I Must Confess

I'm a hypocrite. Yep.

I'm damn near blew a freakin' gasket just now over an "I can barely speak english" customer service person who I just had to try to speak to. I could go on and on about this, and I do mean ON and ON. 90% OF THE PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING TO BE CALLING YOUR COMPANY SPEAK ENGLISH AS THEIR FIRST LANGUAGE. PUT A FUCKING "ENGLISH IS MY FIRST LANGUAGE" PERSON ON THE DAMNED PHONE. FUCK!!!!

It seems like it was just yesterday that I wrote about not letting stupid get to you. Oh wait, it WAS just yesterday. I fucking HATE stupid people. Scooter (who the blog was pretty much written about) even wrote to me yesterday in reply to my blog and he basically said "you know people irritate the hell outta you too and you know it's a lot easier to say don't let them bother you than it is to actually not let them bother you". My dearest Scooter, you're right and I must confess that today, I feel like a total hypocrite......I let stupid people ruin a minute of my day today. (Stupid non-english speakin' person).
Over the years, I have obtained the fantastic ability to take people for exactly what they are so I can just sit back and watch other's stupidity instead of letting their stupidity affect me. Well, ok, so from time to time I do have someone standing in front of me in line at Walmart and they're pullin' out all the sales ads from all the different stores making the cashier price match EVERY freakin' thing and for a fleeting moment I seriously consider beating the shit outta them with the little grocery separator thing, BUT who doesn't think about doing that?

There are certain stupid people/situations that I will never be able to deal with without one of my eyes twitching. The insane amount of stupidity that comes from certain people/situations totally can drag me down, BUT I'll just pitch a fit for a minute or two, then I'll let it roll off my back.

I'm not sure how it is exactly that I have come to deal with stupidity. I know I have adopted several different coping skills over the years. Sometimes I can just take a deep breath and move on. Other times, I close my eyes and push a finger into one of my eyeballs as hard as I can bare and I breathe deep. Then *poof* the stupid is gone.

I can only hope that as the stupid gets even stupider (yeah, I said stupider, so what?) I can continue to cope. Every morning on my in to work I see these three ancient Asian ladies and they're always doin' all this awesome weird shit. They lean up against trees and bang the butts into the tree, they sit on the bench and clap as they talk and they do all these windmill lookin' things with their arms. I wonder, are they just trying to deal with the stupid too?

I just totally screamed laughed to the point of my boss came in my office to ask me if everything was OK! The grocery seperator thing has crossed my mind more than once! Stupidity is probably my #1 pet peeve as well. I dunno why I just now saw your comment could be that I have been temporarily been stupid. Yes I want an apron send me your address in a message on myspace and I will send you the $ for it along with my address. And the Hello Kitty ring is awesome. I got it from QVC tried it on side by side with the real ring and actually it is better. Rocky is so the best~!

East Atlanta Strut 2010

I've been sewin' my fingers off tryin' to get ready for the East Atlanta Strut . It was the first show I had ever done and it was a BLAST! Bein' used to your standard kinda craft shows, you know the ones.....wood cut into silly stuff, marsh mellow guns, lace and potpourri, you can imagine my excitement when I was accepted to do the Strut, which ain't your mama's craft show. After three years, I've decided to give it a go again. I've really focused on my bears since that's what I really enjoy makin' and it's what everyone seemed to like best. You definitely won't find anything else like 'em out there! They're all sad lookin' and junk.....and people wanna hug 'em when they see 'em. I started sewin' these guys three years ago and after readin' an article in a magazine about a man that went to war, was burned badly while there and came home to his finance, married her and made babies with her despite all his s

Fluffidermy!

I would say 90% of my friends are into buyin' taxidermy. The stuff that lined the walls of my family's homes is more popular than ever! The difference bein' that my family shot that junk themselves and proudly displayed their trophies and ate the rest.... Seein' as how the closest I get to huntin' is huntin' the best deals possible on groceries and I can barely afford toilet paper these days taxidermy ain't gonna find itself to the already awesome walls of my house anytime soon. HOWEVER...... You know, I've been makin' my Battle Scrarred Bears again and in the midst of all the hubub over taxidermy, I decided to start puttin' their sweet little heads on plaques.....and voila!......my own dadgum taxidermy........FLUFFIDERMY!!! I've seen lots of other crafty made....uhhhh....idermy, and even proudly display feltidermy by girlsavage on one of my walls. Fluffidermy is my spin on the awesome that is stuffed craft ...idermy!.....and dammit....ev
