Where in the world do all of you bloggers find the time or the patience to read books…like whole books?? I struggle to find time to read all of my emails. And I am writing this blog post in 3 minute increments throughout the day. When I watch tv I am also doing laundry or the dishes. While I am on the phone I am also swiftering and feeding the cat. At work I am on the phone, answering emails and talking to the person in my office at the same time. When I am driving I am planning my day for tomorrow or talking on the phone. At the gym I am working out and planning my next vacation and tweeting. When I am eating I am also working. The only time I am not multitasking is when I am sleeping. Who has time to just sit still and read?? I am way too busy. And I don’t even have any kids. Don’t get me wrong. I like my busy life. It just baffles me that people have time to read a whole book in like 2 days. Maybe if I was on a flight to Africa I could do it. But then again I have never been much of a reader. I get bored and fall asleep if I am not moving around and doing at least 2 things at once. If I lay down to watch tv and only watch tv I will be asleep in 15 minutes.
I really get annoyed with all of these blog posts about how you should tip your server well because they only make $2.13 an hour and they depend on that money to pay their bills. I depend on my salary to pay my bills too. Therefore I show up at work every day and do my job to best of my ability so that I earn my salary. That server knows they depend on the tip to pay their bills. And they know how to earn it. I tip on service and not the food quality. I know the server does not cook the meal. You can serve me the worst food ever but if you take care of me I will take care of you. I have had bad food experiences a few times and had the food comped. But I still tip the server because he/she did their job and provided good service. I am sorry but if you provide bad customer service not only do you not deserve a tip you don’t deserve that job. Your bills don’t make a difference. It is kind of like an employee who has called out from work 30 different times over the past 3 months and been late to work 25 times. In the process of being fired they beg to keep their job because they have bills to pay and kids to feed. Well you should have thought of that when you were skipping work and sleeping in. But somehow this is the employers fault and not the employee’s. No people. That is not how it works. It’s your life…own it.
And this one has nothing to do with blogs…What in the world is going on with airline prices?? Last week there were all these great deals and as of Sunday flight prices has doubled. Seriously…going anywhere on any date…doubled. There needs to be another sale. And I am booking like 5 flights as soon as there is. I need to go to Nashville, Atlanta, DC, and Germany all before September. I need to flight sale magic…or frequent flyer miles. Oddly enough there is still great deals on flights from Orlando to Reykjavik. So maybe I will just go to Iceland. I don’t know anyone that has ever gone there. I like to go places that none of my friends have been.
The end.

My dad used to travel to Iceland and he said it was beautiful! Go for it.
I think I read 36 books last year. :) I watch almost no TV!
We must be related or something, because I can't just watch tv or anything else without doing two other things at the same time... I think our jobs have made us that way!
