Currently the offices of Pen & M are hard at work. Their strategy is to shock, awe and confound now that Pen is away frolicking and living her life- M is most likely jealous, wondering when she’ll be able to go anywhere for a week... but has hope for a chicago trip this fall. she further hopes to continue to make the posts all about her- having found further insight to herself from the blog “I’d Rather Be Here Now” which had an informative article on narcissism. . .
current conditions:
:temperature- warm.
:chewing spearmint (2 sticks)
contemplating this quote: “expectation is a contract that the person has neither read, agreed to or signed” wondering that once standards and expectations are voiced for the world or a person- what happens then? is this other quote “it is what it is” further justifying apathy in the world, lack of social action, consequence and right living- or just making it okay for you to not care. concluding that both quotes are ridiculous when used as life principles.
:drinking iced water
:shoes off, hiked up skirt under desk.
:itching neck, clock gazing, epiphany striking, wondering why the work day isn’t over yet.

I always thought "It is what it is" conveyed "Okay, I've got to deal with what's in front of me, rather than trying to make it something it's not." This would make it more of an active statement, rather than an apathetic, let's-give-up-on-life one. But also, though, it's good because "It is what it is" reminds you that you can't control the world around you--which is the crux of approximately 99.9% of all our problems.
Also, those amusing Top Chefs said it all the time, and I heart the Top Chefs.
Two sticks of gum at once? This seems sinful, but oh so right...
Here you can have two more quotes:
'Only a mediocre person is always at his best.'
'It's a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it.'
It is a fact of life that work goes on forever and time flys when having fun. The trick is to earn your living doing what you love. I'm waiting....
I MISS YOU PEN : (
