Its a Sunday, and guess who is at work ... me. I don't mind all that much though, if they want to pay me overtime for this, let them, it will buy me a nice 64-bit processor later on this week for a new computer I am building.

So V-Day yesterday ... I was bartending. Is it wrong to openly flirt with a girl who is sitting with her boyfriend? Apparently not ... in my opinion. Poor sap, valentines day and I am taking her attention ... sorry man, them's the breaks when your up against the gayest straight man ever.

I have to say, I have the best god damn friends in the whole world. I have the best life for that matter. On Friday night, I went out swing dancing (I haven't been for years and years, but it starts to come back to you so quickly), and I'll be damned if I didn't have the best time ever, and all my friends knew nothing about it, except for the most basic of moves. I had such a great time teaching them little things here and there, and then I found out, this Swing night is an untapped resource of single women. It was unreal, tons of young single women, and what better way to dance with a woman than with a shit-eating grin on your face, which is the only way to swing dance.

Saturday morning I woke up and went over to my friend's place, where they had made breakfast. French toast and potatoes, eggs, bacon, sausage, hand-squeezed OJ ... a little bourbon, hehe. All with a little bit of the weed to make it taste just a bit better.

Oh yeah, so sometimes I spend a bit of time with my "other" friends. These guys are nice and all, and their intentions are good, but sometimes I just worry that their heads are in the clouds. Wealth tends to breed pretense. These guys sat there viewing a diamond that one of the guys bought for his girlfriend for V-Day. Yes, I suppose it is nice to have a hobby and all, but sitting there inspecting a diamond? And may I note that the inspection took about one hour. Then we get into political discussions. This one kid, I am glad he is only an friend of a friend. I would never be this guys direct friend. His views just scare me so much. He has no compassion except for that of his own well being. Power, greed and wealth are the only things worthwhile to him. He actually said that those who are mentally handicaped should be left to die ... that is, if they are not wealthy enough to afford themselves care. I followed that with the comment, 'Oh good, only the rich retards survive', he didn't appreciate that. This man is the kind of man that would buy people as slaves, I have no doubt of that in my mind. I felt dirty after talking with him. The worst part is that we actually have many common friends. He is apparently also close to different members of the Consulates of Switzerland, although I doubt it is a friendship for him, more likely it is a network in his mind. Its just sick. The sad thing is, I have no doubt in my mind that he will climb to be a very powerful person in business someday. Why? Because this is America, and his views directly reflect those of our president.

To end on a happy note ... hmmm, while typing this at work, I just made some good money ... HA! Just kidding, that isn't right, and my damn concience will cause me not to put this time down, but it's nice to think that they trust me enough to do so. Values are the cornerstone of improvement in your life and those lives that surround you. A kind word can make a life more worth living.
