Whatever happened to “wowing” me with your display?

Friday, March 20th, 2009

This past weekend I attended a trade show and I was so disgusted I left within 30 minutes.Why did I leave in such a hurry?Well,first this was the most disorganised trade show ever.The organisers did not do a good job in preparing everyone for the event and they obviously underestimated the amount of traffic — both cars and people because the venue was super small with very few parking spots.Most people had to park in the Walmart parking lot across the street.

Second,the companies that were making presentations were very unprofessional.Most company representatives looked so bored and uninterested in promoting their companies.The most frustrating thing to me were the plain trade show booths.Whatever happened to “wowing” me over with a company’s beautiful and very professional booth?Had these people never heard of table skirts?Had no one ever taught them that first impressions affect the bottom line in business and life in general?

It would have taken these companies less than an hour to get decent table skirts with their logos on them and make a good impression on prospective clients but I guess that was asking them for too much.I’m very disappointed in the companies at that trade show and I honestly don’t think I’ll go back next year (its an annual show),not unless the companies decide to step up their game big time!

Yes,this is one of those odd days where I woke up on the right side of the bed and I’m feeling well rested and ready to take on anything.And I mean absolutely anything.So I just wanted to send a very big,cheerful “Good Morning” your way!If you get the feeling that someone is thinking of you in that special way,its because I am!I’m sending happy thoughts your way today….have a fantastic day.

Planning out my midlife crisis

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

I’ve heard people say a midlife crisis is inevitable for everyone so because I believe in being over prepared,I decided to go ahead and plan my very own midlife crisis.

For starters,I will buy me a brand new mustang I cannot afford.It will be a silver mustang.
A few months ago I met someone who gave me a tour of Lawrenceville,GA in his mustang.At midnight.With the top down.It was freezing.I had just done my hair.I remember thinking,screw the hairstyle,this is so worth it!.It was insanely fun and liberating.I finally understood why the mustang is the car most men go for when they go through a midlife crisis.So when you see me driving around in a mustang,just know that I too am going through my midlife crisis.Don’t lecture me,just let me have fun,for a while…once the crisis passes,the car will definitely head back to the dealership.

Then ofcourse,I’ll get me a boytoy…hey,guys get ridiculously younger chicks when they are going through their midlife crisis so I’ll channel my inner Demi Moore and get my own sweet delicious and definitely much younger boytoy….yes,I know that sounded very,very cheesy.

Have you started planning out your midlife crisis?

Perfect timing in an amazing,imperfect world

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

Stepping into the spotlight when you fear getting egg on your face
Pulling the rent out of your hat at the last possible moment
Performing anonymous acts of kindness when inflation starts to hit your ego
Losing your job and finding your calling
Getting rear-ended instead of rear-ending
Being refunded by the IRS instead of defunded
Losing your perfect ending and finding a new beginning
Having a back-up plan in your back pocket
Percolating ideas before pouring them out in public
Unstacking your deck of credit card debt before the joker is you
Finding flowers at your door when your spirits need levitating
Losing your way and finding your self
Perfect timing in an amazing,imperfect world
