A Veritable Buffet of Thoughts

Did you hear the one about the size 4, 5'10", 120lb model who was fired for being too fat?
Evidently Ralph Lauren just couldn't stomach such a "large" woman on their runways. I want to take her out for wine, and cake and tell her to forget them. The whole fashion industry disgusts me. I'm for health, and personal happiness. That's it.

Yesterday I went to the grocery store. As I was pulling into the spot next to the cart return, a woman, oblivious to my presence, pushed her shopping car to the return. Instead of pushing her cart all the way in, she left it jutting out, partially blocking the space so that I had to put my car in reverse and search for another parking space. This in itself, wasn't a problem. I wasn't in a hurry and I don't mind walking further. What shocked me was her absolute laziness. How difficult would it have been to push her cart further in, to simply take a second of her time to do a little bit more than the bare minimum.

As I walked past the cart return I moved her cart so that someone else could have the space. A little courtesy people. Please.

Cute bf is going to be gone for 11 days in October. *sigh* Our first real time apart. I told him I'm going to dye my hair and get a dog while he's gone.

I am SO very tired of having my phone calls to customer service outsourced to India and other countries. (and YES I confirmed with the agent on the phone that she was in fact, in India). The communication was so difficult that I had to hang up. We simply could not understand each other. Frustrating? Yes. Especially when the unemployment rate here in the U.S. is 9.8%. Lets bring some of these jobs home.

When I win the Mega Millions I'm going to proceed like this:

1. Get a money manager
2.Pay off student loans
3.Pay off car, and get the car I really want.
4.Give money to family.
5. Keep my job. I like it.
6. Make plans to travel to 2 amazing places every year.
7. Find a charity to really get involved with. Time & Money.
8. Find someone who cannot afford college and set up a fund for them.I know how hard it is.
9. SAVE.
