The music you should hear when somebody says "please hold"

" The hold music is so bad I wanted to kill my self" I once had a customer say that to me. Too bad I have no control what so ever when it comes to what customers hear on the other end of the phone but if I did these would be the top ten songs I would totally play and why.


1. Woe is Me covering Katy Perry's Last Friday Night because "strippers clothes are in the pool" is a lyric every realtor, homeowner and angry old person needs to hear.. "skinny dipping in the dark"  needs to be heard as well.


2. Falling Down by Atreyu. All people need to be reminded "We're all dyin' in the end". This song will refresh their memory. It may even help them not to yell at a Rep.


3. Easy E's Boyz in the hood. I can just see their faces as they hear "coz the boys in the hood are always hard  you come talkin that trash, well pull ya card knowin nutin in life but to be legit" haha.


4. Limp Bizkit's Eat you Alive because every customer should hear the song Fred wrote after Britney Spears broke his heart. "hey you misses i don't know what the fuck your name is i'm drawn to you" I guess "i'd love to sniff on them panties now" never got her attention but I bet you it would get the customers.


5. No Hard Feelings by Bloodhound gang. Cause seriously it "Ain't my job
To fuck you on your birthday " or any other day of your shit life so don't be fuckin rude. "Maybe it ain't your birthday but then again Ya know i wouldn't give a fuck" 


6. Beastie Boys- Sabotage since 85% of the calls are all victims of everything in life. "Listen all y'all, it's a sabotage"

7. Know your Enemy by Rage Against the Machine because callers need to remember it's not the rep on the phone. We only wanna help you. They can hear De La Rocha yell "Compromise, conformity, assimilation, submission, Ignorance, hypocrisy, brutality, the elite All of which are American dreams " and then remind them "Know your enemy!"


8. Chingo Bling's Put my Chanclas on. He always makes me laugh and sometimes I just wanna say "Me vale madre " to some people.

9. T.I's Get YA shit together because I swear some bitches just need to be told " match ya panties with ya bras, get ya shit together"

10. Good day by Ice Cube. Everybody should be thankful "Just wakin up in the mornin gotta thank God I don't know but today seems kinda odd" "Today I didn't even have to use my A.K. I got to say it was a good day"


Thank you for calling and you have a wonderful day!

It's no secret.....

Atreyu makes me happy <3. It's raining out side and just one of those wanna stay in bed and mimis day's. Can I say I'm totally jealous my son got to go to my BFF Norma's house and I didn't. Instead I'm home about to hit the laundry room with a load of dark clothes and go stuff my crock pot with a whole chicken. But before I do I'm listening to the Best of Atreyu on Spotify. My Best of Atreyu is trapped in my mom's truck's CD changer. I may never see it again. Did I mention I'm beyond lazy because after working all week long getting yelled at by customers who don't know how to pay their assessments and trying to understand the new Canadian words so I can make sure my coworkers don't get lost when they hear homeowners say "sanction" and "Estoppel"  and "leak in the washroom" they don't mistake washroom for a laundry room.

Like the Canadian rep said yesterday during our conference call "it's going to be a PRO-Cess".  
Now if I could only get the PRO-Cess started on getting my ass to Canada to get tattooed by Jesse Perrault and see My Andrea!

It warms my <3

They make me happy, they warm my heart. I am speaking of Atreyu. No I'm not talking about the movie. I'm talking about the band, who has found it's way into my heart. They've become my favorite over these past years. I've had the chance to see them twice and I even have a autograph drum head from them. If you don't listen to them you should. They got me through the lamest 7 months of my life. Everyday I would drive my one hour drive to work with them on super loud singing my ass off preparing my self for another day to survive my long lame 7 months. I don't get tired of them. I can listen to them over and over. From "Lip gloss and black" to "Storm to pass" I love it all. When "Her portrait in black" comes on it gives me chills I love how it starts off so heavy. "Blow" gives me the courage to tell lairs to fuck off! "Bleeding mascara" makes me wanna sing! "Ex's and oh's" makes me wanna dance. I love "The crimson". Below I posted some of my favorite lyrics by them. I had to post all of "Blow" though. It's just for one of those days when you wanna beat a punching bag or somebodies face. I hope they start touring soon. I'm getting my concert fix next month with Weezer but I still wanna see Atreyu again.

