Listening!

This week;s Pondering With a Purpose talks about Listeners and Talkers. Me i'm more of a listener, It's not that I chose to it's just that I've never had much to say. Also I like to listen. I think you learn more that way. Even though you do learn I still wish I could have had something to say that way I would be able to have more conversations with people.I get irritated when I can't think of anything to say and we both just end of sitting quietly. Those are the times when I wish that I was a better talker. That way I could make more friends, people like when you talk to them and they seem irritated when you don't, it just gets awkward. Not being able to talk is the whole reason I started blogging in the first place. I wasn't able to say what I wanted so, I just started to blog about the things that were on my mind, like the weather, animals, and things.
Ya being a listener is great but, sometimes I wish I had been a better talker too.

    I found, Joseph, in talking to people, they always like to talk about themselves, LOL, so if you ask them questions about where they work or favorite subjects in school or favorite movies, how they like to spend their leisure time, etc that usually can keep conversations going. I'm more of a listerner too; I'm always fascinated to know about people. If we ever met face to face, I'm sure we wouldn't run out of things to talk about :)

    OH...Betty is so right... everyone (well not me) loves to talk about themself, their family, what makes them tick...

    ME? I'd rather keep all that stuff to myself --- even though I do seem to spew a lot of it out on my blog now don't I?

    Thanks for Pondering --- sorry it took me so long to get over here!

Toy Cars And a New Computer!

Image
Look at all of my toy cars! I was just organizing them before I put them into a different box, but I had to move them a little early to make some roof for my new computer! So back into the box they went! I've always wanted to arrange my toy cars like this since I was a kid, when I would see them arranged like this in toy car collector magazines and books, I thought it looked pretty cool. Anyway I had to get a new computer because my laptop's screen finally went out and it was becoming slow. It would sometimes take couple of minutes to load a webpage, so I knew I had to get a new computer. I got a Lenovo from Microcenter. It's refurbished, but it looks and works like new. Microcenter also gives you a keyboard and mouse, but it doesn't come with a monitor unless you want one, but it will cost you  a little extra. The whole computer with keyboard and mouse cost a hundred dollars with thirty dollar shipping, very cheap and works better than my laptop.  The rea...

White Lies

She smiled through her white lies as she wandered from table to table. Being a waitress was not one of her funnest jobs and she didn't feel like explaining the menu to every single person. "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?" "They are all good!" she would say with a wearied smile. She didn't think that the food was all that good though, except for maybe the hamburger, but even that wasn't all that great either and she wanted to tell the truth, but it was her only job and she didn't want to lose it. Wandering and wandering through the tables day in and day out. Until one day she collapsed and it happened, the pasta fell all over the man in the suits shirt. "I ordered the food to eat it, not wear it!" Said the man in the suit with a sarcastic tone to the waitress. The waitress looked at the man in horror. "I'll..I'll...clean it up" she ...
