god bless you XBOX chat and overly excited boyfriend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i work at an engagement ring store as an office associate, if you were wondering. and for the most part i do not mind my job. it's full of tetious tasks i can dround myself in all day; for example: packing boxes to be shipping, stock balancing, answering e-mails in crazy fonts, helping one coworker in a never ending scrabble battle against another... for the most part it is pretty much acceptable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but sometimes,the dreaded times, i have to work in the customer service window. &lt;br /&gt;ugh.&lt;br /&gt;not to bash my sex, but i usually find most women annoying.&lt;br /&gt;and being that i work in an industry that centers itself around "the most important event in a woman's life" i can safely assure you that i have had my absolute FILL. of. fucking. ladies. &lt;br /&gt;and trust me. i use the word "ladies" looser than a lohan's vagina.&lt;br /&gt;i cannot tell you how many time a day i hear, "What do you mean my ring can't be sized today?! I HAVE AN ENGAGEMENT PARTY TO GO TO ASKJFDH OAISFH OAISHF JFJFJ!I NEED THIS DONE RIGHT. NOW. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY I CANNOT HAVE EVERYTHING I WANT! I'M GETTING MARRIED! CAN YOU NOT SEE?!" *insert fake tears*&lt;br /&gt;then it is my job to say "I'm SOOOO sorry, i completely understand why you're upset! this is literally the biggest-faking-deal EVER! please, allow me to make myself look like an incompetent puss-cake by getting my manager to come and give you whatever you want just because you decided to complain and somewhat cry! can i offer you a water or a coffee as i disembowel myself in front of you?"&lt;br /&gt;the strangest thing is, i have seen this come from what i perceived as a totally rational human being before she was told she could not have her way, immediately. &lt;br /&gt;(we cave, we're pussies) &lt;br /&gt;i will never understand the significance of it all. even if someone were to propose; i'm convinced it would all be lost on me.&lt;br /&gt;eh. vent. vent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;reguarding my premier post; i have come up with an effective way to perk up...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6Zp6RUx86zQ/Szg-aOxqnYI/AAAAAAAAABA/sAqwKF-o7do/s1600-h/IMG00277.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6Zp6RUx86zQ/Szg-aOxqnYI/AAAAAAAAABA/sAqwKF-o7do/s320/IMG00277.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5420150771904322946" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;at least i never have to remember puking in a korean karaoke house. at least...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8065379305414714908-3062831948696247965?l=lokeedesigns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lokeedesigns.blogspot.com/feeds/3062831948696247965/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lokeedesigns.blogspot.com/2009/12/i-can-see-your-halo.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8065379305414714908/posts/default/3062831948696247965'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8065379305414714908/posts/default/3062831948696247965'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lokeedesigns.blogspot.com/2009/12/i-can-see-your-halo.html' title='I Can See Your Halo.'/><author><name>shanna.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12834030187973605564</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6Zp6RUx86zQ/SyrHBgYml_I/AAAAAAAAAAM/03vdfWubvWU/s1600-R/6654226'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6Zp6RUx86zQ/Szg-aOxqnYI/AAAAAAAAABA/sAqwKF-o7do/s72-c/IMG00277.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8065379305414714908.post-4628509624315444146</id><published>2009-12-27T09:30:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-27T09:40:35.851-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Findings.</title><content type='html'>i can now charge and use my camera. &lt;br /&gt;please, get ready for picture city.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.... and how come i cannot find a cool devices shirt!
