I am a the itsy bitsy spider...

What a predicament
Did you ever think it was possible for person to 1) Put their foot into their mouth ankle deep and 2) Not even REALIZE it? Well, believe you me, it IS possible. I have witnessed it on several occasions in recent history. It's just so funny, it's almost ridiculous...no it IS ridiculous. I'm sure I've done it before and I can only kick my own ass for that...but some people are just completely oblivious and don't realize how big a hole they're digging until they drown in their own crap. Cheers to obliviosity(and if you don't know that I already KNOW this ain't no word, then apparently, you don't know me...he he he)!

Just some thoughts...
My family has been driving me nuts lately...and again, as always I am playing the referree. I wonder sometimes if the only reason why I am in the MIDDLE of it and not on either side is because I'm not there...I guess that's good in a way, it gives me a sort of objectivity in all of these happenings. But it's ridiculous sometimes people's inability to or complete reluctance to COMMUNICATE. It's chlidish and I think you can only say it a few times before you go completely bonkers...just realize you've done what you can do and leave the rest to them....sadly enough, some people are better off apart...because of their unwillingness to bring matters to resolve.

The elections this past week were a complete joke. Lowest voter turnout in recent history(and maybe even history, but that matter is somewhat relative). People not liking either candidate, the method in which the two candidates campaigned(pretty much a complete smear campaign for both parties). People voting because they want to vote AGAINST someone...regardless of who that person may be. Democracy to an outsider must look like a complete fuckin joke. And I emphasize this most on the voter turnout...a RECORD LOW?!?!? People constantly have something to say and complain about...but they do nothing about it...they don't come out and vote...they don't make their voices heard...and i know there are tons of obstacles but nothing comes that easy...and if you don't speak, then let silence be your death. Mind you, I'm no flag waving, hand on my heart, PATRIOTISM RULES type of person, but I am a person that takes responsibility for my actions and thoughts...I take action on things which I believe need action to be taken.

I have been quite confused on many things lately. A little stressed no doubt, working in a new place can get quite daunting and the slope of the learning curve is a doozie...but other than that...I think just life has been confusing me lately. I mean, there was a time in my life when I had absolutely no idea about what I wanted and where I was headed...and things happened. Now that I feel I am really steering in the right direction and that I am getting a better grasp on what's good for me and what I want...nothing. Abyss... Isn't it ironic? You don't know what you want, and there's a million things infront of you to choose from. You know what you want, and it's not there?
