I am an enigma. A perfect right hand middle man living safely supported on the edge. Complicatedly simple or simply complicated, that's for you to decide. I lose the games I play & win the ones I don't. I'm not here to play games. I'm here, there, everywhere. Often I like to feel as if I'm the world. Other times I want to melt into the scenery. I see myself as a familiar stranger standing along the street as life speeds by. I like strangers & love my friends. I laugh when people fall but offer a helping hand. I hate people but love working with the public. The Constitution is wrong, all men are not created equal; they should be. I believe that not everyone has the same opportunities; it's what you do with the ones that lay before you that determine who you become. I like to walk. Running is too fast; but some roses are meant to be seen & not smelled. Time is an illusion created by man. I’ll create it for those who are willing to do the same. Your birthday is important to me & hope mine is to you. I tend to give more than I receive. Respect & appreciation are key. Conversation is a gold mine; knowledge is wealth & power. My intelligence is my most prized possession, don't insult it.

Ham?burger

"No, God appreciates [homosexuality] even more, because he created you in his image. At least that's what I was always taught. And since God is love and God doesn't make mistakes then you must be exactly the way he wants you to be. The way he intended you to be and that goes for every person, every planet, every mountain, every grain of sand, every song, every tear and every faggot. We're all his. He loves us all." ~Queer As Folk

I've just always liked that statement. It's perfect. It can be used to combat so many things and not just religious arguments made against homosexuality but other "defects" as well. It just works.

I worked today it was an ok day. It went by rather quickly. But I made some money and I'm happy with that. There was this one guy, tho, that I must inform you of. This is an actual conversation with a guest.

Me:
Hello and how are you today?
Guest: I'm good. How are you?
Me: I'm great and thank you for asking. May I get you a coke, ice tea or anything while you're looking over the menu?
Guest: A coke.
Me (returning): Have we decided or any questions I can answer?
Guest: This picture of the hamburger looks really good.
Me: Then I would recommend getting that.
Guest: Oh, I can't. I don't eat pork.
Me (confused): Sir? Our burgers don't have pork products in them.
Guest: Oh, so I can order it without the ham?
Me: Sure.

I promise you, he was as serious as anything. Oh I do love stupid people. It kind of reminded me about a time when I was working at Arby's. I was the MOD and was wearing a headset listening in on the drive-thru orders when a guy came thru and demanded that the employee make sure that his meal was to go and reminded her numerous times throughout out the order. Oh goodness. lol.

Almost makes me feel as if I'm going to miss working with the public when I get an actual career... almost.
