Well finally I am upright and at the computer. I write to you from my safe haven and sick bed, here in Faceland. I sit and reflect on a conversation I had with a fellow baby face. He spoke so highly of the leaders, the leaders of Facenation. I have been in this distant land for so long that my thoughts have almost been changed, my mind almost not my own. And I sit here and remeber my talk with several head faces about my important role I play in the running of Faceland and Facenation. But then one question comes to mind:
If I am so important, how come no leader has checked in on me?
( Papa Face is excused from this because, he was just trying to make it work schedule wise.)Now please do not misunderstand my bretheren the fellow baby faces have showered me with prayers and kind words.
Now lets add some life lessons and basic knowledge I am sure no leader woud expect a baby face to have. How is the kindom more important than the servants? The servants make the kingdom. So maybe this is a dftd as well as a note from Facenation. This current adventure has removed any doubt from my mind... I am a lowly, meager,minor, and all of that sort baby face and proud of it. So no matter what a leader of Facenation says to me, move over Popeye" I am, what I am."
I got a text today from a beasr face I have serviced before sending her warm thoughts and prayers. This is a creature that fights with me regularly. She wished me well so we could fight another day. Sideline minor dftd, never do test calls or text from your personal device. But if one of the biggest beast faces ever can wish me well........ come on really????????
Still here in Faceland, but safe and feeling better this day..

My journey to realize my little world is not that serious. There is dumb everywhere. In search of it, and some laughter. Stand by.

Its not even and OMG
Well first let me apologize to myself and anyone else that might read this (hi Derreck). I have to stop trying to post anything late at night. Between trying to fall asleep on the keyboard, rushing to finish before I fall out, and still not finding the spell chek I am riding my own perpetual dumb for the day welcome wagon. But three days before surgery lets excuse me and my jacked up writing.... For now.
Here goes the DFTD
and when I wished to see one of my favorite customers Derreck.
Let us first thank the Lord that I did not have to wait on this whiny, pastey, skinny bastard. This shrew wanted to make numerous changes to and account. No big deal right? She wanted to pay a bill as well. Now we the members of Facenation will gladly assist anyone in the paying of bills, fees or and other tarriffs to THE NATION. Now you say where is the DFTD, and why did I want ... NO HOPE to see Derreck? This Queen Bitch Face customer said "FUCK YOU BITCH." Yes Really!!!! I was told no she just said bitch... Not what I heard though..
There are a few times that I can truly say that I saw solidarity in Facenation, but at that moment we unitied. It looked like people rose out of the ground to be a part of this moment, and for support. We were fighting about who was going to jump up and beat that shrew's ass. Still looking for the dumb in all this??? Why mess with people that have all of your personal information? And people that could at the very least direct you to possible solutions. And really why are you messing with people? You do not know how crazy they are. And you don't know what they are dealing with.
and Derreck we needed and audience... or at least a co-signer

The B Inside
I am truly hard pressed to find a dftd.... NOT. OMG. I AM TRYING TO JUST FOCUS ON ONE THING. BUT I COULD HAVE WRITTEN 12 POSTS BY 10AM.
BACKROUND
When I first arrived in the alien land of FACES. I was afraid, intimidated and unaccustom to such close interaction with faces. Previously I only came across faces many years ago and only on the telephone. And when I could not understand the rantings, or behavior of this strang species I could escape them by severing the communication. And poof they were gone.
But here in this mysterious land there is no escape. Each face is replace immediately with another, until they are merely blurs and flashbacks. The experience of travelling in this territory was so dramatic for me that I vowed if another stranger happened to dock on thes of Faceland that I would help the stranger. Train them on the rules and ways of this land. And help them remain as sane as possible. Not possible.
DFTD a mini story
"THANKS FOR BEING HELPFUL BECAUSE NOT EVERYBODY IS FACE," was working with a visiting face today. The face he had was loud and ranting about things none of us had any control of. Now anyone that has been in Faceland for more than 30 days knows sometimes it is best to say nothing. This is because speaking only agravates the beast and makes the face talk, growl and stay longer than they should. "THANKS FOR BEING HELPFUL BECAUSE NOT EVERYBODY IS FACE," told the face beast.......... wait for it wait for it, "You are Wrong." Now in itself this is not a crime, but in the next moment he did not know who the face beast was and their number.... Hello you have been dealing with face beast for 45 mintues and you have to ask him and a fellow coworker facewho are you, what equipment do you have, and whats your number? It is Facelands own version of "Fifty First Dates." But in this version it make sou say, "Where's the love, man?"
FYI the customer made "THANKS FOR BEING HELPFUL BECAUSE NOT EVERYBODY IS FACE," cry. I mean wounded animal cry. Now before I feel a bit guilty about taking a moment to say wow, he didnt like or appreciate my assistance before. Plus he won't speak.........he is "THANKS FOR BEING HELPFUL BECAUSE NOT EVERYBODY IS FACE," and "Rude Face." He asked for help and recieved it. He seconded guess the help he originally recieved. Others offered to help and he declined it. He wanted that ass beating and got it.
FACE PRAYER
GIVE ME THE STRENGTH AND DRIVE TO HELP ALL FACES "KIND" AND "BEASTS" ALIKE.
GIVE ME THE PATIENCE TO LISTEN TO THEIR RANTS AND BABBLING.
GIVE ME THE CLARITY AND SWIFTNESS OF TONGUE TO SPEAK TO THE LEADERS OF FACELAND, AND FACE NATION.
GIVE ME THE GRACE TO BE SILENT, WHEN ITS BEST.
AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.... AND NOT TO HURDLE OVER THE DESK.

