Current Issues

Work has been outrageous.

It's challenging in all the right ways, but some of the things that happen are just exhausting.

I long for the day that I go without seeing an enormous turd in someone's unders, or picking up the phone receiver to receive the slobber of a small child on my face. I can't imagine working anywhere else, but I can imagine things running a little more smoothly. 

I will say, however, that the Dale is a bit lonely, leaving me lonesome and lazy. I sleep in on mornings and read and am hacking my way haphazardly through Family Video's ample selections. Sunday, The Godfather Trilogy! 

I'm working my way through the classics, but only the modern ones.

I've also been merciless to my gas tank as I travel long and hard to visit my friends spread across the midwest. However, I've gained several good road trip mixes, a way to conquer wind-blown hair (who needs A/C?), and painful memories (like my ridiculous sunburn on the way back from the Palmer-Burris wedding). 

Love.
