That's me in the Stick Figure World

Refraining from Using Certain Words

Dear Readers:

A male friend asking for advice referred my dating life "bad luck". I DONT LIKE THAT. I refuse to use these negatively charged words in my vocabulary. It inspires pity. A warrior princess dont like that! I sent him a piece of my mind about the power of words. I breathe and think only success and lots of love around me.

Which is worst - getting dumped or getting fired?

Hola

Both "releases" can elicit depression and emotional upset, though, one may be due to laborial performance and the other due to self intrinsic traits.

I strongly believe in periodical evaluation of the input and output of relationship including any pet peeves and any other behavioral ticks that may become major sisyphus stones, just like a report card for scholastic performance or annual review at a job helps determine performance at some level. (Though it may open some can of worms)

This way, it may prevent a sudden shock at the moment of "relational release" and opens up communication channels. Imagine that if one partner was upset about how her boyfriend never said thank you and breaks up with him but he may have been totally oblivious of this little behavioral tick and becomes upset at the end why he was never informed so he could correct it!

So what do you think?

Where is Elmo?

I spent this weekend in the pursuit of Elmo TMX. Its NOT for me! Its for my 4 year old little cousin who lives in sunny Puerto Rico. My cousin text messaged me the other day an urgent message: "All the elmos are sold out in PR until next year." So, since I love this little girl as my surrogate daughter, I want to make her happy. I saw an Elmo on ebay and overstock and they sold it for over $200 plus!

The numerous big toy stores dont even sell it online!
