Day & Night

When I'm tired I get rather aggressive. The other night someone, who shall remain nameless, made a snotty comment that I just wasn't in the mood for and so I bursted out with "what do you know?!" And well you can imagine...I become cranky and just nod off on you. However, I don't sleep for more than 6 hours usually and I have very busy days. Most days 10-12 hours of work work, then a couple of hours of discussion boards, blogs, etc. I eat, watch the World Cup FIFA Competition and flop.

There are times when I am downright pleasant, you'd think I want to become your love slave. No. I am friendly, not for hire. Is it my fault that I pay careful attention to people's needs, women's as well as men's and they all get the wrong idea. Gee, why can't anyone be nice these days, they automatically think I want something. False. I love to see people happy. And since I'm such a pragmatic person I sometimes go overboard and make the boys lose it. One time I was an business workshop with a fine group of gentlemen that dined at my table. Wishing to make their lives easier I bring the bottle of wine at the buffet table to ours and they raise their eyebrows saying "my aren't we attentive". Dude, I wanted to tell him, you're not the first and you won't be the last...I don't want to get in your pants. He is beautiful by the way. That was during lunch and then in the early evening the cocktail follows and we already had 2 glasses of wine with lunch. Champagne, prawns and he spreads his legs and stands in a soldier position yet relaxed as if to say, I'm enjoying this. But, then he interjects something about his wife as if he suddenly remembered that he had one as he fingered his wedding band. He didn't even know that my husband was standing right behind me.

To be continued...
