This whole manual labor stuff is starting to wear on me. I certainly never really imagined myself doing landscaping with a psychology degree but, eh it's a job. I think our country is headed toward over education. Eventually everyone will be so educated that no one will want to do any of the manual labor jobs, thus I believe those jobs will starting offering more pay as the over education trend continues. My theory is slightly more involved than that, I just don't really feel like writing an essay about it right now. But I really do think the country is headed in that direction.
I have decided though that I want to go back to school to become a nurse. However, my one major hurdle would be actually getting admitted into a nursing program at some relatively credible university. I guess I shouldn't have slacked off so bad during my years as an undergraduate. I feel that I may have screwed myself and made it nearly impossible to go back. I'll figure it out though.
Living in a tourist town in which none of the business can actually hire high school kids, since none of them want to work, many of the businesses around here have turned toward hiring Jamaicans and Russians. They're basically migrant workers. This doesn't bother me in the slightest but, what does bother me is that these people are paid substantially less than anybody else doing the exact same thing. I don't really know where I was going with that thought, but it's nice to write it down.
I've also come to the realization that I'm hypersensitive to guys calling girls fat. Mostly because the girls that always seem to be "fat" aren't even remotely. It's just this bizzarro notion that all women should be rail thin. Being someone that has (and is still dealing with) anorexia, I know how much it sucks to be called fat and made to think you're hideous. It's hard to really describe, but it makes me incredibly angry when it happens. The only other thing that probably makes me just as angry is when someone refers to a group of women as "bitches". Thanks, you dumb rapper motherfuckers. I had to vent that.
11 days until Rancid in NYC. I have an extra ticket to this show, so if there are any beautiful women out there that would like to accompany me...
