for ele #2

when i am at work if i were to pose a question about...well lets just use the age old "what is the meaning of life? why are we here?" or something along those lines-maybe like "what type of solution do you think will work for this recession? which tyoe of approach do you favor?"-something that required some sort of dialog without a real answer most of the people i work with would a)not even get involved because that sort of question involves thinking and they are either a.1)too wrapped up in their lives to think about what goes on around them a.2) not the brightest bulb in the bunch or b)not get involved because the question doesnt have a real answer and no concrete way to get there.

i dont work with a bunch of stupids like i have in other jobs in the past but i do work with quite a few people who are so wrapped up in themselves and their lives they fail to see beyond their bubble. which makes me want to pop it. bad. an shake them and say "HEY YOU!!! THERE IS MORE TO THIS WORLD THAN JUST YOU!!!"

which isnt to say i am any smarter than anyone but i do want to keep learning and keep my brain from atrophying (did i spell that right? i like that word) and drying up into a hunk of rusted grey matter. which would really be reddish matter if it was rusted. right?

but it is bed time. and ths is a weird tangent for which i dont really have the energy. i didnt really follow the thought pattern i had intended but it is late so i will use that as an excuse.

night

  1. firstly.
    who's pictures are you showing in the slide show at the top right corner?
    i saw a funeral. military funeral. ?

    i guess all you can do is still try to learn something from the garden tools that you have to share the space called 'work' with. if nothing else, at the minimum, you learn 'what not to do...' Still, a terribly valuable lesson. And unfortunately, you usually learn that lesson through first hand experience. But in this case, you get to watch from the sidelines. psst. pass the popcorn, let's watch!
