it's been a long time......
......did ya miss me?
surely you think, she's not working now why the hell doesn't she blog. no excuse! laziness? depression? shrug..... i guess i am ready now. and without further ado...
this morning i decided instead of going to the gym i would take the mile route i occasionally walk in my neighborhood. these are disturbing things i saw along the way:
dog crap...lot's of dog crap. PEOPLE if you are going to walk your dog carry a bag or AT LEAST let the beastie crap in the grass not on the sidewalk, lest unsuspecting people like me listening to music, pondering the world step in it.
airline booze bottles....thrown out all along the route. really??
beer cans....see above. please drink at home and don't drive.
a used condom and wrapper....i can only hope they were not driving whilst engaging in activities better suited to a non moving vehicle.
a banana peel....at least that one is biodegradable.
a pile of vomit....that a colony of ants were making their own.
everyone running the fricking stop signs...when did red start meaning GO?? does anyone but me still stop at a stop sign?
a piece of foil with burn marks obviously used to smoke heroin, meth, crack or some other drug that you can smoke....this was by the school bus stop!!!
friends, i live in a "nice" neighborhood. i moved from a horrible neighborhood to this "nice" one. homes range from the $250K to $1 million K +!!!! i cringe every january when i write the check for homeowners fees.
to say i was disturbed is an understatement. this is where i live. this is where i will possibly grow old. there are many, many children in this neighborhood. this saddens me.
when i got home i noticed my index finger on my right hand was cut and dripping blood. how the hell did that happen??? i think maybe i cut it on the cap of my water bottle. needless to say i peroxided the hell out of that cut.
and to top it all off my fit bit says i only walked .5 miles. i've driven the route in the car and it is 1 mile roundtrip. damn you fit bit!!! at least i was listening to some good music--val emmich--along the way.
p.s. i guess i need to change to book background? although i still have a book or two's worth of library stories from the pages of my mind.
