Plays Well With Others

Ashes, Ashes …

I’m over my Valentine’s Day tyraid and can now be nice again. I hope you all did something really fantastic with your significant others, even if I dont really believe in the holiday … right now.

I know having to see the truckloads of flowers coming into the office building, nearly made me feel like I was in a mortuary, but that’s just me.

The Diary project is coming along swimmingly. I finished drafting my spec report and submitted it today. I’m not really a technical writer, but it’s my first shot at it, so I’m just hoping it won’t get torn up in front of my face.

I like writing, and that’s one reason I enjoy this journal. At the same time, I’m very nervous when I have to let someone else read something I’ve written. I dont know why, it’s just something about having them read it, and then maybe having them feel it isn’t good enough. I think I’m an okay writer, not that there isn’t room for improvement. I think, because I enjoy doing it, I dont want it to be ruined by someone’s insensitive comments.

So, anyway, I’ve submitted the report and am awaiting feedback. I’m really leaning with the current provider, but have a problem. I’ve mentioned how one of our Vice Presidents owns a diary company, and have a feeling some of my superiors are going to side with him. That would leave me alone fighting for the current provider, because I feel it’s the best for the people using it. I mean, they are just thinking about the politics, about how if they side with him, then they can look good for the VP. I’m thinking more about what’s in the best interest of the users. Of course, I could be totally wrong.

I’m also working on developing a music store. We’re going to be selling music CD’s to people and I’m developing the store for it. It’s actually really easy, because the store is already developed, I just have to design our side of it. So, I’ve been laying out little pictures of CD’s and then some descriptions next to them …

Did I ever tell you how much I love my job? I really do. I mean, at my last job, I was laying out text and charts for a boring computer type magazine. Now, I’m creating diary programs, and making music stores, and working on really cool projects, plus making more money than I’ve ever made before. Woohoo.

Did you take the tree test in the last entry? Well, I was an Ash Tree, because I was born May 25th. Here’s my description:

ASH TREE (the Ambition) – uncommonly attractive, vivacious, impulsive, demanding, does not care for criticism, ambitious, intelligent, talented, likes to play with its fate, can be egoistic, very reliable and trust-worthy, faithful and prudent lover, sometimes brains rule over the heart, but takes partnership very seriously.

What does uncommonly attractive mean? Does that mean I’m drop dead gorgeous? Hmm … I dont think I agree with that. I dont think I’m butt ugly, but not drop dead gorgeous either.. I’m probably average.

Vivacious? I dont understand vivacious … it means full of animation and spirit. I dont feel very vivacious lately.. I actually feel more tired. I’m always tired.

Impulsive? I can agree with this. I’m very impulsive. When I think of something, I do it immediately without much thought to the results.

Demanding? This makes me laugh. I’m probably the least demanding person on the face of the earth, well, except for myself. I’m pretty demanding of myself, but totally not of other people.

Does not care for criticism? Well, who like criticism. I can usually deal with it. I mean I dont care to hear it, but it only helps in the end, if explained properly. It’s all in how the person delivers the criticism.

Ambitious? Eager, wanting power. Um, like I want power. I want to rule the entire world, but I dont think I’m that power hungry. Just put me on a pedestal and shutup …

Intelligent? Well, I guess I’m intelligent. I mean, I know stuff. I’m not great with trivia, and little pieces of knowledge.

Talented? Well, I’ll pat myself on the back. Look at my beautiful web page. Okay, I’m full of crap, but I guess we all have talents.

Likes to play with it’s fate? Erm, I’m not sure about this.

Can be egoistic? Oh, yeah, that’s me, mr. big head. I’m so full of myself.

Very reliable and trustworthy? Okay, so I’m mr. reliable and trustworthy. That makes you tons of friends. Oh, Greg, he’ll do anything.

Faithful and prudent lover? Erm, I think I’ll take the fifth on this one. You’ll just have to experience the love machine to find out. 🙂

Brains rule over the heart? Well, yeah. As you can tell, I’m always working, instead of being involved in a relationship.

… but takes partnership very seriously? This is right on. When I am in a relationship, it’s the most important thing in the world. It’s just getting to that point.

It’s spanish class night. Woohoo. I love that class. It’s fun. I still need to drop my other one, or they’ll give me an F in the class even though I never attended.
