The good the bad and the ugly

THE GOOD
Yesterday the weather was SO amazing i had to go outside and do something. My friend Kathryn is a member of the old wooden boat club (or something like that) on south lake union and a group of us were going to go sailing. The sailboats were all checked out for the entire day very early in the morning so we decided to go rowing on lake union instead. Now for some reason Kathryn decided to jump in her boat and take off, and me and Dave were there kinda scratching our heads. We didn't know if she had checked out one boat or two, and just then a guy who was working on a boat next to where we were standing asked if we were planning on using that one. "Sure" i said. He handed us the oars and without any other questions (or instructions) we left. 2 1/2 hours on the lake in the boat...it was great....besides the whole sorta taking it without checking it out or anything. We returned it in pristine shape, so all was well. That evening i joined half of seattle at Alki to watch the sunset. It was great.

THE BAD
Last week I was really sick and had an awful week. Couldn't concentrate, canceled all my plans besides sleep and work. At the end of the week my boss called me into her office and told me that my work isn't so hard that being sick should slow me down. She proceeded to insinuate that I'm not needed but she will give me a second chance. As a result I canceled my plans saturday and worked 11 hours and 3 hours sunday instead. Somehow i don't think it's going to be enough.

THE UGLY
It doesn't look like work will ever lighten up. I will continue to work to keep my job. However the future looks grim. I had to quit Young Life and I have more food in my cubicle than my cupboards at home. How I find these jobs, I don't know. I'm just happy I'm one of the few that still has a job....but the question lingers...."This is my life.....is this how I want to life it?"
