Change is here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, where do I start? as I woke up this morning the day after election day, I feel drained. I feel drained in a good way. I feel as though I have awaken to a "Do Over", by this I mean that as an American who happens to be black, I really feel that anything is possible in this country. I love America! Born and raised in this country. I have served my country by deploying to Bosnia and I have served my country through military service for nine years , GO ARMY !!!!!!!. I have seen parts of the world that no American will ever get to see, and for that I am grateful. I have received a college education that I earned by paying for it with my blood, sweat and tears that I have shed as a soldier. I re-enlisted for my Countries Military a total of 3 times. There are people in America that would think that they are more entitled to Life, liberty & The Pursuit Of Happiness before I, only based on the color of their skin. There are people in this country who no matter what my credentials are, have seen me as inferior. But as I woke up this morning on 05 Nov 2008, To a world that has elected Barrack Obama as the 44th President, words escape me. I would like to say thank-you to all those who have decided to make a stand in this country and prove to the world that Americans and voting go together like"peas & Carrots", "Ham & Eggs" or the ever classic "PB & J". Thank-you for believing in the process and like a beacon in the night, shining your light of hope & unification , yes we can! I feel at this moment in life, I can look my nieces and nephews in the eye and and tell them with the utmost sincerity that they are the future and that they can really be whatever they want to be! I am not sure that I had believed this entirely until now. "I am an American, fighting in the forces which guard our Country and way of Life, I am prepared to give my life in it's Defense". I have always meant this, when I have had to recite this during my active duty days, it still gives me goosebumps. I really, truly believe that we have finally come to the moment in our evolution that we are all on the same leveled playing field, I really feel like I have been acknowledged at this moment in time. Hooray!! thank you America, thank you Obama for " the Audacity of Hope".

Bible Study or just the Cliff Notes!!!!!

This Jesus chick in my office is leaving. Hallelujah!!!! I am so glad this polished turd is gone. Well, she will be leaving Friday, and I am tickled pink. I dislike this woman so much I am willing to call her a cunt! and it even made me wince just writing the word. But as I have mentioned in a previous post regarding this woman, she is the very reason that society as a whole cannot get past trivial differences in our society as we know it. I am here to post about a completely different topic , but be patient while I take you on a brief tangent. This woman visually is a Jabba the Hut like creature, with a relaxed "hair do" and a very false sense of superiority. For some reason this church lady feels that she is the only accurate representation of what honesty, integrity, morals and good ole "can do" attitude is. Therefore, Jabba Knows best. I think it is people like her that make the rest of society so frustrated with getting to know your neighbor, or a co-worker, why? Because, she is the type of person that you must have the same opinion, views and beliefs to get along with her. Jabba's hair stylist is a gay man, but all day at work this woman makes comments about people who may stereotypically appear to be gay. Jabba says things like "I wonder if he has a little sugar in his tank?" or "I thinks he's a bit sweet!" and to add insult to injury this woman rounds off the her remarks with a "you don't hate the person, but you hate the sin"!!! Holy Shiz!! what the hell happened to "love thy Neighbor" or judging people unless ye be judged" or something to that effect. Anyhoo, What I really wanted to blog about was about an incident that involved Jabba. We were all sitting around the lunch trough, I mean table and we were talking politics. So ,I started to talk about a particular candidate and all of the sudden Jabba interrupts me and says "can we not talk about politics? I am trying to eat my lunch". Well !!! I was livid, everyday Jabba comes to the office and gives us an earful of un- wanted info about her beliefs, her candidate of choice, her values and the minute she hears a contrast to what she deems as correct, she has a mini meltdown and then and only then is it not a good idea to have certain conversations in the work place! This from the woman who made the comment about another employee as "Having a little sugar in his tank". What a CUNT!!

The Re -Animator

There is this guy in my office that I am so disgusted by. I mean I absolutely cannot stand this guy. It seems that everytime I state a fact related to me , this creepzoid in my office re-ask's me the question as if I am going to change my mind! For example, today a diffrent co worker in the office asked me what I was having for lunch? and I replied "some chicken that I baked a couple of days ago!" and the creep guy Say's "a couple of days ago huh?" Yeah Douche! that's what I said a couple of days ago!! A couple of other times this creepy guy has asked (re asked!!) me other questions like " you cant go without your husband huh? " a salad Huh?" "you going camping again huh?" WTF????????????? "that's what I said beeotch!!! I don't get why this guy gives a crap about what the heck I do, this dude is so weird?? He is the kind of guy you could look at and tell that his breath smells! And it does!! I also heard from a very reliable source that he was at an all you can eat buffet with a woman who was not his wife! After work hours!!!! What a sleaze ball!!!

