i'll admit, i'm posting this in large part due to my immense boredom and frustration at this juncture of the family vacation. these things always end up like a weird intervention...the fact that i choose to rot indoors watching lifetime movies and eating ice cream sandwiches is apparently a large concern for my beach bum kin. and to them i say i choose weight gain and weakened eyesight over skin cancer and peeling and finding grains of sand under my fingernails for weeks after i've returned to the mainland.
among other personal imperfections that have been brought to my attention in an ambush style (really...you can't spring the 'what are you doing with your life' question on me in the middle of cash cab...that's just inhumane.), apparently my decision to travel holds no weight in the burns household. because if you can't put it on a resume, it has no value whatsoever. oh, and i'd really like it if we could establish some sort of standard protocol for the appropriate manner to respond to these attacks on my life decisions. because apparently not saying anything at all is me being childish and ignoring the problem, while opening my mouth to respond in any way other than "you're so right! why didn't i see it before! i totally suck! let's run not walk to the next ann taylor, suit me up in business casual attire, and ship me off to the first cubicle that's free!" results in "why are you being so defensive?" ugh. is there some delicate balance i'm unaware of for dealing with these situations? maybe i should've joined debate club in high school...could've killed two birds with one stone what with the oratory skills i'd have gained and the resume building, which is clearly my biggest weakness here.
the cherry on top of all of this is that my iPhone decided to iDie yesterday afternoon...like, not the e.t. kind of dead where its heart does a weird red glowing resurrection thing, but more like the richard gere in unfaithful dead where he kills that guy in the head with a snow globe and then wraps him up in a persian rug and realizes he just made a terrible mistake. so that's awesome.***
anyways, thanks for letting me complain to you (assuming you're reading this, which i will because otherwise i'll feel bad about myself...) because it's a nice break from tearing out my hair. i really think i am adopted. anyways, this week's mix is pretty eclectic with (hopefully) something for everyone provided they like electro. if they don't, i'm not really sure why they're reading this in the first place...
