A Sad Life (10/4/07)

The writers of Living Single hit it dead-on when they said "you live; you die; and if you're lucky, you get to do some good shopping in between." Granted, many never get to experience this, because they don't know how to shop. Have you seen the clothing many people in this world wear out in public? Think about it, they have to get them from somewhere...but I digress. Back to Living Single; no one had spoken truer words before and no one has since.

Yes, I know it takes money to have a certain "style," but it doesn't take money to have taste. Make it work, people! If you need help, be like Tweet...call me.

A Sad Life...many people have sad lives for various reasons. Most of which requires a licensed professional, a leather couch, and some tequila. Although, most can be cured by people just going out, getting out of their everyday routine, and having some good-ol' fashioned f-u-n!

I'm going to tell you about my Sad Life Tuesday; please note that it is 3am on Thursday. I had a busy Wednesday, and am booked this weekend...so this is my only time to write this. See if you can find the sad factor and the humor.

You know your life is SAD when...

1) You can't find the bullet/list option in this word processing blog editor

2) You don't like to work, yet you're looking for a job

3) You can't get an interview, but those who's resumes and cover letters you write...get interviews AND job offers

4) The job you're looking for, neither you nor the people you know knows anyone who can utilize (or better yet, AFFORD) your services

5) You don't grocery shop at your normal high-end/clean grocery stores because you've invoked a strategic spending strategy; so when you're in dire need you dress incognitoly (like the locals) and go to the local/dirty grocery stores only to be afraid of catching something so you high-tail it to your normal grocery store (after you change clothes, of course).

6) The saddest point of all. The above mentioned spending strategy limits your spending at major book retailers, so you end up reading a free book obtained from your former employer. Yes, it gets worse...it's a 50Cent/G-Unit publication. Can you say ghetto?...and sad???

Whew! That was all from one day. Tuesday was a slow day.

Have you ever had those days where you thought your life was sad? Wondered where you had taken a wrong turn? Baffled your mind trying to figure out why Calgon hadn't taken you away? Speaking of Calgon...I need a vacation; where should I go? Who wants to sponsor it?

[closing the doors, locking the locks, pulling the shades]

one note...two words:

On Holiday.