Caste

Everyone is in a Caste System! Like it or Not we just are. What I find interesting are those in life who are in the lower levels of the Cast System, I am not speaking of the hard working blue collar workers that keep America Going! I mean the jobless, homeless, shiftless,dreamless,hopeless,tasteless,gutless people in America fully capable of doing and who are content with not having, believe it or not there are millions of these people among us who do not work hard for the American Dream of financial security , the house, vacations etc etc and as hard as we work, we must pay for these people who do not have the will, you know why!! Handouts!!!! as long as America is willing to handout ,shell out and payout to the lazy! these dead eyed dead souls will continue to take and take. remember how Immigrants would pour through Ellis Island with "the dream" work 5 jobs and own their own business? why don't Americans today have that same belief? Handouts, people are to good to work for what they want so instead these people would rather accept mediocrity and get buy on rations and dreams only worth a pile of dust

Jesus,Mother, Mary N Joseph

There is this woman at my job who is a total holy roller. What I don't like about here is that she doesn't really make me feel that she is a woman who walks in the word of God! First things First I do not condone or support talking about religion in the first place, secondly this woman is just opposite (behavior) of what the word of God is suppose to be. This woman is a total antagonist when it come to another co-worker in my office, she obviously hates this guy to his core and she constantly is having this passive aggressive dialogue with the other co-worker, only he does not know it. This "Jesus Lady" always looks for an opportunity to belittle this guy, say slick things about him on the sly and all the time as she is talking about this guy behind his back, she will remember that she was just talking about something religious and say "lord Forgive Me" or "the Lord will get me right"!! what a load of sh_ _!!!! This woman is the Anti Jesus!! The Guy she is talking about is not Perfect by no stretch of the imagination, but in the workplace we all have issues with one another on some level, but I think that's the moment that you need to be an adult and keep some of the ideas and belief's that you have about another person to your self. I blog about how I fell because it is my thoughts only! I don't put a name with my rants! I always am accommodating to the people that I work with and they have the right to come to work in a stress free environment and not be tormented by my personal thoughts or beliefs. The Jesus Lady does not do this! she feels that he opinion is widely accepted and blurts her ideas upon her coworkers like a Vulture regurgitating something foul down our throats!! like it or not!! I definitely believe certain things about people that i work with!! but you know what?? They would never know how I feel because no matter how strange I think people are, rude, crude or parasitic I will always treat people with respect ! but I'll blog about the rest!!!

Happy Campers

My Husband and I are campers! Yes I said Campers! We have a travel trailer and we love to go Camping!!! But!!! we are not your average camper by a long shot. I have noticed that Campers are professionals at camping and also camping is such a weird culture in it's own right. My Husband and I were at a a beautiful campsite for the Memorial Day weekend and it was great. When we camp, we go hiking, fishing, sightseeing and long car rides. My point is that we go and get full appreciation of our surroundings and take every opportunity to experience something new, learn something and relax in nature at the same time. And then there are "The Others".These are Campers who for whatever reason come to campsites to do nothing!!!! These "others" haul their entire family and goods for hours on the highway and then spend the next four days gelatating in front of their RV all day long, get Drunk and loud at night and do it all over the next day. There is also the the "Golf Carters" these people refuse to walk around the camp sight!! I have even witnessed people walk their dog from a moving golf cart! It just seems weird too me that campgrounds attract so many people that are Drunk, glutinous,lazy,fat,obnoxious and listless. Why would people travel for so many miles to be in the center of beauty but do nothing but sit in lawn chairs padded with large assess and eat super sized meals and drink the entire time! Don't get me wrong, my husband and I like a good Drink and a great meal, But it seems that these "others" do nothing. I could stay home and do what these campers do from miles around! Just weird. There were some cool things like some old geezer brought his karaoke machine and he sang country music for the whole campground, then there are the campers who are just loud and rude, the campers three trailers away were this way! This was the type of guy who was not only massive in size but in ego as well, this guy wasn't attractive at all but spoke loud, drank loud! woke up early only to be loud and seemed as if he needed the entire camp to know of his presence, this was the type of guy you would dread as a neighbor"I could see the used furniture on the lawn now"!!!!

A Chicken In Every Pot

I am at work and I do not like to share! I don't mind sharing cake or something related to Calories ! But I do not like to share my work!!!! There are a couple of new employees at my job that I love and unfortunately there is not enough work to go around! Don't get me wrong, I don't want so much work that I would be overwhelmed, but I am definitely territorial about what is mine. I feel like I am being violated as if someone has put their hand onto my plate without asking. I believe in survival of the fittest and I feel these people are not fit to do my work. I guess in an office the goal is to share work to meet a common goal, but I don't know how to share responsibilities and I am not sure If I want to do so. I feel like these new employees are like baby Parana snapping up every bit of work in the office. I refuse to do busy work!! You know the crap that no one wants to do or that they think is beneath their skill set. I am so overprotective because when I first started my job, I was forced to have to bring my "A Game" because my boss was on medical leave and I was only 3 weeks into the new job, It was my baby and I felt very useful. There were days when I was at my Witt's end but I still got the job done. I felt needed, I no longer feel needed. I could practically screw off the whole entire day and no one would noticed that I wasted the governments money by not doing crap. To some this would be the Ideal job for the uninspired but this is the case. We are in a new program called NSPS and I have been converted over from a GS position to a what they like to refer to as a "pay band". I am starting to feel a bit of jealousy and resentment towards the new staff because I seem to be a bit Idle these days. I am a competitive person by nature but not so consumed with the spirit of competition that I willing to sacrifice My quality time but enough to want to see others fail
