Oh Snap!

I forgot I had this blog.  I suppose it might be a good idea to get it rolling again.

A LOT has happened since I opened my little corner of cyberspace.  I am not going to get into details, but there have been a lot of things for me to snap at and give snaps too.

I am going to give snaps to Puff tissues because they have made my nose feel nice during sneezing season.  I am also giving out snaps to L'Oreal Feria hair color.  I have brightened up the gingery-goodness in my hair since my natural dark strawberry blonde was going way too dark from lack of sunlight and general luster of day.

I am snapping at feeling overwhelmed.  I have so much to do both for work and at home that it is making my head spin.  Hence the procrastination of updating the blog.

Oh snap!

Well, here we are.  Perhaps we were born to be kings and be the princes of the Universe as Queen once sang, but I doubt that, especially since I am a woman.  I would be a queen not a king.  It's semantics, but it's also true.

Ginger Snap #1: People who lack compassion, empathy, or understanding of how others are effected by their actions and thoughts drive me crazy.  Yes, we are all guilty of it at certain points, but there are some that  refuse to see that they may be in the wrong even after it has been pointed out to them.

Case in point: At a conference I encountered a group of people that were upset about their copies not being in the right order and the holes punched were off.  Their ire seemed such that they were ready to take up pitchforks and lynch the offender.  I explained to them that the person that made the copies did her best and was only kid volunteering to help out.  After I said this many of the group members seemed to realize that they were being unfair.  There was, however, one woman that continually harped on the inconvenience of the situation and how the girl that did the copies had ruined everything.

I'm sorry, how did she ruin everything?  Did she press the red button and detonate the nukes?  Did she spill blood on a carpeted area?  No.  Everything was not ruined.  You were inconvenienced.  You may have been aggravated.  In no way was everything ruined.

Relax people!  Walk a mile in their shoes.  You might notice the blisters are pretty painful.
