Miscellaneous

The past week...make that the past couple months have been kinda crazy. Well, as far as my life goes anyway. In July I started a new position at work. Overall I like it better than my last job. There are things I will miss, however. The thing I absolutely hate is that I'm so much more visible. I feel like people are watching every move I make. And I feel like I have something to prove to certain people. I guess the people I feel like I need to prove something to are the people I really don't care what they think. Does that make sense? Anyway, that explains the lack of posting. That and I had this feeling of being taken for granted and it was depressing me.

So last week I posted about the death of a former coworker. I feel kinda bad I was being so pissed at someone who died so horribly. I feel like I should tell people that I did contribute a little to a diabetes charity (Thanks to Mary on that). I guess I just want people to know I'm not just bitching about it, but hopefully helping too.

This week my boy started school full time. He is having a great time. He talks about his classmates a lot.

There was something else I'm forgetting to post. I forget now. I'm be back to add something I'm sure. I probably should post some kind of picture....Oh, tomorrow at work I'll post the gray tree frog that was on my house a couple weeks ago. It was awesome. G'night!

Crash

I guy I used to work with died in a horrible car crash last week. I have very mixed feelings about the whole situation. Maybe I shouldn't say anything until I know all the facts. The assumption is that he had a sugar-fit. He was a diabetic. When your blood sugar runs low it makes you crazy and irrational. If you were diabetic you would take every precaution you could to make sure you don't hurt yourself or anyone right? Years ago he had an episode at work, which, until recently was remembered as being a pretty humorous event. I would have hoped that alone would have woken him up a bit. So, ok, fast forward. He was driving on a fast road/highway and crossed the median crashing head on into a semi-truck, not before clipping other innocent people. He did this without even slowing down. Thank goodness nobody else was seriously hurt. I guess what I have a problem with is why the fuck someone would be so damn careless. What if it was my family driving instead of the semi-truck? All because some stupid ass can't take care of himself? Ok, Jesus, he died. I don't know why I can't forgive him. I'm really pissed about it for some reason. I feel like I shouldn't vent to people at work because they would think I'm cold. A bunch of people are going to his wake I hear. Some of them people that haven't seen him in a while either. My feeling is why should I waste gas to pay my respects to this guy? Why can't I get over this? How is this any different than drunk driving? Someone set me straight.

Greets From Camp

Well, the rest of the food hasn't been bad. I can't speak for breakfast because I am sleeping through it. Everything else is great. The kids are good. The exercise is great. I just wish I had an excuse to play in a band. I wish I had time to play in that band. I'll be back later with some wildlife updates.

This One Time At Bandcamp...

Today's lunch was 'Taco in a bag'. Just a small bag of doritos with everything you'd put on a taco. Now there's nothing to look forward to the rest of the week. I will welcome phone calls this week, anytime after 12 pm. It'll get kinda boring during the day.
