I Need Your Help

Help me help others in taking the first steps to Breast Cancer Research by walking October 3rd, 2009 at Finlay Park 9am or donating by clicking on the link below. This charity is something that truly touches my heart. I'm amazed that I have already reached my goal of $1000 in only 4 days, but I get tears in my eyes more so the past few years I have attended after my beautiful Mother was diagnosed. The 3 miles throughout downtown is covered with people who are walking to support loved ones who have passed, survived or on a side of a friend for support. It gives me chill bumps just thinking back and remembering how each and every year more and more people come out to support this awful cancer! Every year men (yes, men) and women that are diagnosed can ultimately come to a hault with all of our help in donating towards research funds. Any little bit helps and with times being tough, just keep everyone in your thoughts and prayers! SAVE THE TA-TA's!

'Round Da Tick Tock

Living, working and playing happens all in one spot for me. At times it's a great thing and at times, well, it is very stinky. Then again I feel that I definitely do my job...in and out the office. Working has introduced me to many different people and most who I consider to become or already have become somewhat friends of mine! What a wonderful community I workliveplay in!

The Dictionary Lies

Honestly, I severely suffer from mixing the true definitions of words and making up my own vocabulary. Doctors say its similar to the other disease I carry of confusing the infinite amount of moolah I wish I had to the true amount typed in bold print on my bank statement. Then again, I refer to that envelope as 'junk mail.' So, as I was saying before that brain fart interrupted me, meanings of words...Merriam Webster. Who is shim? The word 'con' means fake, right? Take the word 'constipation,' fake shit? Please enlighten me. 1. On why someone would want to feel like they have to do the deed, but can't? Better yet, 2. Why would someone fake it? I mean I go to the bathroom with my phone to catch up on socializing at the same time I catch up on socializing. That's not faking...
On the other hand, what would happen if Mis/r. Webster misspelled a word? How do we know? Since I'm a leader and not a follower, I'd like to announce The Awesome Dawson Dictionary will be in stores 2099 right beside the followers edition, aka, every other dictionary. If you'd like to be first up for grabs you can leave a comment with your credit card number and a name and address where I can send a thank you card for helping me achieve my bank account bottomless amount.

Somethings Never Get Old...

...but they sure do start with new people. It takes 30 seconds to make a first impression on a potential friend, prospect, or any one person in general. In our place of business we strive to make everyone feel comfortable and wanted the second they step foot in our door. Our goal is to UNDERSTAND their wants and needs. That should be the norm in any and every place of business. I also believe that is the building block to relationships whether it be a friendship or the lovey-dovey kind. There are bound to be people that may not let you in, those that are fast to jump in or those that really aren't worth the effort. I'm not a fan of belittling someone because you feel you are better. Who the &*%@ are you to think you are better? I'm sorry, but only God can judge. Also, negativity, didn't your Mommy ever tell you to if you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all? There is nothing I hate more than seeing someone cry or people trying to changing who they are (personality wise) to please another. Be you! It's amazing how many friends come to me upset cause they think they did something wrong because so and so won't talk to them or dumped them or didn't pick up the phone all 543 times they called in an hour. If they don't like you then tough kitties! Get over it! There are more important things going on in this world to worry about something so petty. Don't waste the energy. Be concerned about where our health care system is headed, about pollution in the air and if illegal dumping in rivers and oceans is going to hurt the fishes or if Meghan is really going to find her millionaire on that junk reality TV show! If you let the evilness and cruelty into your life, welp, it's your own damn fault! JUST SAY NO!
