Fire.

Lately, been super excited for life. Never have felt like this before. Can honestly say that it is the best feeling in the world. I honestly feel like nothing can stop me right now. I have never had a more clear view on what I want. The best way I can describe it is feeling, almost giddy 24 hours a day. Every weekend I have been hiking in the mountains, being out in nature, trying to make sure that I enjoy every single day I am alive. For someone who has been depressed my entire life, and been discouraged with things that happen to me, its refreshing. I want it all. And I am going to get it.

Woo! LIFE! YEA!

I need to go buy some new shoes. Recently bought some running shoes. Those have helped tremendously in my exercising. Cardio man. It works. Need new jeans as well. My sevens, as seen a few posts back, have been deemed: un-wearable. Is that a word? Let me know.

Seriously....is Lady Gaga from the future? Where does she get these outfits?


















Everyone who deals with her appearance must come from the future. Her designer, make-up artist, hair stylist.......plastic surgeon?
Yep....the future.

Here is one thing I was thinking about when I was at Walmart. There are thousands of Walmarts in the country. Now recently at the one I currently shop at, they have cut back their staff significantly. I think they laid off around 30 employees. That's a huge number when it comes to Walmart. When it's constantly busy and out of the 29 check out lanes they have only 5 open usually. This does not include self-check out. But with as much as we rely on Walmart for our needs and all the statistics that have been out there about Walmart being such a huge chunk of our economy that "if they shut down we would go into a recession" and so forth. Here's my question. What if Walmart (who are more tight with their wallet than George Costanza) just sucked it up, and hired 30 MORE people instead of laying off 30. If every store did that, think about how many people in the country would be getting jobs. More jobs equal more people spending money. More people spending money means the United States is no longer in a recession. I know this wouldn't solve all the problems. Like all the morons on Wall Street and all the bankers who gave out bad loans. But still, do you think it would make a difference? Tell me what you think.

Seriously....cannot wait for the blink-182 tour. But come on.....they're touring with Weezer. Don't get me wrong, old Weezer is tight. New Weezer can suck it. But they should have done a tour their fans would appreciate more.
But whatever, I'm just glad they're back. It's also rad to have Mark update a lot about practicing and such. Mainly because we fans did not have it before. I remember on their last album they had the webcam playing constantly in the studio, and then the video updates.
I think they were probably one of the first bands to do that. Now bands do it all the time. But I guess the comforting thing about Mark's Twitter updates is that, he comes off just as excited as we are. Yes Mark, we're excited. Post more pictures please. More shenanigans? I don't care. *sigh* I love blink-182.

Anywho, lunch break is over....back to the grind. (yes...my lunch break today was from 4:30pm to 5:30pm...a little messed up? Oh yes.) (Think I could say "seriously"....one more time?)
