Yep,
It's been a long time since i've "LJ'd". So i guess it's about time i do so, eh?
Life has remained basically the same. School, work, school...work. I guess the only really interesting thing that happened was a woman yelling & swearing at me, because she messed up on the pinpad just about 5 times. Oh ya...it was with her food stamp card. Why was i suprised that she was obnoxious, and felt entitled to everything? hmmm...
I leave for Colorado Monday morning. I'm looking forward to it. It will be nice to get away from school and work for a while. I have to admit that i'm burned out. I need to get away from customers. The last year or so i have made an effort to not retaliate, and sometimes that is hard...really hard. There is only so much dis-respect one can tolerate before cracking...and let me tell you, i have felt like cracking while i have been at work the last 3 or 4 weeks. I guess it's all of that compounded with all of the changes going on at work. Barb left, and now we are left with Joe. He's a nice enough guy, but he is L-A-Z-Y! I'm not going to badmouth him or anything, because that's not right...i'll just leave it at that.
I used to watch wrestling when i was a kid. I didn't just watch wrestling, i was obsessed with it. I loved it. Make fun of me, say what you want...whatever...i enjoyed it. Therefore Sunday was a strangley sad day for me when i learned that Eddie Guerrero, a wrestler i had watched the past 9 or 10 years had passed away. He died of heart failure, and the scary thing is he was only 38. I just hate seeing people pass away that i once looked up to. When i was 10 or 11 all i dreamed about was wrestling. Just a childhood dream, but still. When it comes to any form of entertainment, whether it be movies, music etc...you let those people into your lives. That's why it is so sad to see somebody you were so familiar with just disappear. Hearing his story really made me smile though. He had abused drugs for years, but 4 years ago found God, and totally cleaned up his act. He had a wife, and 3 daughters...a true family man. It is things like this that make you realize how fast life can be taken from us...how insignificant we are in the grand scheme of things. It makes you wonder why we waste so much time hating, and arguing. It's sad...but in the eternal words of one J. Cash " I don't like it, but i guess things happen that way." - God Bless
