Left Field
So I started a cafepress store... silly stuff mostly but I just added a ton of "stuff" here's the link http://www.cafepress.com/jensubmarine
so today I feel out in left field... I'm just kinda out of it today. On the plus side, I got my period which means no babies in the next 9 months for us! woohoo! Even though I want to be a mother in the near future, having a husband loose his job really puts a damper on the thought. So I really wasn't sure, since I know it was a possiblity that we could but since I'm 8 days late, I ovulated late and so by the time I ovulated we were using condoms... but 8 days ago I didn't know when I Oed so I was kinda nervous... never before in my life, except the first time I got my period (i was almost 20yrs old!), was I so happy to feel cramps! And let me tell you I FELT them! OH my god I thought I was going to hurl so many times today, the pain was horrible and a few times I wish I was pregnant so I don't have to experience that pain! This coming from the women who wants to have a natural no drugs birth! LOL Not a quiet one, don't think I'm a science freak like TomKat... I plan on yelling and screaming and grunting but I'm going to try not to swear to much but I really want to be drug free.... I really feel strongly about this.
So at work, I'm only half here today... I sometimes wish I didn't have to work, I get bored with work... this isn't what I want to do for a living, I enjoy the people I work with for the most part. But I don't have a drive to do anything here. There is no advancement in this job for someone of the female race. There is one women in a mangement postion and I truely believe they feel like they have met thier quota and have no plans of ever advancing another women. That makes me loose my joy and drive for this job. It is truely said at how badly they fill a quota in this world... we have ONE black women, ONE Hispanic man, ONE Asian descent Man and One Black man in a supervisors postion... the rest of us smucks are white. That's it... it's like they fill their quota and that's it, no one can say they are racist or anything... and they don't fire anyone who "fills their quota" even if they do such a horrible job that the person needs to and should be fired. They just allow them to screw things up to the point of no return and beyond.
And now to add a little happiness to my post... here is one of my favorite shots from Disney World.

I hated being in the rat race too... i think most work places are very much the same in that way. They fill their quota and that's it.
Ahh.. what a photo for sore eyes! I was just there a few weeks ago and I miss it SO MUCH. I'd live there if I could! I am very much the ideal Disney World/Epcot Employee personality. I'd LOVE to work at Epcot!
