Letters To Myself

[cjsmith]

CJ,

Please sit a little straighter. Slouching hurts.

Your Shoulders

**********

CJ,

Aren't you glad you're getting better at saying what you mean instead of hoping to come up with a response the other person will like? Isn't life better this way?

Your Inner Therapist

**********

CJ,

What do you mean you can't remember what you spent on lunches this week? How are you going to keep track of your expenses if you let things slide so long that you can't remember?

Your Wallet

**********

CJ,

Quit fooling around with LJ and get some work done.

Your Conscience

**********

CJ,

Do something nice for rfrench when he gets home. He just soloed a student today, and he's getting you Cold Stone.

Your Heart

**********

CJ,

Um, you really should take a break soon.

Your Bladder

I need to write myself one about slouching too. I looked through a bunch of picnic photos and all the ones I'm in, I'm turned away from the camera and slouching! I think if I sit and stand up straight, I'll be mistaken for having self-worth.

Yeah, no kidding. Plus maybe avoiding back pain!

Slouching in my chair at work is what gets me the most. I have back pain since I started this job that I've never had before. The chair adjusts, but the desk height sucks and I can never get it right.

Maybe I'll declare Monday to be good posture day.

Yay for Good Posture Day! Mine is Thursday. I have a calendar entry sending me mail every Thursday saying "shoulders back". So far, it only works Thursday mornings. :-)

Ah, I remember those cold stones...

And you did something very nice for me (she took me to Fresh Choice for dinner).

This is a recording of a person asleep...

My shoulders agreed with your shoulders, and made me sit up straight.

Saying what you think -- I actually told someone off on the phone two days ago (GOD they irritated me!) instead of holding it in and telling Rondo about it yesterday. I was absolutely mortified at my behavior. But you know what? The rest of the phone call continued as if nothing had happened, business got done, and now that person knows she crossed the line with me. WEIRD! Surely the sky should fall on my head if I'm horribly rude to someone who got on my last nerve one too many times?

Yaay, Rob's on LJ! Gotta go make me a new LJ-friend.

Isn't that way cool?

Some days I get royally ticked off at the parents / society that trained us to think this way. Grrr!
