People Without Filters - Day 8

Very stoked today's weigh in for WW - lost almost 3 lbs this week of course, I did have dental work and was unable to eat - I am going to try my very best to keep on losing. I have made it to my 5% goal :) The outfit today is cute but a little plain. I envy some my fellow bloggers that each day their outfit is creative and cool. Of course, I don't really try to achieve this daily as I wear my clothes in the order they are hanging in the closet. The outfit with with the shawl I wore yesterday, and I really like that outfit. The shawl has both my favorite color - yellow and orange and it even has a tag to let me know I am wearing it properly.

What are you thoughts on people who do not seem to have filters. You know the kind of people who seem so self-absorbed or arrogant or perhaps it's ignorance that say things to people regardless of the person's feelings. I have a couple of examples that I have witnessed to give you an insight into what I'm talking about it. Below are two people that I have observed that do not seem to possess these filters and say things to people that I find totally rude.

For example:
 me: "How's it going to today" No-Filter: "Terribly, can't get anything to work properly" ME: smile and say "What do you need them to work for?" No-Filter: "I'm not in the mood for your crap today"
Now for an example of protege:
Co-worker: "I need to find out what's going on with this..." Protege: "Well, I think you know how to read, you do know how to read right" This would be said in mixed company

Do you know people like that? How do you handle them? Why do you think they act like this?


Day 08 - A picture that makes you laugh.
 I love the Sock Monkey and HAD to have this hat and I showed it to my friend Jamie and he HAD to have it. Our friend Erin found the elusive hats for us. I must say though as badly as I wanted it - I was too self conscious when I wore it in public and only wore it once. I still love it and Heathen would love to have it as well :)

No whining today

So I got my new laptop at work and it is absolutely the coolest thing, I swipe my finger print to get into it!! Remember I am a HUGE novelty person :) So my nice little virus on my work laptop sent a few of my colleagues an email on my behalf inviting them to a Russian chat. <embarrassing> My IT guy made the transition to this beast of a machine painless and all my documents were able to saved from the deadly one. Now the PC I got from my grandmother was running beautifully until I put McAfee on it. I don't get it. I'm sitting here now watching the hummingbirds on my feeder that I attached to my picture window. I LOVE watching the hummingbirds and the eggs have hatched in my hanging plant on the porch as I found it when I took it down to water it last night. Had these fuzzy, awkward, little creatures - way COOL. My mouth is just about back to norm except for the brown stains from the rinse I had to do but they assured me they would buff them out when I go back later this month. 4 more weeks and I will be officially done with the BA program. I think I will look into going to APSU for my Masters - not sure I have what it takes but.... won't know until I try.


Day 07 - A picture of your most treasured item.
This would have to be the diamond earrings Mr Man gave me. I have never had any "nice" jewelry and I got the second hole just for these beauties. I actually had asked for the size smaller but glad he got me these. I NEVER take them out - except to clean them occasionally but I HATE parting with them. They have screw backs and I am always scared I am going to drop and loose them while I do the screwing/unscrewing. I know I'm a strange kitty :) MEOW What is your most treasure item?