It Starts Early
Preview: Baby Boy deal with it... If you ever read any of this, I do not rant gramatically correct.
Well the first d.f.t.d. I tried to use the mobile blog because the insanity started early. That stupid mess didn't work. We won't even go into the attempts of tring to make it work. This is merely backround fluff.
Well the member of the face nation called and wanted to know where I was. Now since this was before 10am and I wasn't due in until 11am I was confused. Today I had to leave early to take more preop tests. Well dah..... All the faces vanished except for one. And................ as faces do e wanted to know what was going on. The faces can take time out to talk about each other but no communication. I started to explain how "Two Face" gave me permission, but realized the thumping I heard was a blood vessel in my kneck ready to expload....Now know this everyone already knows that I am having surgery, so wtf????
We are off for another multi d.f.t.d. day.
Lets describe me: I am a 5'4", 369 pound, African American, bright color top wearing, UGG and Berkinstock wearing, Starbuck 16 pump vanilla venti black tea drinking, totally Pandora tricked out, stone carrying, pink loving, reiki doing woman. The only thing I have in common with my coworkers is that there are 2 other African American women( yes I am only talking about outwardly visible stuff.). so my question is this how can you not see me? Bald Face talked to me about not seeing me. REALLY!!! How is that possible? And he doesn'nt know my name. What?? A customer asked for me and he didn't know what they were talking about, and he was less than two feet from me. I am all for being politically correct, but as fat and black as I am everyone knows me. He just sees faces. Well my face is connected to a fat neck and a pair of 46d's.
Went to the doctors today for my tests. I was picked, pooked ad proded . Now a little backround, I live at the doctors lately. I have had so many tests I have to sing them to remember them all. Now wouldn't you think through all of that somebody would have noticed I have a heart murmur. My doctor asked me has anyone ever told you , you have a heart murmur? Told her no, you didnt' tell me that when I saw you 2 mintues ago. Really did I develop one over night? Or within the hour?
And going for the Trifecta of Dumb
Ten year old boy is sitting at his fathers job doing his homework. He needs some help with his math. He asks for some help and one after another none of the employees could do the problem. They tried breaking out a calculator, but nothing looked right. The little boy guessed and all of the emplyees told him he was wrong. He started to cry he was so frustrated.
The Problem: 495 divided by 6
The Problem the employees were using 6 divided by 495
How many coworkers of 3D does it take to be smarter than a fifth grader? 37.....38....39..... we are still counting. Never forget thes people deal with money and food for a living, be afraid.

p.s my own person dftd... where the hell is spellcheck... ahahahahahahaha not fixed yet.

would reiki help?
Alright I said .. or at least thought one post per day. But maybe I am overloading since when I have surgery I might not get and opportunity.
But first a shout out to Mike G for reminding me look there is and app. for that. So now I can write on this blog... on my Droid... Yay Droid really Does.
Question: Why bother talking about people and be surprise when somebody tells? I work with "Two Face," "Bald Face, " "Lord of the Faces," and "Awww Yes You Are a Face, Sorry." It took all I could not to ask Bald Face how he felt about Awww Yes You are a Face... Sorry telling on him.
Hello Face Nation why on earth are you surprised that we the " baby faces," laugh about it and talk about it?
Dear insert Face Name;
We the baby faces would like you to please stop talking about each other. Please do not misunderstand it is pretty damn funny, but we do have to help customers...
Sincerely,(omg ha ha please stop haven't we all read a management book????)
your baby faces
If I had a dollar for every time a member of the Face Nation talking about each other My Face would be on some money. I thought we all knew do not be surprised if someone tells it. Whatever it is. D.f.t.d. .... If people can't keep safes closed what makes you think they can keep their mouths shut?

Really 3 D
Today I really thought I would have to search hard for a d.f.t.d. But no f'in way. Today I have found and endless supply of them. Well I had to start the day with 3D entering the house and not speaking at all. But later this morning he calls and wants me to pay the bills because he can not figure out how to. As I sit here in amazement I realize I am no better than his rude a@@. Sorry Mom I have manners.... But dumb a @@
I lose…. I am the moron. I am sitting here getting angry about how stupid he is. Don’t I have anything better to do? Besides he does not care that he is “special.” Reminds me of a good quote; “There is a difference between stupid and ignorant.” I am ignorant because I am allowing him to pick my last nerve. He… he is… well I am going to start today not letting anyone determine who I am.
But Dang, as my son would say, it is hard, I am off in prayer.... and Starbucks.
16 pump vanilla venti black tea... on my way..

Dumb really dumb
I was sitting in the basement last night, not sleeping as usual and decided I should have a blog. But what do I write about. I am not Julie, Julia, The Mocha Angel, or a beauty blogger. Plus I doubt I write really well.
I thought about blogging for me, not anyone else. Maybe during this journey I can track my own growth. And maybe just maybe support and help someone else.
Let me explain the title Dumb for the Day; everyday I have to call or text my mom with something so simply stupid someone(even me) did or said. We talk a little about it but it is fun and really gives some perspective. That no matter what goes on there is always something to laugh about.
Well I definitely need that laugh. I am going to have surgery 1/20 so I might not make a post then, but I will be forever vigilant and locate the never allusive d.f.t.d.
I leave today with this d.f.t.d. I was at Starbucks and a woman was there talking about her phone bill it was over $2000. After a chorus of wows, finally someone asked why it was so high. She responed it was her son texting. so many people said they would kill him. She whimpered, " He is only a baby." He was eight. Really.... Yes really.
