I've always got random thoughts going through my head but sometimes it is hard to congeal them into one cohesive blog. At the same time I don't want to sound too whiny either, as I feel like blogging the most when I'm bothered by stuff.
Right now I'm stressing out over everything in life. Church has me stressed in a way with me having to select the music every Sunday, and also with the merging of 3 area churches that I'm involved in. There's also work that is stessing me out. On top of wanting to punch my coworker to my immediate left in the face almost daily, and on top of the workload, I'm going to be involved in a project where we're standardizing how we use our database program. I'm the person that will be the intermediate person between the folks in my department and the other department that primarily uses the program and IT. I will basically translate layman to geek and back.
That's all fine and dandy, but there are underlying currents of office politics there. Why can't people just shut the fuck up, mind their own business, and just do their jobs?
I'm grateful that I have enough money to do pretty much whatever I want comfortably. I'm not going to be renting a 5 star suite in a hotel with a 9 diamond hooker, but if I want to go buy a CD I buy it. If I want a new video game, I buy it. A slightly expensive dinner and a few rounds of drinks, no problem. I'd love to quit my job and go someplace else but there is no place else to go around here. Moving would be great but I'm sure the money situation would be tight. Life always throws stuff at you but you just have to take a step back and consider all things. Right now all the bullshit does not outweigh any benefits or happiness that I have at the moment. It certainly weighs in on everything, but it does not overshadow anything.
In more happy news, I'm going to be doing a bit of travel over the next few weeks. Going to Pittsburgh to visit my buddy there, Rick and I are going to Botcon, I should be visiting my dad soon, and I'm going to see someone I haven't seen in 3 years soon, hopefully if plans don't fall through. All my travel seems to happen all at once. I like visiting with friends. Makes me feel all happy inside.
