I really hate how passive aggressive my grandmother can be. Just heard her talking loudly on the phone to a friend about how my stepmother doesn’t like “us” very much and that is why Dad couldn’t come up for Christmas this year.
No, they didn’t come this year bc Carol has an enormous family of her own in Georgia and they weren’t together last year. It’s...

My family pisses me off.
nikkwhyte:
Especially at the holidays. Everyone is just a little racist, just a little sexist, just a little passive aggressive, just a little ready to snap off on somebody else because they refuse to have their dog strapped in the bed if a truck getting rained on for a 45 minute drive to Stockbridge.
But hey, thems the holidays.
My sweet grandpa said something about “the blacks”...

I have no desire to go to sleep
Because tomorrow is another day of my family giving me shit for going red instead of blonde and grilling me about what happened with my relationship and asking what I want to do with my life.
I have NO answers for you.

I’m sharing a room with twin beds in my grandparents’ house because my brother brought his girlfriend.
His Vietnamese gf who speaks in Vietnamese in her sleep. Loudly.
I tell her this and she asks, “What did I say?” Dunno bitch: I don’t speak Vietnamese!

customer service v. food service
This is an article written by a guy named Art Sobczak, some kind of sales guru. My mother sent it to me as a way to talk about customer service experiences.
She and I have very different takes on this, and I would like to hear yours, as well.

Parents say the silliest things.
Mom: Why is my laptop off?
Me: Because it wasn’t being used. And it isn’t plugged in.
Mom: So did the battery die?
Me: Probably not. Just a setting to conserve energy.
Mom: So how do I turn it on?
Me: …The power button, Mother.

That moment when you realize that you have to find your brother’s annoying girlfriend a Christmas present, since he decided to drag her to grandma’s in Ohio. And you’re flying up in three days.
Oh god.
When it rains, it pours.
Totally had a phone interview for a job at Siemens this evening. I killed it. But if I am invited for a face to face interview in Norcross it will be the first week of January, most likely. And where will I be then? In Savannah. Lol. So logistics could get interesting!
Also: I am getting an iPhone tomorrow morning. And hopefully never using my sad sad flip phone ever again.
Non-dairy powdered creamer is the worst thing that happened to coffee since instant coffee.
Coincidentally, all my mother drinks is instant coffee with that powdered creamer shit.
I'm moving to Savannah at the end of December
And now I need housing. I can stay with a friend and her fiancé till I find my own place, but they don’t want my dog there. So I’d like to find this place sooner rather than later.
I hope this goes well.

Walk While Reading: Gift →
walkwhilereading:
She is his greatest gift. Like the sun, that rises, over blue seas, and grass covered plains, that peaks through snow covered mountains, her brown eyes rise to look at him. He always wanted to have children. As early as he could recall he wanted to be a father. He never knew why, and looking…
This is beautiful. I often worry about what I would accidentally pass on to...

I knew that living with my mother would be bad.
But after the fight tonight, I feel like I just had another breakup.

I’m trying really hard not to let myself fully realize how much I want the job.
…But I could have a Savannah address by January 1.

My Life Is a Deb Talan Song
I think all these aspects of my life already sucked. I just couldn’t see it beyond the safety blanket of my relationship. So now that I yanked the rug out from under me, all I can see is how much NONE of this is what I wanted for myself.
Moving beyond this into the kinds of things I always imagined for my life would be so much easier if I could find another job. I could shave my head,...
