It’s 7pm, do you know where *you* are right now?
Another long day and I’m torn between “TGIF!” and “I’ve got WAY too much work to do still!”
Currently I’m sitting in front of my non-Mac grinning to myself because I know what 9pm will bring: A new episode of Reaper 
YES! It’s about freaking time. I was beginning to grow bored of stale reruns. This of course will occupy my mind this evening and then this weekend I need to fix my e-mail client.
Enough about that! Reaper. It’s not the greatest show on Earth, but these days I’ll take what I can get. As long as it’s not a mansion with a washed up has been having a bunch of mentally unstable skanks vying for their attention or what have you- I’ll watch it.
I’ve also come to realize that perhaps my purpose for being on this planet is to serve as a warning for others.
I can’t recall what prompted the conversation this morning that had me reflecting on where I am in life and what useful advice I can give out to people… but here it is:
I can’t tell you how to have the perfect relationship, a good relationship or even a relationship that lasts a full season… HOWEVER, I can shell out advice on surviving a break up, what to do when you attract losers, how to deal with losers, and how to ultimately be okay going it alone… and how to make wicked voodoo dolls of your ex’s that you can burn and stab over and over and over and over again without dulling your blade or cinging your finger nails.
By observing me you can find out all the things NOT to say or do should you wish your decent guy will just *POOF* away. On the other side of the same coin, you will find all the ways to keep the ones you WANT to go away pestering you until they find another obsession.
I can’t tell you how to have hordes of friends- HOWEVER, I can tell you how to thrive on one or two good ones. How to avoid the toxic group mentalities and how not to wind up in a tsunami of drama. All you need is your own little circle of friends that is composed of mainly lightly cinged voodoo dolls that you made of your ex’s.
I can’t tell you how to get rich/wealthy (what ever you want to call it), HOWEVER, I can show you how to pinch a penny, how to shop a lot on very little and still manage to gain weight although you barely eat, and how to make edible voodoo dolls of your ex’s that you place on a skewer… I must get off the voodoo doll kick.
You get my point though. I may not be an example of how to make it big in the world, but I can be an example or role model of how to make the most of your lack luster life without being an annoying, obnoxious Pollyanna (I actually adored the movie though) type who turns to religion or some unrealistic mentality that could only be obtained by prescription drugs (think kumbayah stuff).
You too can be contently “meh”.
Granted that’s not where I wish to remain in my life and I do want *more* and *better* and at some point *extremely happy goo goo eye love stuff*, but in the meantime if you follow my lead you won’t be led off a cliff or into the dark corners of a depressive state- The latter naturally tends to happen from merely interacting with me.

That is my daily recap and my agenda for this evening. Oooh- I wonder if I should start an advice column. “Real advice for real questions that really want to be answered… really.”
