thursday?

my friend julia said i should start writing a blog. i'll have to figure out what to put here, but it does seem like a good idea since i spend countless hours at work reading celebrity gossip and trying to find new and interesting internet sites. i will probabyl use thise blog to gripe about things that annoy me and of those there are many. if you're not into that...if that's not your cup of tea, you should probably not read any further. oh. i'll also be using elipses A LOT...they are my favorite punctuation mark and the only one that i use incorrectly.

this is fun. it's like therapy except you don't have to change or work at making yourself better...it's just typing and being amused at my own exploits.

tonight i am hosting a happy hour with my two friends at this club in dc. we just started a promotions company called the non-prophet$. clever, eh? the only problem is that there's this other MC that calls himself that and we're worried he's gonna start a sharks and jets type rumble with us for the rights to the name.

i have to work tonight until late and i am seriously bummed about it. i talked to my boss about it and she said, "i don't wanna sound like a hardass, but you have to come to the meeting." is it just me or are all prefaces like that completely and utterly ridiculous. i mean, obvioulsly you DO wanna sound like a hardass or you wouldn't have mentioned that.

speaking of annoying prefaces, it really annoys me when people feel the need to preface themselves with their affiliation in order to lend legitimacy to the bogus statement that is about to follow. let me give and example: "as a long-time dc resident, i know that marion barry will be good for this city." some of my other favorites are "as a black woman..." and the ultimate one...wait for it..."as a college graduate." that last one really is the worst. i mean...why would you say that. congratufuckinglations. do you wear your cap and gown around at home when you're feeling down?

okay, that's it for now. see, i told you. just griping. tomorrow i'll write something cheery. i promise.
