My friends, please bear with me...

[melcreada]

because I am going to whine.

Why?

Because I am sooo drained from my job. We have become the 'Young & the Restless' overnight. Terrific drama. I feel like I should be writing all this down to submit somewhere. I have employees having affairs, back-stabbing each other for a promotion, and threatening each other. I have one lovely young lady who has just been terminated for embezzling (I never credited her with the smarts to do something like that).

There's more, but those are the highlights.

I keep thinking, 'I could be at Comic-Con right now, hanging at the WETA booth like a total geek or lounging at the hotel bar, formulating a plan on how best to stalk Elijah Wood and Dom Monaghan.'

I am filled with dread, a heaviness around my heart that I cannot even begin to explain. I want to be daring and silly, devoid of all the ugly human elements that drag us down. I don't want to worry about material things or a boring job.

I want to drop what I'm doing and fly to San Diego. Not just to *squee* over some geeky actors or get crushed in the dork-melee. But to be crazy and young and care-free again.

Ahhh...if only someone would give me a credit card...

Hugs and gentle *noogies* to all my lj posse out there who are wading through this crap.





There is really nothing you must be.
And there is nothing you must do.
There is really nothing you must have.
And there is nothing you must become.
However. It helps to understand that fire burns,
and when it rains, the earth gets wet...

Promise, about the stalking thing? I want to make plans, woman! *grin* Especially if they involve us hanging out at a bar. Whee!

And bless you for that link. I'm off to shut everyone up over there! LOL...

Amen!! ^_~

Hey, do you have a link to bosses suck community? Because I actually like my co-worker... all 2 of them. ^_^

*pets Mel on the head...* Sorry to hear you're having a rough time, hopefully it'll all go away soon... or you can always kick your co-workers in the shin sometime. XD *hugs*

I cross my heart and hope to die promise! We will stalk one day! I'll just show up at your door with a plane ticket to Hollywood and boobie videos for JP (hehe j/k JP ^_~) In LA stalkers are not only tolerated they are cherised ;) And of course there will be no end to the fun at the bar(s) You are still my designated Irish drinking partner right? ;) (hmm A Mexican and Japanese/Pole walk into a bar...hehe)

Heh, heh. Thank you. *squeeze-hugs*

LOL...well, I guess I really belong to sucky boss communities too, since I want to be well-rounded. The employees give me drama, my co-workers give me grief, and my bosses give me Hell. LOL...

*Mel does the furious kick-of-shins at work*

Yay! I can't wait...

Mmm...lovely bars all over Los Angeles...thank goodness our stalk-ees like to drink. I mean, how fun would it be to follow them through an antique fair? Oh, who am I kidding? It would rock! LOL...

Absolutely your number one Irish drinking pardner (as we say in Texas). But I won't drink Guiness. *shudders at the memory*
