$$$$$
I *finally* got paid! wh00t!! However...after putting most of my check into a new savings account, getting my car wash, buying some desperatly-needed insoles for my feet, paying back my mom and sister.....I'm down to about thirty bucks.
Such is life, neh? At least I can get some new comic books.
And now, a bit of extistentialism, wrapped into a gaming metaphor.
Oftentimes in a card game, after the conclusion of a match, the loosing player will pick up the next card on his/her deck, to see what wouldhave been drawn. The lament always is, "If I'd been able to draw this, I would have won!"
I don't do that, and niether should you, for the simple reason that you *didn't* draw that, and you lost. Instead oif focussing on the "what if's" and "if only's", people should focus on how to do better the next time.
Okay, metaphor over. I need to go to work. ^^;
Thought of the moment: I hope Jams is the manager-on-duty, so I get sent to the register again.
Quote of the moment: "Gutentaug!"
Song of the moment:
"Something So Strong", Crowded House
Love can make you weep
Can make you run for cover
Roots that spread so deep
Bring life to frozen ground
Something so strong
Could carry us away
Something so strong
Could carry us today
Turning in my sleep
Love can leave you cold
A taste of jealousy
Is like a lust for gold
Something so strong
Could carry us away
Something so strong
Could carry us today
I've been
Feeling so much older
Frame me
And hang me on the wall
I've seen
You fall into the same trap
This thing
Is happening to us all
Something so strong
Could carry us away
Something so strong
Could carry us today
Somthing so strong
