things i repeatedly ask myself

- where the eff did spring go??? it's like every single year i see it as going from 30* directly to 100*. i also do this with fall.
- how did my dogs get so cute? this is because i am lame :)
- why am i so tired? ironically, i am mostly only tired when i have to do something i don't want to do. i.e. dishes, laundry, etc.
- am i nuts? this mostly pertains to work because sometimes things happen that are outside my realm of comprehension.
- why are the squirrels constantly on the porch? this is clearly because of the full bird feeder i also keep there but yet, i keep asking why?

i also ask myself things like, do you really need to eat that? is it really worth arguing over? and do you really want to go to jail for punching that person? the answer to all of these is always, NO but whether or not i listen to my wise inner voice is another story. i am proud to say that i have not ever gone to jail for punching someone so obviously even i have a line that cannot be crossed. sometimes being able to outwit someone with words is more satisfying, anyhow. the problem comes when you are dealing with a complete looney because they are too out of it to know that you have made a stellar argument and concede the point. this happens when you deal with the following personalities; delusional, narcissist (think people in positions of power), and of course actual rubber room inhabitants.

the fact that there are people out there in positions of power that have no business being in them is concerning. i do not think that community organizers are qualified to be president. it is also clear that he lacks as a leader because of his unwillingness to give anyone else credit for anything. this is a blatant scream of insecurity. i deal with one of these people on a daily basis and it is exhausting because either i play along or i revolt and risk my well being. life lessons are hard to learn but what doesn't kill us makes us stronger, right?
