the beauty of shirley

i hate chelsea handler and don't think she's funny but i love this clip because it's shirley manson she's interviewing. and she looks gorgeous and is as sharp and observant and cool as ever.
 

so after two days working independently in my new job position, so far it has been a lot of phone work which i was kind of dreading and hoping that that wouldn't be the majority of my day but that's what it turned out to be. and it was determined that the new hires were not ready to work from home yet so i'm gong back into the office next week which really sucks. i was working hard and hoping that i would be told i was ready to work from home, but no such luck. the job kind of sucks, but it sucks less than working for my old boss so i'm not going to complain. at this point i know all corporate type jobs suck and at this point in my life, i'm just trying to find the one that sucks the least.

i don't want to go into the office because of my terrible allergies, and i hope it really does rain this weekend so that some of that pollen washes away. i haven't felt motivated to exercise lately and i know i have to get to that, as well as other chores around my place. i have 3 family events going on over the next three weekends so i have to get in as much quiet, relaxation time as i possibly can right now. i wish there was a cure for allergies so i would never have to spend another mothers day sneezing and with my eyes irritated while trying to enjoy my family get together. i also have 3 weddings to attend this year and there's something about getting dressed for formal events that really bugs me. i'm just a homebody at heart and prefer to be comfortable.

and i just don't know but going to bridal showers and bachelorette parties are just not my idea of a good time. its all kind of tedious, but i'm going to have to go to those for at least one of the weddings. such is life i guess. i have to save money to buy my dress for that wedding as well, as i am one of the bridesmaids. i guess i'm lucky not to have many close girlfriends, otherwise events like this would probably be a yearly thing at my age, not to mention baby showers and all that. it's really hard to be myself in a world that seems to expect me to be something else entirely. that's why i love people like shirley manson. she is who she is, with no apologies.
