predicaments

That's exactly what I find myself in with my damn car.  I need to sell it and I badly want a 2007-2009 BMW 335i.  My predicament, getting my girlfriend fully on-board with my decision.  She's wavered a bit, from being fully against the idea, to being slightly on-board with my idea, with some of her own demands.  A recent visit to BMW of Newport helped sway her over to my side, thanks to Mark, a friendly salesman. 

I realize my blog isn't exciting, but I need for it to first assume it's own identify.  I'm trying to plant the seed and have the water (e.g. my random thoughts) help these seeds to blossom into something bigger and better.  Do I expect anything worthwhile to come of this....Yes.  Do I honestly expect this to lead to any sort of financial gain for myself...yeah, of course.  Are my expectations realistic?  In the words of Michael G. Scott, "Yes. Money has been a little tight lately. But, at the end of my life, when I'm sitting on my yacht, am I gonna be thinking about how much money I have? No. I'm going to be thinking about how many friends I have, and my children, and my comedy albums. I mean, I have a yacht, so I obviously did pretty well money wise."

Oh, and I thought of some more pet peeves of mine, regarding people in the office:

• the guy who goes out of his way to avoid eye contact, just so he doesn't have to say hi to you
• the person in the elevator closest to the buttons, who doesn't ask you what floor you'd like
• people who talk too loud and/or high pitched...luckily, I sit near someone who suffers from both.  She deserves her own entry, which I'll update first thing tomorrow morning
