My Favorite Posts of 2009 (The Fashionably Late Edition)

I was supposed to do this last week, but I wasn’t 100% sure how to make it interesting. I still don’t know how, but I’m just gonna let go and let it flow. So sorry in advance that it’s as interesting as talking about metal buildings. But I’ll keep my sarcastic twist…hopefully. Well, here goes nothing. I hope you enjoy it at least a little bit.

  1. The Job Fiasco: If something sounds too good to be true…check the Better Business Bureau.
    Just a year ago, I snagged a job as a receptionist/dispatcher in a locksmith business. I should have gotten out on the first day, but I lasted two weeks. Then the intuition kicked in, and the intuition was right. I checked out the business on the internet after noticing a few shady things, and it was on several sites…and not in a good way either. Now I had a dilemma–stay, or go before the cops caught on. I left, and never looked back.
    Note: These were protected posts; for the purpose of this post, and for the simple fact that I ain’t scared of being canned by these people since I’m not there anymore, they are here to read. Have fun.
  2. There’s more. Because I don’t know how to shut up at times.
    This turned out to be a lot longer than I expected. But well…I have lots of lost time to make up. Thanks for putting up with my crazy ass for so long.

I hate the cold.

Nov
16

I dream of a Virgin Islands vacation…or even one that isn’t in this freezing climate, omg.

Okay, so it’s not that bad just yet, but when I went out on Friday, I swear that my fingers were going to shrivel up and fall off. I’m usually not one to complain about the cold before it gets unbearable (because I complain about the heat 10 times more), but Mother Nature really screwed up on Friday. Thank you, Ida remains. Thank you.

Now I’m going to sleep, my eyes are yelling at me.

Open-Ended Question: In Case of Emergency

Aug
07
Life throws a lot of curve balls at you. Sometimes they’re good, and other times…well…they can render you traumatized. Mother Nature loves to do that. Tornadoes, fires, floods…yeah, the heifer loves to scare us to death. However, we can counter that with a great emergency evacuation plan in case she decides that she wanted to twirl some wind around in a funnel, or cry her eyes out. In case of natural disasters, do you have an emergency evacuation plan? If so, what is it?

Here comes the rain again.

Dear Mother Nature,

Hai, do you know where I can find great Mesothelioma lawyers?

No, for serious though, what’s with all this rain? I’d like to go outside and take more pictures. At least the rain is making it possible for the flowers to bloom and flourish and all that. But, it also makes me all groggy and…ick.

Please be fixing that. Thank you.

I…hate you,

Nat Marie

Hoi Thar.

Crestfallen is the 3-year-old site of a sarcastic 20-something natural-born New Yorker who goes by the name Nat Marie most days, but answers to many other things, including Shadow, Chickenhead, and "Hey Bitch!". She has a love for writing, performing arts, and cats (albeit allergic to them). You will find love, life, and a lot of writing and sarcasm sprinkled in. Enjoy.
