I'm No Helen of Troy

Up the Creek. No Paddle. Hole in Boat.

Bump Helen of Troy,
'though her face launched all those ships.
Mine, it launches shi*s!

You Can't Really Tell How Ugly It Is, But ...

... Up Close, Anti-Personal

Dear Carpet Sample:
Not to be rude, but I don't
think we're gonna jive.

Degree of Difficulty?

La-La-La-Label

Monday. Might as well
go with the ol' mundane flow
and label shiz. Whoop.

In Tune Out

In Tune Out

A good song plays on
and for three to four minutes
I escape from here.

Scene of a Crime

Serial Typist

They knew I did it
not e'en anonymously

I typed out my thoughts.

Vote 4 What You Know :)

Election Day

November the fourth.
History will mark this day
so full of great hopes.

Conversation 'ku

Looking at It This Way

Think about it. I'm
trapped in at least two boxes.
The cubby. The mind.

Disappearance @ Cubicle #1W21

No Trabajo, Yo

You won't find me there
alone in that ol' desk chair.

I've hit the road, Jack!

Head to the Sky

Heads Up, 7 Days Down

A week from now home
will welcome me back. Waiting,
I start the home stretch.

Fo' Shizzle

Twizzlin'

A new work week dawns.
I swivel in my desk chair
careless from the start.

10 Years Later ...

Early Dismissal Still Excites!

Jettin' out early
to enjoy the day like I'm
still too cool for school.

Falling for Scarves

On the Importance of a Warm Neck

Swaddled in soft cloth
my neck is relieved. Relaxed

just enough to work.

When ...

... Things Just Don't Work Out

So what do I know
about what comes next for me?
That God's hands hold it.

This Afternoon

An Egregious Eternity

The body stretches
in angst it twists and it turns
caught in the work web.

In Honor of National Talk Like a Pirate Day

Frrridee, Matey!

Ahoy, me weekend!
Throwin' the anchor away.

Who needs a harbor?

Ugh.

Choose-day

The second weekday
stretches for too long a time
so here I sit slumped.

Monday, Monday ...

Monday, Can You Be Trusted?

A new week begins
with a seemingly fresh mood
how long can this last?

Feels like a Wednesday, But ...

... Hump Day It Ain't

It's only day two

of a full work week. I think
I should just leave now.

Boredom Has a Place

Boredom Also Has a Face

A day spent trying:
not to wallow in the pits
and to stay awake.

It Don't Mean a Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing

Back in the Saddle

Silence is golden,
but I'm done with quiet now.
I have missed me, too.

I Just Can't Get Enough

Ode To Caffeine

Some days you need it.
Some days you need it a lot.
Today it's just vital.

What's a Girl To Do?

Holla!

It's not that often.
For once my disposition

matches the bright day.

What a Difference a Cut Makes

It's a New Day, It's a New 'Do

Change is possible
when unexpectedly spurred
by just a few snips.

Please Keep E-Mailing. It's Great.

No, Really. I AM Enjoying This.

You have a problem.
You want me to fix it. But
what's in it for me?

Zit-tastic

Oh, Face

(Sigh nonny nonny sigh)

What in tarnation?!

Am I sprouting a third eye?
It e'en hurts to squint.

Reality Looks Like This.

This Is My Now - Transpiring Thoughts This a.m.

a) What she want now?!

b) This just cannot be it.

c) Must find exit.

At it again, eh?

Ladies & Gents, it's Juror #6

I ask which is worse,

the juror's box or the cube?

Either duty calls...

A Friday Wasted...

Does Boredom Have a Color?

As boredom creeps in
I wonder what a lady
of leisure would do?

Honey chile lemme tell ya

C'mon Thursday and Gimme Friday

Ready for week's end?
Chile please. You ain't nevuh lied.
I'm done with all this!

Spring!

I Swear To You: I Get SO Tan, Just You Wait

a bit peaked now

but just you wait 'till summer

when i'm just golden.

Hung Up.

Just Keep Me Hangin' On ...

Please answer the phone

so I can clear some more stuff

off this desk of mine.

S'not okay.

When Sinuses Attack

I had to invest.

All the nose-blowing means the

neti pot's for me!

A new week, a change of mind?

Wondering (About the Future)

Not so suddenly

I see this blog's direction

heading for a change...

Quite.

My Mind & Heart Are Set, But So Are My Feet

when you've had enough
there's no going back really.
it's best just to leap.

Blah-di-blah

In Between

The nail filing's done.

Eleven o'clock to come.

What is there to do?

Just eh ...

Should've been a Heads-Up, 7-Up Day

No clouds chased away.

The sun's face did not appear.

Shoulda been nap day.

Huh?

Excedrin PM Lingers in the AM

Eight hours a day

I wonder how I'll make it.

How does anyone?

Black Irish

Pinch Me Not

My personal space
Shan't be invaded today.
Today I wear green.

File this under ...

Things That Can't Be Done With a Straight Face

I do not possess

the sort of face that remains

so expressionless.

I've been Slugworthed!

Broker Than Charlie Bucket

As you can see here

these tickets are not golden -

neither is this day.

This 9-5 Thing Stings ...

Just Read a Book That Really Makes Me Want a Sugar Daddy

Free, free. Set me free.
I do need someone to call --
but what is his name?

Funny ha-ha, eh?

A Goof.

Love leaving early!
Dentist: What time do you go?
At tooth-thirty yo :)

Shut It Up.

On the Importance of Being a Grown-Up

It's really hard to
take whining seriously.
Grow up already.

Must Haves

Get the Funk Outta Heah!

At all times fight funk.
Neither stank nor ashiness
should ever claim thee.

Hot in ... so hot in hrrrr!

The "Degree" to Which My "Secret" Fails

It is too early -

me, sweating in early March.

Am not "soft" or "dri."

Posture, young person, posture.

Facing the Front

It is most vital

for one's working space to be

ergonomical.

What This Face Says ...

Dear God:
Today's one of those

days where I'll be looking up,

hoping you'll help me.

Here Comes the Snow Again

Deskercisin'

If I bulge my eyes

like so, it makes my ears move

and that keeps them warm.

It's Relative, This "Working" Thing

Keepin' me busy

is a task I must take on

by myself today.

Sangria!

I Shouldn'a Drank That Yesterday Night

I was thirsty, right?
This explains why sangria
was chased by more wine.
