WRONG-0 Daddio

Weekend got jacked up, too much to do and not enough hours...but it's getting better. Less distractions, more interactions...it's a good place to be even though the balance will take some time to level out.

Max and I are often at odds these past few days, I wonder if a small break might be good for us. He lambasted me in therapy the other night, I know this might not be appropriate...but he pissed me off SO bad during that session, I mean I still find myself feeling anger toward him. Not because of WHAT he said, but because of HOW and WHY. I felt he was being smug, bordering on disrespectful and blatantly giving Georgia a show. He was behaving in such a false manner, even though his message was clear...I don't know, it almost seemed like he just looking for a fight. I was disappointed in him and felt like he was manipulating the situation, that's not cool at all. Real frankly, since our communication has been poor. I definitely plan to bring it up at the next session.

I am in a particularly rebellious mood myself this morning, probably vibing off of MJ's little 'tude from the weekend or maybe it's my new Pink CD - this is a great one for those moments in life when a girl feels like hearing a little female angst in full throttle. I love that she's not afraid any more, to say what's on her mind. To drop the F bomb and say what she thinks about the men in her life, her family, her ex-lovers and the ones to come....she just doesn't take any shit, it's hard NOT respect that. It's been enjoyable watching her evolve as an artist from the early days, Pink's a good girl in my book, I'd buy her a beer anytime.

I should get to work, my desktop has been al out of sorts lately, I am pretty sure it's a memory issue conflicting with my .Net install...which I told them about 3 or 4 weeks ago at least...achem, anyway...but I think it's fixed now. That's what IT tells me anyway. The worst part is that most times, I can easily troubleshoot and fix whatever is wrong with my workstation....but I am not "allowed" as I am simply a lowly peon developer and not an IT Administrator (at this job anyway)...plus I don't think they'd appreciate being shown up by a "chick"....alas my lovelies, it is still true that even in an industry in which I've been working for almost a decade now, my fellow techie momma's and myself face the occasional a-hole with a stereo-type in his mind about women and technology. Luckily, there is only one said a-hole here, and he's on vacation this week. In a perfect world, he would be on vacation permanently.

Happy Monday, cheers to you all - have a lovely week:)

The new Pink CD is fabu. I find that I have often felt the same way she has as we've grown up. For example her earlier CD's were all about being independent and partying. This CD still embellishes partying, but she's also added a more mature, more outward thought process that I tend to connect with.

Have you heard the last track, that she does with her dad? Dane really likes that one, as do I.

Crys, I have heard it and it's very sweet. And painful too. I posted it on Ballad Of Babyfish so everyone could read the lyrics.

She talks about her father a lot in her music, her love for him, her need for him...she's pretty raw sometimes with it. Good for her;)

I also like "I've Got Money Now"...C & I were talking the other day, about our frustrations with money...but would we really want it? How would it change us and would we trade our life of "comfortable" struggle for money. I wouldn't, I worry about how it might change me. What I would take for granted, she talks exactly about that in that song.

Oh man and "Conversations With My 13 Year Old Self"....well, that just speaks for itself don't it now?

I think I will have to invest in a new CD. I have heard the song Stupid Girls and really like that one.

I know she did a great job with her last album with songs like Family Portrait and Don't Let Me Get Me. So I have no doubt this album will be just as good.
