You're more than welcome

You know the saying "You're welcome" that someone says after they have been thanked by someone else? Well you also know how some people say "You're more than welcome."

Well today I was working and the guys I work with were discussing this. Here is the conversation:

Andrew: "Thanks"
Jake: "You're more than welcome."
Andrew: "What's more than welcome? I mean what is the next level after welcome?"
Megan: "Socialism."

I meet so many interesting people at work and we had a lovely time contributing our opinions on people's white boards. :D

This is your life

So I had this really weird dream. Here it goes play by play.

I am walking down one of the isle in some store (Wal-Mart maybe or Target) and I have medium size Simba and Nala stuffed animals under my left arm. As I'm walking I hear someone say "I guess she's buying that thing for her son" (referring to the Simba) but another person says "No, look at the girl one, so maybe it's for both". (This makes me think of how gender is socially constructed, I guess I am learning something in that class) I then walk up to the register and the lady looks at me very rudely. Then she goes "You know how we feel about people pretending to be Santa Clause in order to meet the President" (ok, wtf?!?!) and she asks me to show her my ID. I do and she obviously doesn't believe that it's real. I can't really blame her since I take a look at the ID and there it is on the top, the words Interview With A Vampire and I'm pretty sure there was a photo of Christian Slater instead of me.

And that's where the dream ended or I woke up. I don't really recall, but all I know is is that you can't make this shit up. haha. :D

Obsession

By definition obsessed means "having or showing excessive or compulsive concern with something". Now when you hear the words obsessed or having an obsession with usually means that the person is probably a psycho. Like stalking the person they are obsessed with by climbing in their windows or following them around and hiding in bushes or some other creepy shit like having an entire wall covered in photos that you took of them without their knowledge.

Now it has come to my attention that people seem to think I am "obsessed" with certain things. Well I'm not. I do not stalk people. I do not find out where they live and stay outside their house in the bushes secretly taking photos of them. I do not know where they are every second of every day. I do however have a slight.....let's say fondness for certain people.

That's it. I am fond of those people. NOT obsessed.

Now that that is cleared up. Let's eat cake while wearing a fedora. :D

BS or straight up true?

I was watching this movie and a line came up that said:

"Every woman has the exact love life she wants." -The Wedding Date

This may be true in the sense that if a woman (or a man, that was just the exact quote) is very to themselves and is reserved then they will never put themselves out there and will never end up in a relationship. It may also be true that if a man or a woman does not find it worth it to be in a relationship or has commitment issues then they will not find themselves in a relationship either. But do you think that those people who ARE in relationships want them to be bad ones? For example:

Do you think Rihanna wanted to get beaten by Chris Brown?
Do you think Elin Nordegren wanted her husband Tiger to have multiple affairs?
Do you think that chick on Oprah wanted her husband to sleep with guys and give her HIV?
Do you think the chick from this movie wanted her fiance to sleep with her sister multiple times?

I don't think so. So my question is to you.

Do YOU think that every person has the exact love life they want?

Act your age

God dammit!

I fucking hate Miley Cyrus.

1) She is a 17 year old girl with teeny bopper fans, you would think she would act more appropriate
2) She dresses like a whore in every single video now
3) SHE IS FUCKING 17!!!!
4) When she's older she can just as much of a skank as she wants to but right now when her biggest audience is your average 12 year old, she should really think about the way she acts
5) I get it that she wants to change the style of her music to appeal to a bigger audience but wearing clothes (or should I say lackthereof) is not going to get the attention she wants
6) She is a role model whether she likes it or not. She started out on Disney and that's what is slowly murdering her and that is why she has to act this way
7) Want proof of her provocative behavior? Just go to these links.
Her LAP DANCE video:

Her new video "Who Owns My Heart"

8) She disgusts me and
9) FUCK YOU MILEY CYRUS!!

He has a point

It is true that there are issues out there that we only think apply to certain groups of people. Take breast cancer awareness month. Whose to say that it only affects women? Because it doesn't. Honestly, it didn't even cross my mind that men are effected as well. It's just a world wide thing to associate breast cancer with women. So I have thought long and hard about both sides and just so you know I'm not saying this just to agree with the person who got heated up about the issue. I however do agree with him and know he has a point. (Please believe that I am not trying to get into good graces with him, (not that I was out of them) it's just something I was thinking about and I have to put it out there (I mean I didn't even know what the whole "I like it on...." even meant in the first place))

I just mean that issues, like he said, should not be gender specific or any kind of specific. Anything that is wrong with the world effects every single living, breathing, creature on said world. Like we're learning in G & WS 102, women fought for equal rights and made changes to their lives. But even though it was women who were fighting for these things did this not also effect men? Of course it did. It effected men in just as many ways as it did women.

All I'm saying is that we should take everyone into consideration. We'll all important and we should be treated as such.

That is all.

Peace up, A-Town down. (Yeah, I wrote it)

"I would die for you. But I won't live for you." - The Fountainhead

In order for you to be there for another person you have to be there for yourself first. You have to live your own life and make your own decisions. It's up to you to make a choice to share that with other people.

If you live for someone else then who is living for you?

It Has it's Perks

Dear Charlie,

Thank you.

I hope to one day feel as you did riding in the car with Sam and Patrick listening to "Asleep" by the Smiths. I hope to one day feel infinite.

Love always,
Katie
