Well I started back at work this week and yes it was quite hard to get going again. First night out of the box Sunday their were a lot more layoffs to deal with and as I said before this kind of thing just brings one down. After that I learned that now I will be answering calls from our Canada office. Great, here I'am in OKC taking calls from another country. Then the final blow came when I learned that I will have to work the 4th. All of this combined just has made for a very long and tiring week with 2 days still to go.
Changing gears a bit, I use to just love to read newspapers and have done so since I was only 5 years old and started reading the sports pages everyday. These days the news just seems to depress me to no end. Oil spills, people losing jobs, lying politicians, stupid laws being passed, a lady who has no skills being put on the highest court of the land, on and on with no end in sight. I use to read the daily news for fun and enjoyment and to keep up with world events. Not much enjoyment these days! Even the sports world brings me down with all the drugs, lawsuits, cheating and pampering treatment that these players get these days. Still with all that being said I'am still getting excited about the upcoming football season as I always do this time of year. I hope that my feelings never change on this but if the NFL strikes next year as they say may happen... well that may end my enjoyment on that front too.
To combat all this I have been thinking about making plans for upcoming trips to Las Vegas and playing some videopoker and taking in some shows and real enjoyment. I'm working on a possible 3 trips in a row kind of thing that I hope comes together soon. No matter how bad things can get in the world, a upcoming LV trip always brightens my mood.
Well that is it for today from the US Heartland. Hope everyone has a great day and stay positive out there.