Can you feel her
Running through your veins?
She will always live forever**Her portrait in black***



Will you still hold me when you see what I have done?
Will you still kiss me the same when you taste my victim's blood?
So crimson and red, I feel it flowing from your lips (crimson and red)
My heart is dead and so are you**The crimson***

"Look how pretty she is, when she falls down,
Now there is no beauty in, bleeding mascara,
Lip are quivering, like a withering rose" **Bleeding Mascara**



You took me home
I drank too much
'Cause of you my liver turned to dust
Cold rust taste
A cruel creeping cold pain
Do you understand what I mean?
When you feel your soul drop to the floor
Like a hole
Like an open bleeding sore
Then you'll have bled like I bled
And you'll have wept as I've wept

Suck me down, it's time to rock and roll
Let's hit the bar, let's lose control
One false move, you took me home
One false move, you're all alone**Ex's and oh's**









So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies, and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.

Oh my god did you just hear
lies are coming back in style?
Oh my god this seems so real that they find you,
and confine you

So shut your mouth, we've heard it all.
Hypocrite's and critics all
can fuck off we do this for our souls,
our souls.

What they say, won't make us go away.

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies,
and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.

We're not sorry and we won't conform.
It's not our choice but something inborn.
If we fail followin' are hearts
can you blame us? (No, no, no)

A square peg in a black hole
We don't fit in that's the way it goes.
You should of not thought you're better than us,
no, you're not.
(No, no, no)

What they say, won't make us go away.

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies,
and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies,
and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.
(Blow, blow, blow)
Blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.

Tell yourself yourself you're not alone at all.
(Looking out your window, know you're all alone)
Oh, tell yourself you're not alone at all. (At all)
(Staring out your window, know you're alone)

What they say, won't make us go away.
Go away, go away, go away.

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies,
and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.

So fuckin' blow those words out the back of your head,
I've heard it all and I'm done with that shit,
You tell me lies,
and you get what you get,
so blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.
(Blow, blow, blow)
Blow those fuckin' words out the back of your head.
(Of your head, of your head, of your head)
Yea!**Blow***




I know that it's killing me,
and it's poisoning the best of me,
What I see, I don't want to believe.
So let me tell you more, tell you more,
about the lies I lead.**Slow burn***


Watching, waiting
Dreadful, shaking
Will the storm pass over us today?
Will lighting strike our sins away?
Watching, Waiting
Falling, Shaking
Will the storm pass over us today?
Or is the future looking grey?**Storm to pass***

I of course want to get my Atreyu tattoo someday. "Live, Love, Burn, Die"

The to blog about list...

These are some things I have been wanting to write about and since my thoughts usually pour into my head so fast I forget about them so I decided to make a reminder blog list.

I'm sure I will think of more things but for right now this is all that comes to mind. I probably won't be writing the blogs in this order either.

The cube farm...

That sort of describes the office in a way. My desk is just behind the receptionist desk which works well because when it gets too busy im the only one who's allowed to help her with answering the phones and all the other great office work she sometimes needs help with. I sit here with my lil radio which I sometimes connect the AUX cable to so I can listen to the good stuff like Atreyu, Rise Against, and Weezer. It helps my blood flow better and prep me for every client appointment I have during the day. I have a family picture to my right which is a full family picture. By full I mean it includes my son from a previous relationship, my husbands son and daughter from a previous relationship and our daughter we have together. Just below that is the picture of the hubs and i at his company xmas party. Under that is the picture of a purple hippo which I colored. I love hippos and the hubs hates them. The face he makes when you even mention them is priceless! Always a good laugh. I also have a picture of a owl on that side that I also colored. We had a ground owl that lived in our backyard and my mom covered up his hole twice because she kept saying it was not a good sign. I loved it. It was so cool to see a actual owl in the backyard. To the left of me I have a drawing done by a tattoo artist that I would love to collect a piece from some day. In front of me is a picture of a painting I printed out done by another tattoo artist who's work I love as well..this is my cube..
