So, the marathon's a week away, and I'm excited about the vacation and the touristy stuff I wanna do. My old man's talkin about quittin his job if certain conditions do not change. As a young woman, I don't feel like I should think " If he quits, that'll set him back from school and paying loans, which delays saving for a house, which delays...." It's a little silly... but, that's what I really do think about.
Last night at a ballgame two people I was with got slapped w/ tickets when some plain clothes cops staked us out and started checkin IDs and being dicks. They got mean w/ one guy trying to be smart and tell 'em it's no smoking... It was kinda depressing... until we went on quite a trip around and around w/ a drunk navigator.
I'm thinkin lately about how lucky I am to live somewhere that hasn't seen bloody battle w/ other nations on our own soil in my, or my parent's, lifetimes. This, when most people I talk to bitch about the heat or gas prices. Honestly, WTF?
