out of office auto reply ..

this is my new motto .. laundry calling .. sorry .. out of office auto reply .. please contact someone else to do that .. out of milk .. oh so sorry .. out of office auto reply .. please contact my admin assistant .. homework to do .. class projects to work on .. toys to pick up and put away .. dishwasher to unload .. beds to make .. teeth to brush .. faces to wash .. noses to blow .. bing bing bing .. out of office auto reply .. the person you are trying to contact is not available at the current moment .. please check back with her when she has had at least 2 nights of totally undisrupted sleep of at least 8 hours .. don't you wish that you could use this on life .. so sorry .. i am going to slip away and sleep for 1 whole week .. i will awaken only to refuel and hydrate and then back to sleep i will go .. if only .. that would work .. of course this craziness in my life that causes me to want to adopt this motto is competely and totally 100% self induced .. if only i didn't feel compelled to give everything 150% of my time and energy then maybe i wouldn't feel the need to "bing" .. out of office auto reply .. but what is the point .. if you don't give 150% .. you are selling someone short .. for instance .. my dear friend emily .. i have been trying to make a card and form the words to express my deepest gratitude and admiration for her for a gift that she made for me 13 months ago .. i mean really .. 13 months .. that is way over a year and i am so sure that it is against all the rules in emily post .. but for some reason .. i just can't get there .. no card is worthy .. i can't seem to find the right words .. i even bought a book .. still no luck .. i can't just do something half way .. what if you add up all the halfways .. does that count .. NO .. it does not .. so maybe my new motto should be simplify .. store bought valentines would work .. halmark makes great cards .. shirts can be wrinkled .. NO NO NO .. see what i mean .. so now that the violins are playing very loudly ... i think that i should end this big ole pity party and focus on the good and don't worry about the rest .. right .. like that is going to work .. oh well .. bing bing bing .... !!!!
