Ace on the River
Crap: The last few days have had some rather intense ups and downs, so I apologize to any of you who've had to see me in that state (the not as *cheerful-happy Jen* we're all used to). But, I am happy to say that where I used to say that too much happiness can be bad (because of the inevitable bad to follow) my optimism kicking in (with help from a couple true friends) taught me that also where there is bad, there is eventually the good that follows. Appreciating the good at the moment. Inevitable conclusions lead me to a positive outlook. I did learn *something* from Camus’ take on Existentialism; live in the now because all that other crap doesn’t really matter. Ok, not quite how he worded it, but you get the gist. When you fall, just brush yourself off, and chalk it up to experiance. Pocket aces gotta come up eventually.
More crap: I’ve been wrapping myself up in learning everything I can for my future in hostile multimillion dollar company takeovers, such as learning the arts of office politics, *smoozing the executives* and the dreaded golf. I wanted racquetball. I was told I had to learn golf *cringes.* This all plays into the future ‘California plan.’ I don’t know why the hell all the corporate wieners can’t just play foosball. Ooo, or Nintendo! I would so kick all their asses at some Dr. Mario or Duck Hunt! Rather some poker, pool, tennis… anything but golf! *sigh* Yeah, yeah… I should be hitting the ranges this weekend. Not happy about it though.
~Friday I went to my first Rocky Horror Picture Show with Laurie. (Yes, I know there are those of you who have been a million-zillion times. I missed that part of my theather career.) That was such as wild time! And yes, there are pictures.
~Saturday was the surprise party for Dave where I had my ass handed to me in a little Texas Hold ‘em.
~Slim possibility of moving out to California in a year or so. Details later. *crosses fingers for luck*
