This blog is, by nature just my thoughts and opinions. If you quote me, be warned, it is just my opinion and any facts should be checked as they may not be the way the rest of the world sees itself. I have spend countless hours quickly switching among knitting, Facebook, twitter, news, and random Googling of whatever catches my interest. I often catch myself holding my needles and yarn in the middle of a stitch to check something online. I often wonder if anything I am doing is important to anyone but me, but then it really doesn't matter as the important thing in life is to live it. I dislike anyone who tells others how to live, not that I dislike the person for themselves but I dislike their opinion that they have the right to tell anyone else what to do. How would those people like it if someone told them what they do is wrong or someway horrible. Would they change their beliefs just to satisfy the opinions of others? Or would they be offended at the implication that what they feel is right, isn't. 


I keep thinking that I should modify my appearance to make myself look more like is expected of me. I know it isn't the most important thing in the world, but appearance does count for more than it should. I keep wondering if I shouldn't wear makeup more, get my nails done, make sure to dress to cover my tattoos, make sure I keep my hair done and in normal colors, ensure my piercings all match and are not too distracting. I know I should dress for the job I want to have, that being a professional office job, though I need to find a way to express myself though those limitations. It isn't that difficult to wear the colors I like and to wear the jewelry I like because nothing is that extreme. I just need to find a workplace that values my skills over my idiosyncrasies.
