Why do people send you an e-mail when you ask them to call you back?
Why do people respond to e-mail messages with text messages?
Why do people respond to phone calls with text messages?
WHAT’S WRONG WITH USING THE PHONE????
Ugh!  This is so freakin’ annoying!!

My graphic and web design classes have been approved for classes through the Workforce Investment Act (WIA).   Know what that means?  It means that my creativity will be taken to a new level which is the perfect complement to my writing skills.  AND, it will help my social media skills, too.  I just don’t know [...]

Ok, the ideas just keep rolling in.  I’m going to need a scroll to keep up with everything. Although I cannot do it right now as I need to continue to focus on my writing business and two blogs, I am certain that things will fall into place as they have done so up this [...]

I want to write something so badly on one of my blogs, but I don’t know how my readers will react to it.  It’s not bad, but it’s not good.  It’s merely an observation, but  I know something will be said.
Also, adding to my frustration is the fact that I actually care about what somebody [...]

I spoke to someone I truly adore and admire a couple days ago.  “They” were telling me that I needed to brand myself.  I know this.  That is what I am working on right now.  It took me three months to figure it out; now, I’m putting my plan into action.
I told “them” that I [...]

My list of wants is rapidly growing. I mentioned this on my other Shorty blog last year, and I am saying it again – I WANT THIS VOICE RECORDER!  It is an Olympus DS-61.

My current recorder is cool, but it’s time to upgrade.
For anyone who is reading this post and actually cares, I am willing [...]

Last night my friend was a victim of home invasion.  She was working when two guys kicked in her front door.  She was home alone; her son was at work.  One of the guys was the father of a young lady he used to date.  In fact, her son saw the dude standing on a [...]

So, I am pissed about this $227 water bill that needs to be paid. My bill has been going up every year. While that is understandable, I am really pissed because I didn’t even water my grass this summer like I should have. WTF??
Then, I have these high ass phone bills. [...]
