Someone May Die

11:40 AM Edit This 11 Comments »
I have The Great Irritation today. It happens once a month. You figure that one out. Everything anyone does or says? Makes my blood boil. Makes me want to do things like hit. Or yell. The good doctor was using MY computer ALL MORNING to search for new race horses. And used MY phone ALL MORNING to talk to his guys in Kentucky about all the new colts. AND he was talking so loud, I couldn't even hear myself think. I tried and tried to calm the fire by sitting in the file room reading a magazine, but nothing worked. He's got a huge, brand new large screen Mac in his office with a phone line of his own, but he doesn't like going back there. He gets too LONELY. There may be a bloodbath today.

Here's the update on my dating life: Version 5.0 is e-mailing and calling me. Version 6.0 is e-mailing me. Oh, and army guy who will not get a number? He's back. I met him online about five months after Jason died when he was home on leave from Iraq, and when he went back, we e-mailed daily - many times a day. I figured I was doing my duty to God and my country by communicating with a service man that I'd never met while he was on active duty. Shortly before he was to come home, I lost all contact with him. It's been almost two years. He found me again a couple weeks ago. It's been fun to catch up. We might even meet after all this time.

Damn. You have tons of options dont you!

Well, this from a girl who didn't think she even had ONE.

Options are good, then you can find a really good one and not have to just settle for something less than the best.

And yeah, I would not cope well if Dr. Boss parked his rear in my spot when he has a spot of his own. Hrumph.

If Doc is in your spot, I think it's reasonable to be in his.

It always seems to me that people talk louder during that time of the month. That always drives me NUTS!

I should actually be caged until it's over.

Sort of like what they do with werewolves.

Magazines suck when you could be reading blogs.

I hope you have a flow chart (no, not that kind of flow chart) to help you keep all these men straight!
