Rule 24

24 : Do not leave Spain without a Catalan old man gorra!
So says Cori, but I’ll agree! As I didn’t leave w/o an old man hat! :-) A real one at that. It’s only missing the snap. Sad. But again as Cori said. If Spanish old men are wearing them without a snap then it’s probably ok to wear one without a snap. :)

Rule 23

23 : Never let a man have the upper hand!
My now ex-boyfriend when seemingly possessing the upper hand in the relationship decided it would be an ok choice to drive me to the police station, trick me into getting out of the car, and then leave me. Yes, drive off and leave me. Needless to say I will never be speaking to him again under any circumstances. This was probably chance #3+. Apparently I’m not listening to my own advice : Rule 6. However I did listen to Rule 15.

Rule 22

22 : Never rule out PC’s
They can be used as more than a doorstop. A PC was able to read my f’d WD Passport and reformat it so that I could then connect it to my mac and reformat it there too. And poof, it works again.

Rule 21

21 : Always backup!
Today my Western Digital turbo 320GB Hard Drive completely locked up on me. Convulsions. Angry angry convulsions. After 5 hours and alot of time on Google with a co-worker all of my data was safely recovered and now on my computer hard drive. The drive… still seizing. I’m taking it to the Mac store from where I got it about 2 months ago to see what they can do for me. If that precious 30GB had been gone…. I would be too! ugg!

Rule 20

20 : Indulge when necessary.

I got HBO on Tuesday! :)

Rule 19

19 : Know your choices.

When you choose something, know your choosing it. Don’t look back and don’t question it. There is nothing you can do about the past.

Rule 18

18 : Embrace Change
My life changes without fail every about 6 months. At any given time I can think back 6 months and know that I am in a completely different place in my life. I am moving forward. I going towards a place I really want and in turn I am very happy.

Rule 17

17 : Stay Free of Hate!

I watched “Small Town Gay Bar” on Netflix today.

I was re-amazed about how people feel about these things.

Rule 16

16 : It’s ok to not work all of the time

Today… I wanted to get alot done… Instead I am going to knit. It’s ok, I’ll work tomorrow.

Rule 15

15 : Know when to quit!

I’ve always had problem with this! I always think I can make it the way I want it to be. I am finally recognizing when it’s time to quit.

Right now it’s a time to quit. People don’t change, and he won’t either. He will run forever. I see that now.
