passes and advances.

How do you know when someone is making a pass at you; or a subtle advance? Or was it just a simple touch, a slip of the hand. Where his fingers brush across yours in a way that makes you wonder why he would touch you at all.
Was there a need?
I mean yes, he was handing me something, but he did not necessarily need to touch my hand to hand it to me, but he did.
And it did not feel as a simple touch, but more of a deliberate touch, one where he had to reach out with his fingers and move across the back of my hand, and linger just long enough that it did not feel as an accidental touch.
I talk to a lot of guys at work and a lot of them get a kick out of teasing me, and having fun with me, but I know that it is all in fun and it does not bother me in the least.
But this one guy, I don’t know.
I don’t know, maybe I am stupid and read more into things than I should.
I am not that good looking and I don’t have a body worth looking at either, so why would any one make any type of a pass at me?

Workin for a Livin....

Working to pay the bills and working to have some extra cash. However you work over time everyday; all the time; no weekends to call your own, then is it for living? Or are you living to work.
.
This seems to be happening lately with me. For the past 3 days I have put in a total of around 13 hours of overtime and it is only Wednesday. It seems that I get home, have a glass of wine then go to bed early because I am exhausted and I am up again at 6am to start again. Nothing is getting done at the house, such as cleaning or home improvement projects.
I have to sit back and wonder, is it all worth it. Is it worth the extra effort to have money to spend or am I fooling myself. If I work all of this over time, then I have no time to do the things that I want.

Question to ponder……..
.;;
If a tornado swooped down and took all that you worked for in one single sweep; your house is gone. The car is gone. All your stuff that you had collected over the years is gone; what would you do? Everything you worked for is gone and the only thing you have is the clothes on your back. Would you start again in getting back the “things” that you lost with your insurance money (that is if you had insurance)?
Or would you take a different direction….
