Why is it when people act like an ass and get called on it, do they say "lighten up", instead of "whoops, sorry, I didn't mean to give offense."
Has it ever occurred to them that this is exactly what creepy sexual harassers and rape-culture drones say? Do they have a fucking clue what scum is floating on the top of their pond?
Wow. I didn't realize how much that bothers me until I started writing about it here.

Yes, you told us you're an engineer in some of your other topics too. It wasn't relevant then either.

Can you really be 'on the ball' for all the sales and still miss out? I guess I'm either lucky or skeptical. Or both.

Good one, Crosby. The bottle you used is actually for "Obsession". I'm guessing that obsession is the first step, followed by 'Desperation'.

Acceptance is good. Radical acceptance allows us to accept who we are and where we're at whenever we are in the progression of LIFE.mgb327 wrote:Natural progression, the third step..."acceptance". That will be achieved when WE are all on the Playa and they are not.
And it should take place anywhere, playa or not. There is no pride involved, only inner peace.
And that's my philosophical $.02 for the day. Thanks for bringing it up, mgb327.

What?? You know things are getting tight when veterinarians can't even get tickets... But on a positive note, your area is teaming with livestock and animals needing quality health care. You should be able to get that ticket no problem... but it won't be this year, damn it...
Sooner or later, it will get real strange...
