On The Road Again...

When you hate your job and the boss is a jerk to EVERYBODY what do you do? Why, you quit of course! And that's just what I did. Now I am starting a job search. Yippee.

As much as I hate searching for jobs, at this point anything would be better than having to feel worried about having a job the next day because of one man's temper tantrum...So wish me luck!

Memories Light The Corner Of My Mind....

"Memory is a selection of images... some elusive, others printed indelibly on the brain" ~ Eve's Bayou

Those who really know me know that my short term memory sucks. I even have been nicknamed as "Short Term" by my wife. I know that my mind has not reached maximum capacity...so why can't I remember anything that just happened?

Unlike some of my friends, I can't remember things by date (Laura). If I were a witness to a murder or robbery...it would be horrible. The robber/murderer would get away. I don't pay attention to my surroundings I guess.

My long term memory seems fine. I can remember smells, sounds, and feelings in my childhood. I can think back to camp and remember the smell of a damp forest, or to Daly City walking to school and hearing a specific song of the birds in the tree, or to a car ride full of tears because I was leaving everything I knew behind.

There are many things that I remember so vividly. I wish I could go back to those times and watch myself, not to change anything but I think I could learn a lot and see things I missed at the time.

What was I talking about? Oh yes, memory...

The brain amazes me. It will block out tramatic memories that you wouldn't be able to handle all at once such as a rape or car accident. But then again it will brings up those memories at random times (post tramatic stress) and keeps them coming...almost like the memory is harrassing you.

In my life I've had good and bad memories, as we all do, but I would not erase a single one...I've learned something from all of my experiences and strongly believe that everything happens for a reason...

But anyway...I am just rambling now...so I will end this here.
