How Veddy Odd

Although I deleted all of the entries to my old blog - I had one last thought I wanted to put out there....just in case anyone should stop by. But when I went to log in it told me that the user name did not exist! Not my cookies setting because I can get into this one just fine. Veddy EEnterestink!

Frustrated. Frustrated by people with no common sense. Why must they argue? Why is it so difficult for them to think simplistically and be able to see what's right in front of their face? Why do they have to complicate things with double talk and bureacratic mumbo jumbo? Why can't they just answer the question that you ask instead of answering the one they imagined in their heads as they were driving to work? If you ask "does A come before B?", they respond "yes Springfield is the capital of Illinois." HUH?

I've decided I'm having a mid-life crisis. Here are the clues.

• I wonder to myself..."is this all there is?" Is it all about getting up to go to work. Going to work to earn money. Earning money to pay bills. Paying bills to have food on the table and somewhere to live. Having food on the table and somewhere to live to make it possible for you to sleep so you can get up and go to work??? I finally understand what is meant by "it's a rat race."
• I was driving along and listening to WGN Chicago (the girls) and they started talking about mid-life crises and having people call in to say if they had one, what constituted one, what they did about it. I heard myself call in several times.
• I went into a public bathroom and there was a book laying there that was all about when you start to think "is this all there is?"
• My daughter said I wasn't old because I'm only in my 30's. I asked what will I be in my forties? She replied, "middle aged."

Sigh...
