The randomness of now.
I havent been able to think of anything that would fill up a whole post, or what I imagine a postings length should be. Because of this, I have decided to touch on some random things I think about lately, or feel should be addressed, or just want to prattle on about. Putting all of these together should then meet my...

Thanks, I'll probably need it. A lot of my coworkers have been looking and it seems like there is not a lot out there right now. Still, I am going to try. I've got to get out of this place.

You are welcome! Merry Christmas!
Four More Years
Almost a week has passed since this years election, and I am still happy about it.
Going into Tuesday, I was nervous, anxious, but optimistic. I had a feeling that the President would be re-elected, but part of me knew that Romney wouldnt go quietly. I prepared for a long night, a drawn out decision to be made, and was very surprised...

LOL! Yea... Mr. Rogers cannot have his sweater back. hahaa!! Glad you're good :~)) I am doing pretty good myself. went through a pretty big rough patch, but I'm a lot better now... things are starting to look up.
epicurea:
i love this! really anything with an owl and i'm down.
So, I went and voted today, and I hope you have or will, depending on where you are.
Personally I am hoping for 4 more years of Obama and Biden.
I do this because Romney scares me, and I feel it will be back tracking, and that's not what the U.S. needs right now.
I am distracting myself until the polls start to close, then...

That was truely sweet. We picked all the winners, with the exception of our state senator and rep. We live in a very red neighborhood. However, both houses of the state legislature were flipped from red to blue, which is really all I ever wanted. Add that to our blue governor, and things might start to move forward in this state.
It was a great day! I'm very curious to see what happens in Washington. BTW, Michele Bachmann got the shit scaerd out of her, almost losing. If there's no progress, in two years, she and her ilk could be swept out, just as quickly as they came in.
Nice job with your senator.

Me and My Teams
This years baseball playoffs have brought me to a couple decisions, or opinions if you will.
1. The one game playoff for Wild Cards is bullshit. Yes it brought drama to the game, but it lets too much ride on chance, and not who the better team is. Personally, I think if they want to go with two wild cards, they...

Thank you

I don't know much about any of those sports, but I wholeheartedly agree with the last sentence.
No Idea
This wont be my usual kind of post, because right now I am not in my usual state of mind.
I am having one of those nights where I dont know how to articulate anything, and for someone that talks a lot, thats kind of a big deal.
I dont know if it appears like I know what I am doing, but more...

Banned Book Week
Banned Book Week is upon us and it was caused me to reflect on what has caused people to want to ban books.
Some of the topics that popped up again and again were
-Language
-Sexuality
-Violence
-Religion
These are definitely polarizing topics, hell they are usually ones referred to as something you dont talk about on a first date because of...

Black and White?
The world is not black and white!
No matter what you think, there will always be something more to it, another side if you will!
There are many polarizing topics in the world, and as Election Season is upon us, I am reminded of this.
I lived in a black and white world for a good chunk of my life, but then...

Well said!!!! And It was such an amazing time!
karolin:
Thank you so much for your comment
WOW!
I literally just read a section of a book that was, quite honestly, perfect. Letter bled into letter, forming words that strung themselves together into sentences, sentences that made way to paragraphs, paragraphs that conveyed a scene so well done, that I was stopped in my tracks, stopped in my tracks smiling as my eyes scanned more and more, give them more, please keep...

ah shucks, thanks mister

You really should pursue writing. I often feel like I have an experience similar to the one that you describe when I read your journals. I just can never articulate how I feel as well as you do.
All The Sap!!!
From time to time my mind gets into what I call good head space, things make sense, thoughts are clear, my perspective comes around, and realizations are made. I got into this space again tonight, or last night, or the other day, depending on when you read this of course. Once I arrived, some things made themselves apparent to me, and those...

That's wonderful, I hope you continue on your journey to being well rounded and happy. And fulfilled.
It Was a Surprise to Me!
I had a vision of what kind of blog I was going to write, what I was going to say when I sat down on my days off and described my trip to Vancouver. I figured I would get my pictures on my computer and edited, that the memories would flow forth, and I would compile some kind of...

RIght! I think part of me feels like friend #1 maybe didn't expect me to actually show up. Like he assumed I didn't have the motivation to get a job (because I was having a tough time at that point) and that I wouldn't show up and then he could tell me that he had "tried to help me" and I hadn't taken it. So I'm feeling like none of it was genuine. Sucks to lose a friend, but I also feel like he did it by ignoring ME first. He also went through a really shitty time last year and I was 100% there for him, even though I was going through my own shit at the time so I feel even more scorned. Ugh.
Luckily the 2nd one, isn't a great friend anyways. Someone I met fairly recently but did really like. And unfortunately, I can't fully avoid him right now but hopefully will be able to soon hahah. Fuck condescending people, man. Most annoying.
Rant over.
