I think your bloggin is profound and hysterically funny, sometimes one or the other, sometimes both simultaneously.<BR/><BR/>whoever it was should be secretly jealous of your talent and your mind.<BR/><BR/>But I understand what you felt. I've had weeks at a time ruined by depression that came up and smacked in the head like a two-by-four out of nowhere... and almost always because I realized what someone else had that "should have been mine". Not that I wanted to take something from them, but I should have it, too. <BR/><BR/>The universe didn't agree for some reason. <BR/><BR/> I still deal with this, feeling cheated, sometimes. But I suppose there are people who might want what I have and be jealous... which would be dumb, because my life is a full of problems, not just fun stuff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5794893825407092443.post-52769648515915378042007-09-13T22:49:00.000-04:002007-09-13T22:49:00.000-04:00Glad you're back and in a better frame of mind.

I found out that an 18-year-old kid, who just got his first job, was earning almost as much per hour as I do.<BR/><BR/>Usually I like my work, and it is very well suited to my particular skill set. The pay leaves much to be desired, though, and I was sulking about being a lowly drone instead of a chief of industry, etc.<BR/><BR/>The kid in question lives in another part of the country, where the cost of living is much higher, so it's really not as much of a cosmic unfairness as it seemed at first.<BR/><BR/>I went for a bike ride after work today and enjoyed the late summer weather...abfhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01228622726560993968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5794893825407092443.post-55067514046059062562007-09-13T21:36:00.000-04:002007-09-13T21:36:00.000-04:00I know I don't comment much but I am also glad you...I know I don't comment much but I am also glad you are continuing to blog.
