It's snowing sideways

"My hair has gone flat. Man, I hate that."
 
Suppose I should have taken the bobby pins out, last night but that was too much effort and there was nobody here to help out. So they stayed in. I guess I'll have to get them out today, before I shower. Meanwhile I'm staying away from open flames. With the amount of hairspray in my hair, that's probably a really good idea.

I won a gift certificate to Sportchek at the work party yesterday. I don't know how much it's for - I  haven't opened it yet, but whatever it is, will be useful. I need trackpants to wear, so I can keep walking! Another 60km in 2 days in September after all. Oh, so yeah, anyone who is thinking that they really want to give me a gift for Christmas or my birthday, but they missed or don't know what? Donations to my fundraising for the weekend walk would be amazing!  I need to raise another $2000, after all. You can find the link on the side of my LJ page. Thanks!

Other than that, I met the spouses of some of the folks who report to me at work, which was nice. I discovered that they are lovely people, as I expected. The DJ was great - he had toys. A huge limbo stick full of jelly beans that one of my peers got to keep, Glow sticks, and maracas - I never am sure how to spell that, but they are fun anyway. I noticed that everyone seemed to be having a great time, at least those brave souls who made it. A lot of people were late - the traffic was horrible coming from the west. For me, actually, it wasn't too bad. The lake effect snow was more to the west than the east and that made the difference. Today though, the whole area is covered in a blanket of white snow with lots more falling from the dull grey sky.

And so yeah, today is officially a Snow Day.

GUYS POINT OF VIEW!

You might agree with it, but when it actually happens 99% of girls don't realize it 'til it is too late and that guy who did it is so frustrated that he has moved on to someone who will take notice.

From a guys point of view:

- We don't care if you talk to other guys.

- We don't care if you're friends with other guys. But when you're sitting next to us, and some random guy walks into the room and you jump up and tackle him without even introducing us, yeah, it pisses us off.
- It doesn't help if you sit there and talk to him for ten minutes without even acknowledging the fact that we're still there.

- We don't care if a guy calls you, but at 2 in the morning we do get a little concerned. Nothing is that important at 2 a.m. that it can't wait till the morning.

- Also, when we tell you you're pretty/beautiful/gorgeous/cute/ stunning, we freaking mean it.

- Don't tell us we're wrong. We'll stop trying to convince you.

- The sexiest thing about a girl is confidence. Yeah, you can quote me.

- Don't be mad when we hold the door open.

- Take Advantage of the mood I am in.

- LET US PAY FOR YOU! DON'T 'FEEL BAD! We enjoy doing it. It's expected. Smile and say 'thank you.'

- Kiss us when no one's watching. If you kiss us when you know somebody's looking, we'll be more impressed.

- You don't have to get dressed up for us.

- If we're going out with you in the first place, you don't have to feel the need to wear the shortest skirt you have or put on every kind of makeup you own.

- We like you for WHO you are and not WHAT you are.

- Honestly, I think a girl looks more beautiful when she's just in her pj's or my t-shirt and boxers, not all dolled up.

- Don't take everything we say seriously.

- Sarcasm is a beautiful thing. See the beauty in it.

- Don't get angry easily.

- Stop using magazines/media as your bible.

- Don't talk about how hott Morris Chesnutt, Brad Pitt, or Jesse McCartney is in front of us. It's boring, and we don't care. You have girlfriends for that.

- Whatever happened to the word 'handsome'/'beautiful'.

- I'd be utterly stunned by a girl who greeted me with 'Hey handsome!' instead of 'Hey baby/ stud/ cutie/ sexy' or whatever else you can think of. On the other hand im not sayin i wouldn't like it ether.

- Girls, I cannot stress this enough: IF YOU AREN'T BEING TREATED RIGHT BY A GUY, DON'T WAIT FOR HIM TO CHANGE. DITCH HIS SORRY DISGRACE-TO-THE-MALE-POPULATION ASS, AND FIND SOMEONE WHO WILL TREAT YOU WITH UTTER RESPECT.

Someone who will honor your morals.
Someone who will make you smile when you're at your lowest.
Someone who will care for you even when you make mistakes.
Someone who will love you, no matter how bad you make them feel.
Someone who will stop what they're doing just to look you in the eyes....and say 'i love you' ..........AND ACTUALLY MEAN IT!
