http://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_prompt/saturday-night/ work throughout the weekends so Saturdays for me a weeknight as opposed to really feeling like the weekend. Unfortunately my friends with real careers and non-retail generally have the weekends off.

The call of the water
Daily Prompt: http://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_prompt/have-you-never-been-mellow/ My escape has always been water.

Holy Grail
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/03/05/prompt-sleep/ I’ve been fortunate to not be in a situation where I’ve ever over heard ill will directed toward me.

I could teach you how to speak my language, Rosetta Stone
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/02/10/daily-post-take-that-rosetta/ If you don’t get the lyric reference, I won’t judge you. If you do; yay you! I’ve had quite a few brushes with language; because of my interest in culture. I go on these culture interest binges and of course, a big part of understanding cultural nuance is language. Growing up in a melting…
Your turn to wash the dishes
While I love cooking, I hate washing dishes. Yes, hate. The “deal” in my household is whoever cooks, is absolved from washing dishes. This still doesn’t work because I hate washing dishes, even on the days when I didn’t cook. I can’t identify what it is about the task itself that I hate; but I…

All we…
Daily Prompt: Kindness
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/01/23/daily-prompt-kindness-2/ It’s entirely to easy to be braggadocios when an opportunity to play up a “good” trait is presented so instead, I’ll write to you a bit about how I learned to be kind.
