Pulling Names From A Hat

Image source: Google.com - Author unkown.The hardest part about being on a hiatus is the mass of information you return with, but yet have no clue where to start with it. I have had quite a few things happen to me or around me over these past few weeks, but yet I can not decide if I want to immediately dive in and gross people out with pictures of mice droppings, or do a post about my adorable dog.

I’ve been sorting through my pictures and preparing to upload them, as well as write a short blurb about the events that matter but that is taking longer than expected. I really do take an absurd amount of pictures.1

On top of that, DH is preparing to go to Washington, DC for the inauguration. He is so excited it borders on ridiculous. From the moment I gave the thumbs up for him to go2 he has spent these past few weeks making endless reservations to see everything historic in DC. I must admit I was a little annoyed by that because it wasn’t supposed to be a vacation for him, just an opportunity for him to be a part of this historic event. However, I have come to realize that for the week of the inauguration, DC will look like a madhouse with a trillion other tourist, and he will have a miserable time which should come as no surprise since anything without me is bound to fail. Therefore, he will have to plan another trip to the nations capital, with me in tow so he can actually enjoy himself.

Another thing I am dealing with is a psycho neighbor. Rumor has it she was annoyed by the presence of the Obama sign in the yard3 and has begun “creating” issues with us. The latest drama was her calling the police on us because she thought we let her dogs out. Like, really?? DH is  the mouse rescuer! He would protect flies given the opportunity! Obviously she doesn’t know that about him or else she would realize how ridiculous her claim is.

And I still hate my job… for a variety of reasons which I can not get into. I am sure those who know me know why… and it’s getting old and tiresome having to deal with the same shit everyday.4 As I love to say, “I’m over it.” It’s time for me to focus on myself and getting my business off the ground so I can spend my days annoying myself. I really don’t do well where things are unfair and unbalanced… and sadly, that is how most businesses5 seem to function these days.

  1. and all that does is make me want a new damn camera []
  2. alone – without me – since I am not a crowd person []
  3. i can only assume she doesn’t love Obama as much as DH does []
  4. like the fact that I get to work an hour early everyday… and usually have to work through my lunch and don’t even get credit for it. not that i want free time or something… just some acknowledgement of it… and it pisses me off SO much that i am expected to waste gas to drive all over town during lunch because no one can respect the parameters of me sitting there, and not being bothered for an entire hour []
  5. that are not run by me []
