You know what the midwest is?
Young and restless
Seems to be pretty accurate lately. Been feeling restless lately which is making certain things in life more difficult then normal. Then again, as I have been known to say “Farnaby Prevails.” The world is my oyster after all.
Storms are preparing to roll in right now and I am looking forward to it. They should be here in about 20 minutes, maybe before I even finish writing this. Speaking of weather I am getting really sick of seeing TS Hanna or Hurricane Ike shit on weather.com. Ungh, I seriously don’t care about the damn things so stop showing me crap about them. Same way I feel whenever there is a serious storm anywhere other then where I am. And when its here… I am probably out in it.
So anyway, standard up stuff time. Took this week quietly for the most part. BBQ on Monday before I went for a ride. Nice pleasant little ride. Tuesday was uneventful. Wednesday I ended up finishing off legendary in Halo3 with Andy. The last level actually took a lot less time then on Normal even if it was a lot more difficult. Now I need to get around to running through it on single player and from there… who knows, Mass Effect perhaps.
Thursday I finally made it back to Sandy’s. God I had missed the place and didn’t realize how much until I walked in again. Friday was BBQ and the Dead Pool. Today I went for a nice long ride after a target run. It was great to get away from life again for a few hours. Around 200 miles all told, up to Taylor’s falls, over to Amery, Down to Martell, back through River falls and headed home. Just a few miles shy of ticking my bike past 23k. Hard to believe that I have had it for barely over 2 years and I have put so many more miles then average on. And at the same time, I am way way behind a lot of people that I know.
Work is work, Monday will be rough but that’s a part of life. We are spending a lot of time drowning in training but there is nothing that can be done about it. The lady who is our over-boss is scared for her job so it helps her justify things. Particularly if we actually do our jobs and do them right.
Had an incident today where I got to see the uglier side of people. Always disappointing to realize how petty and … well I don’t know what else to say about it. There are a lot of things I could say but overall I just want to look at them and go “What makes you so much better?” Thing is… I rather doubt they would ever understand my perspective on things. They never seem to.
in other news… Well there doesn’t seem to be much other news. Tomorrow is going to be a day of taking care of business. Laundry, cleaning, trimming, etc. All the standard stuff. Maybe see my parents for the first time in like 3 weeks. Just general sort of stuff like that. Work on my resume some more as well.
Still debate on and off about whether or not I should bother keeping this website. I don’t really use it for much. So I might not renew the domain next time its up. Not sure but there is a bit of time there before it comes up.
So that’s that and I think I hear the fat lady singing.
