It's all in the mind...

Other's Minds
I had a traing associate complain to me that she was upset because a client of hers hadn't provided us a piece of information, and that it was preventing her from getting paid. I wanted to tell her that it wasn't the client that prevented her from getting paid, but rather it was her not going to work that was preventing her from getting paid...i wish people would stop pointing the finger at other people. Then she said that she'd be more motivated to work when she got the check under her belt (she is new and it would be her first check). I wanted to tell her that she would be more motivated to work if she just shut the cake-hole and went to work...but that wouldn't be nice...it would be true, but it wouldn't be nice.

I Hate Tax Time
Between now and the 15th of april...ugh...i have more receipts than toilet paper in my place right now...and i just bought a costco size toilet paper container...so that's a lot of paper no matter how you slice it...or unroll it. Speaking of taxes, i totally forgot to give someone a book i told them i'd give them called "Tax Free Retirement." If she is reading this, first, she should be working :-P, but second, i promise to get you the book when i get back from Hawaii...along with the postcard, flower lei, and coconut...not. In the meanwhile, there's still the movie "300" as well as "The Secret" to watch. For anyone that's confused about what i'm talking about, give it a try...read the book and watch the two movies...then you will be even more confused...but there is a link between the three...good luck in finding it.

I Can See Clearly Now The Rain Is Gone
I can also play that song on my ukulele...yay for me. Finally the weather is lightening up. A bad case of strep throat going around these days for some reason...i have managed to escape it, and once i'm in hawaii (if i can make it there safely), that becomes california's problem, not mine =). Speaking of hawaii, does anyone need anything? Not that any request placed with me will be fulfilled, but blogging by yourself is sometimes like talking to the wall...which is good sometimes, but can get a bit dry (no pun inteded, but you probably didn't get it anyway...you know...dry wall...yeah, not that funny O_o).

Wow...the day has seriously turned into a nice day...maybe i'll hit the driving range (again no pun intended on a very dry joke)...always a good way to relax, refocus, and reflect...ahh...weekend is almost here...off i go to sprint across the finish line instead of limping across it =)

Have a great weekend and i'll see you in hawaii...or should i say "YOU'LL see ME in hawaii" =)

ALOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHA!
