Humor & Friends....

I consider myself to be a pretty fun and funny gal to be around. In fact my personality is probably my best quality. I always have something wacky to say and 90% of the time people understand my "quick-wit". My true friends are among the 90% of course. Then, there are the people that look at you like you either have 3 heads or are missing the one you were born with. (I like to call them "humor-challenged"....)

I have a good group of very close friends who love me as I am and take me "bad jokes" and all. For these people, I am extremely grateful.

I heard once that "Friends are like flowers- they add color to your life....."

Every last one of my friends bring a different color to my life. Ah yes, on occasion those colors may blur a little, maybe turn dark or even fade away. But they are always there.....somewhere.

Plus, who the hell wants everything sunshine frickin yellow 24/7?? Jeeze, ya might as well have had a frontal lobotomy for cryin out loud!!

I look forward to watching the flowers in my life bloom and I love every last one of them... (even those "wildflowers" that seem to pop in and out of my life every now and again!! Sometimes they are the best ones...lol)

So to finish up here my flower-friends, may you all bloom with the best of them and be in my garden for a very long time!! (well unless you piss me off.....then I'm pretty much going to yank your ass out by the root and toss ya.......but til then, bloom on friends.........bloom on..........)

hee hee hee ;o)

Small Rant....

Kind of a small rant today ladies and gents.....

So today I am reminded of a little saying I learned about 11 years ago.....

"WORK"........just another word for "JOB"........which is just another way of shortening the phrase "Just.Over.Broke."...........

It ain't Shakespeare........but that's my feeling today..........Thanks for checkin in with me!

Timelines & Age...

(*steps up onto her soapbox*EH-HEM!!*)

So lets touch on the subject of age here for a minute..... Now, to some people "30" isn't a big deal right? (most of those people are about 31+ and already had the mental breakdown that "30" seems to create......so its no longer a "big deal" to them.....) Well 30 is "sort of" a big deal to me. Its a landmark birthday and should be celebrated and not loathed right? Now, I'm not so sure I am going to have the big "mental breakdown".......I had one at 25.......its was lovely........."quarter of a century old" and doing the "where is my life headed and why isn't it where I needed it to be by now??" speech over and over in my head........good times. No wish to re-create that one thanks.......



I heard a quote once that said "life happens when you are busy making other plans"...... How true.... So my new "plan" is to not have one. So what.....I'm 30.....(in 2 weeks, 11hours and 45mins.....) big whoop....... all good things come to those who wait right? (well I say 30 years is looooooong enough to wait.......so the way I see it, it can only get better from here.......just call me "positive-Polly" from now on.....)

(*steps down off her soapbox* politely bows & flips off all the people who say I should be afraid of 30!*)

Welcome to my page!!!
Lets see, where do I start? I got into the "blogging thing" basically as advice from my sister......(thanks Kim......now you are stuck reading this thing....ha ha!)

This is just meant to be sort of a "Day In The Life Of Nicole" type of thing........nothing too exciting.......

So a little about me:My name is Nicole (or Nikki....I respond to either) and I am currently about to be 30 (*gulp*) years old. I am at that point in my life where I am re-evaluating certain things. Looking for a new job, a new place to live, taking the certain people and things out of my life that are not "necessary" (or healthy for me for that matter) anymore. I guess it comes with age...... I don't really expect to become this 100% different person, but I do hope to better myself in a few areas of my life. Now, I also don't expect anyone to actually read this and then suggest I win a Pulitzer. It's pretty much for me to do some chatting about life in general.

Enjoy!
