Thank goodness it's March!

There's something about February...it's the shortest month of the year, but it feels like the longest. I also hate it when I expect one more week and don't get it. Gosh it's frustrating.

So what do I have to report on this time? Nothing really. I'm the most boring person in the world. I swear I am not cool anymore. While yes, I am ridiuclously funny and witty (they are two different things), I feel like I've lost all my cool within the last few years.

I know you're asking yourself, what's her reasoning? Whenever I catch up with someone I have nothing to report...
1) My job? Eh, it's okay - but do you really want to hear about how annoying powerpoint is? How I feel stupid on a daily basis because I didn't know forever is really "for ever"? Or how no one at work is happy so I feel I have to double my efforts in making people laugh and have therefore resorted to physical injury? Last week I walked into a wall to make someone feel superior. Did it work? Of course it did.. "Gosh Tennille you are stupid." ah, my life is complete at work- a constant barrage of insults for the sake of making everyone feel better about themselves. Awesome.
2) My dating life. HA! It's non-existent. Well, let me take that back. I went on a date with a guy from work about a month ago. It was interesting. First, wasn't expecting it to turn into a date (it originally started as lunch together at work). Second, he's 26 and immature. Not once did he ask me a question about myself! My friend Katie says this will continue to happen until I'm 40. Men just don't ask questions. It's like too much work for them. Anyway, he didn't ask me about myself, he smokes pot daily (times 10) and he's going to quit his job in September and go on a 2 year bike ride. I have nothing wrong with that last point except we are obviously in two different places in life.
3) My family. We're good - nothing serious or fun to report. Porter is 4 and he's...ah...a 4-year old boy. Enough said.

So decision made - I'm not cool anymore. Therefore I say to all of you who read this - yes all 3 of you - what makes one cool? I got a tat and a puppy. Does that make me cool? I have a blog - I just don't write in it. I have red hair, which is grounds for interesting (and not that Minnesota interesting that really means "I don't know how to be polite so I'll say interesting"). I drive a Saturn. I have more friends on facebook than I actually hang out with. I work for a agriculture/meat company and can't get myself to eat meat anymore. I have one of the coolest diseases you could think of :)

Okay, enough pitying. I know I'm generally cool, but I want to be super cool. Just not sure how to start. I'm open to suggestions...

  2. I think you're the bomb, T. I also think it's difficult to give yourself a fair assessment when we are living through the tail end of the winter. Hold out optimism for the Spring being way better for your point of view.
