Today.

I don't know if I like Blogspot.

You can't search other blogs, you have to hit the "next blog" button. And the only blogs that button takes me to are sewing blogs, foreign blogs, stamp collecting blogs, and obnoxious, overly Christian blogs. Blogspot claims that the interests you put in on your profile will enable them to find similar blogs for you, but I just don't buy it. I never mentioned sewing or stamp collecting, and if putting "Christianity" in my interests leads to the nonsense I've seen, then I'm taking it off, because that's not AT ALL what I mean when I say that I'm interested in Christianity.

I have found a few worthwhile blogs, though. Today I came across the blog of a mother who lost her daughter just a few days after she was born. My heart just ached for her, but not because I know what she's going through. I can't imagine it, and that's the point - the depth of such a horrible feeling must be staggering. The closest thing to a child that I have is my goddaughter, and if anything ever happened to her, my world would dissolve. I can't imagine it being my own flesh and blood, and not being able to do a thing about it.

I also have found a few blogs that are journal-esque, I guess kind of like mine. I like reading about other people, even though I don't know them. Maybe that's weird, but whatever, I'll take it, since I knowmaybe two people that keep blogs. I think the difference between me and the "journal-esque" blogs is that I write more about what's on my mind and let that speak for itself, and not so much about what I do from day to day. My life really isn't that exciting. I work, watch TV with my boyfriend, eat, and sometimes I sleep. That really is my life, until school comes around... Then I go to school, study my ass off, eat, and fall asleep in front of the TV while my boyfriend watches. Although, I will be working every other weekend this school year...ARE YOU EXCITED YET??!

Ugh, work. It's complicated. I am thankful for my job, and I've gotten really good at it over the three years I've been there (holy cow, THREE YEARS...?). I really like the people that I work with, too. My bosses are some of the best men I know, and I have many good conversations with my fellow associates (except when I'm at the Minnetonka store, but we don't talk about that). But the CUSTOMERS - bahhhhh. It's not all of the customers, or even a majority of them...but there are a select few that just ruin your whole day. I've written about it on my Facebook page, so I'm not going to write about it again, but WOW...people can really be soulless sometimes. It makes you wonder how they got that way, and how you can avoid it.

Let's see, something exciting...my aunt Coleen and my cousin Nick are in town from Pittsburgh! I'm looking forward to chillin with them this evening and during my day off tomorrow. Fingers are crossed for a trip to the State Fair! :)


Until next time...
