work blogging is hard.

i have spent the last two hours NOT publishing a blurb on my org's blog because i think i'm too stupid. i didn't go to business school, i cannot read more than two sentences of the wallstreet journal without nodding off, and besides... i can't keep on track. especially when there is gchat.

me:
i'm feeling a bit frustrated
Alexandra: uh oh about what?
me: this blog
i hate it
i so do not know what i'm talking about
Alexandra: oooh yeah thats tough, whats the topic?
me: not sure lol
Alexandra: haha
me: what a social enterprise stock market would look like and how non profs and for profs are merging
ew.
i dont even know what that means
Alexandra: social enterprise stock market? where they dont necessarily try to maximize shareholder profits? they somehow measure social benefits?
me: yes
but its unclear
because non-profs and for-profs would be going head to head... but for-profs would obviously get more investors because of possibility for financial return too...
which means
more companies like IC companies would flourish
cuz they provide both
BUT
that kinda erodes NPs alltogether... and they bring a little sumin sumin else to the table
so is it really the best atmosphere for our world? will anything even EXIST that doesn't drive off of capital???
Alexandra: true. and its really complicated to try to quantify their social "profit" to compete with financial
me: (i am obviously anti... which is why i do not belong in this sector) lol
exactly
but Bcorp could be the answer and i'm trying to wrap them in here
Alexandra: hmmm
smart lady
me: (but i'm afraid if i write what i just did to you... that i am incorrect with understanding what a social stock exchange even IS and then make IC look dumb publicly)
gulp.
Alexandra: right. wikipedia?
me: good call



back to work.
=)

i hate that i don't hate astrology

but it is so spot on!!!
ridic ridic ridic.


You're not awfully good at being disagreed with. You delve into matters, think them through thoroughly and expect your
conclusions to be universally shared. Flexibility is not your strong suit. No one should try to lie to you or keep things from you. Somehow you ferret out others' secrets although you keep your own.

Your love nature is very turbulent. You form relationships impulsively and then worry it's with the wrong person. There seems to be a dichotomy between the person you know yourself to be and the person you feel you should be in order to be valued and loved.


If you act upon your natural instincts, you are aggressive, sexual and competitive. If you do not, you may be somewhat passive and fearful with a great deal of repressed anger which expresses itself in temper. Your ego needs are exceptionally strong.

Since you were a child you have felt you could not just be yourself and be loved. You had to earn your love in some way by being or doing something special. You are far more self-protective than most people realize. Your best love partners are also work partners.
