Terrible
That’s the word that describes my day right now. I’m supposed to be working on my composition paper, but I’m going to be up for a while doing that and I need to rant about a few things. Usually I try to maintain a positive outlook on things. After all, there are a whole lot of people…

Giant Story!
Here’s an interesting work story from this past Tuesday I had forgotten when I tried to write it down. I was on one of the express lanes. Even though both lanes were open there were still two huge lines of customers. Looking up in desperation I noticed two people from the old barn where I used to…

Cabbage Patch Sweethearts

Separation
Standing in the kitchen Looking at the broken glass. Thinking about my living And the time we argued last. The pieces are transparent Blending right in with the floor.

/This Being Human Business
When did I get asked if I wanted to have the wonderful human ability to screw things up? Why do I do the things I don’t want to do and forget the things I wanted to to do? How is it that I can only hurt the people I love? It’s called being human and it’s incredibly…
