Ramblings....

Well, I felt compelled to post something, so here I go....


I've realized that true to Obama's promise, the only thing I have to rely on right now is Hope and Change...

Change is constant. Things happen, roll with it.

Hope...well, due to the congresscritters and the newly re-elected POTUS, I can only hope I will still have a job after sequestration hits.

At this point I am beyond caring. They'll come up with some quick fix to keep the .gov running, they always do, but at what cost?

Eh. I don't really care about that either. At this point it's pretty obvious we're all screwed. Not just the US but everyone. Things are about to get ugly in these United States as well as the rest of the world. If the recent spate of petitions for secession are any indication, the people are prety well pissed off. The Media seems to not care and continues to tow the socialist party line. It's quite telling when Rush Limbaugh sounds more like a Libertarian than a Republican...just sayin.

I don't expect the world to end on the 21st of December....but I will be in good company if it does ( 2 horses, 3 dogs and 4 cats...oh and a couple of Axolotls)

I like my job. I don't make bank or anything, but I enjoy the people I work with and my boss is a pretty hands off type and I have practically ZERO micromanagement. Which suits me just fine thank you. I have opportunities to move and take on different responsibilities, but I am just not really inclined to do so at this time.

My co-worker and I have a running deal that since things are working so well for us, if one of us leaves, the other one will too. hehe.

I've had awesome jobs in the past and hoped that they would cntinue to stay that way, but change is inevitable. Randall (RIP) was probably my collest boss ever. He was, bar none one of my best friends and I respected him more than most people that have been in my life. But as time goes on, the world about us changes and we must change with it.

For the last several years I have been chadsing my past looking for hope and salvation in the past. I realized, the hard way, that this is absurd. You can never go back. ever.

I cherish my friendships I've managed to maintain for the long years, but my life is different now. I have come to realize that I need to accept the future and move forward and not pine for relics of the past.

If the .gov decides it is their best interest to cut my job, then so be it. For the time being I am going to continue to do what I do with due diligence and if I get let go (again) well, I will make that hurdle when it comes.

I have an amazing support network and I have a really awesome girlfriend. She's very pragmatic which is rather refreshing. She's open minded and is willing to learn new things. Not a gold-digger and not chasing rainbows. I'm very fortunate.

I guess I don't have much more tonight. I have been composing a new post in my head for days, but for some reason it isn't ready yet. I actually have alot to say, but I am going to be very particular about what i say when it is really important.

This is kind of a stream of conciousness post. Which is ok too. I just needed to say something since i have been so silent for so long.

In the meantime, for those of you that actually read this....Keep your powder dry and die with your boots on!
