Have been working the past DECADE on setting boundaries and holding ground when it happens to me. I don't ever think I'll pick a fight on purpose like some individuals like to do but if I'm provoked I can represent.<br /><br />(It all just sucks really. Except for cake. Cake never sucks.)<br /><br />Someone I wish I could emulate? A close friend of mine is an attorney. She's about 4 feet tall and very, very polite and very, very soft spoken. I LOVE seeing people unknowingly pick a fight with her. It's an awesome thing to behold. She's like a Velvet Hammer in a twig-sized package — people have NO IDEA what just hit them. And she reserves it only for those that have it coming. She once had a Subway restaurant looking like a scene from "Norma Rae" with Sally Fields. <br /><br />Photo Tip: If you have a version of Adobe Photoshop, open the photo in Photoshop (it will appear right side up). Ignore its lies, we know it's really upside down. Go into 'Image', go down to 'Rotate Canvas', pick '180 degrees' (or another degree, it doesn't matter), let it flip the photo, then go back and rotate the canvas again '180 degrees' again so it's upright once again. Hit Save. It'll come up right side up in whatever you place it in from then on. <br /><br />This has something to do with the device that you snap it on...smart phones, digital cameras, it's all the same.
