I'm going to hate myself in the morning...

Well, maybe I won't hate me...but chances are someone will. These days it's not a question of me maybe being a miserable in the morning, it's something you can take to the bank. I know that there are a ton reasons that I could quote (read excuses here), but there are just as many reasons to be in a great mood. Personally I've really always thought it wasn't me, it was them. You know THEM. Those people who look at you like you just started speaking to them in a foreign language when you ask them a reasonable question. "Who put that there?", "Where's my stapler?", "What are you lookin at?" I was recently enlightened after reading an article on Greg Allman! Who knew Greg would be my inner guru? Certainly not me. One look at his pic and I couldn't help thinking that we could have been separated at birth! That is, except for a few years (his), a few pounds (mine), sex...(he has it - I don't..nah, he's male I'm not) and the facial hair. Oh wait, he does have a beard now! He's the pretty one:) His quote on being married for something like the 6th time (that's where earlier the sex assumption came from), was "I'm beginning to think that maybe it's me". I had a sudden flashback of co-workers avoiding me in the morning with a kind of "weave and duck" defence. I think the word's out...don't make eye contact and maybe she'll leave you alone. No such luck I'm sorry to say. You just have to let me get it out of my system so that we can all move on with the rest of our happy day! My opening line of "you know what bugs me?" is now greeted with a kind of "deer in the headlights" look from glazed over eyes that subconsciously dart to the clock on the wall as they utter...uh... no? At the very least I'm going to have to change my approach if I expect to ever have an audience again... and oh yes, I do. I prefer to look at myself as a person with strong opinions who wants to engage you in stimulating conversation,...not just someone who wants to argue..right? Well am I right? Just nod your head and as you duck and weave and I'll make my way to my next suspecting victim...
till next time..I'll say Wen
