Been meaning to add something to this space but...lately when I log on to the computer and contemplate what to post or what to say, it's as if my thoughts and ideas are constipated in my mind. I have a lot I could share but when I try...I can't produce anything that makes sense. And even if I did have the words or motivation, airing one's thoughts on the internet isn't always a good idea. A thing often realized after the fact. Probably something I've done too much here as people might see it as a goddamn amusement park.
The past couple of weeks have had me dealing with a bunch of shit -- some annoying, some frivolous and amusing, some heavy emotional content in both my personal and professional life. At least things are never boring...
And this week, in particular? Super annoying. The kind of week where I feel like everyone is a fucking twat. The stupidity and arrogance of some folk just baffle me. I suppose it shouldn't, though. Most people in this world aren't very smart. Call me a pessimist sometimes. I'm a New Yorker. What.
However, I've been happy and sad this summer... Mostly happy and busy, though. So I suppose that's a good thing.
Not looking forward to whatever winter weather may be in store for us. I'm a summer kind of gal, if you didn't know. And something about the cold and shorter daylight hours often brings me down.
For now, I'll enjoy these sunsets before it'll be too cold outside for me to watch them by the water.
I like the heat this radiates. Shimmering with heat. This summer was pretty mild considering. And it's still stinkin' hot so it feels summer. Hope your weekend is wonderful. Sorry for being such a...;-) Fav!
This isn't the first time you've invoked the "Ms. T - Amusement Park" metaphor. The last time, you left me like a disappointed little boy at the turnstile of the roller coaster, failing to be 'this tall' in order to ride.
But it's OK. I'll just be over here waiting to ride the Tilt-A-Whirl.
And I love your term "fucking twat." I just can't use it except as a very rare quote because it might otherwise slip my lips while dealing with the legion of "FTs" that I encounter daily who need my skills and expertise but still behave like FTs. They nearly make me leave this job and get back into an ambulance where I get puked on, because it's a place where people need me and gratefully accept what I can do for them. And then I realize that I earn a boatload more money to not get puked on. So I deal with the FTs.
@timerskine tilt-a-whirl will make you hurl. To be honest, I think that kinda makes me feel like I'm here for amusement... And not in a good more so demeaning kinda way.
Lovely sunset.
@zosimasy thanks, Charles :)
