A Little Diversion Called Life.
It’s been awhile since I’ve posted. Been busy with life. Needless to say I have been traveling all over for work, going up to Northern Arizona on the weekends and just enjoying the little things of life, and the big things as well. But I also have not written in awhile because of the last post and the idiot that decided to post the mean and nasty comment. After a well investigated search, I’ve come to the conclusion that I really could care less who that person is. Although I am 99% sure of who it was, I figure, hell, let him just wallow in his miserable life and continue on the downward spiral. I even thought about posting a link to the Maricopa County Court System to be really mean and cruel, but then I though, eh, that would be stooping to the low level that he is at. So, all in all, he knows who he is and well, that’s enough said. All, I have to say is you know who your friends are, and you definitely know who are not. The end.
A lot has gone on in the world, since I last posted. There are so many things I could comment on, and going forward I definitely will, such as:
1. Can you believe Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown broke up? FINALLY. It’s about damn time. I can’t wait for her next “I’m so damn mad screaming diva” album.
2. How low can gas prices go with the election coming up? Can the Republicans be any more obvious? Gas hit under $2.00 a gallon in my hometown of Cleveland, Ohio. Hummer sales are going to SOAR! (Whatever.)
3. OK, can Joey Lawrence get any hotter? As far as I am concerned, he IS the star in “Dancing with the Stars” on ABC. (Of course, there is that little rumor that Joey is known for having something big, other than his dancing ability…but I digress…sigh…)
4. I just love Meredith Viera on the Today Show. She seems so much more fun than Katie Couric.
5. The political election in Phoenix and Arizona is getting absolutely INSANE. God, love my Janet sign in my front yard! John Kyl is a complete idiot. I cannot wait till mid-November when there are no political attack ads.
6. When will NASA understand that the debris flying off the Space Shuttle is not the problem considering that the Shuttle itself IS a pile of ancient flying debris. Did they ever think about putting nice smooth large panels over all those exposed pipes and wires so that debris wouldn’t float all over the place?
7. When was the last time you were yelled at like a child by your President?
8. The new “Here and Now” Monopoly game is fabulously fun! They even have a space for Cleveland, Ohio (Mediterranean Ave) and Phoenix, Arizona (Kentucky Avenue). Check out the actually game pieces….way cool.
9. Dealing with job recruiters can be way frustrating.
Speaking of Job Recruiters, I have decided to take the job search seriously considering my boss has become even more of a “C You Next Tuesday”. In fact, its getting extremely hard to get out of bed and go to work. Work has turned from a fun career to a job. To manage, I’ve now manipulated my schedule to “work from home” on Fridays. It does give me some relief but it’s still hard working with a woman who does nothing but lie to you. I’ve stepped up my front by contacting Employee Relations at my company. Unfortunately, the problem is when you work in Human Resources, you ARE employee relations. There’s really no place to go when someone in HR has a problem. Which sucks. So, in an effort to change my work life around I have decided to funnel my frustration and negative energy into finding another job. And it’s starting to work. I had 2 interviews with 2 different companies and have to return calls back to 2 additional ones. So, its hopefully a matter of time before I have an offer on the table. I really do love my job and actually do like the company, but I cannot work for this woman any more. Only time will tell.
The good part is that I have a lot of diversions other than work going on. You know the little and big things in life: the house, Tim, travel, and trying to relax. I finally got my mountain bike tuned up and it’s ready to roll. Now that the weather in getting cooler I can enjoy it once again. Who knows, maybe I’ll have a story to tell about the biking adventures around Phoenix? More to come….
