Today wasn't bad for a Monday!!! Felt much more refreshed waking up this morning than I thought I would. 90's music on the way to work always puts me in a good mood. How can you not smile when Blues Traveler is blaring on the radio??
Got a call from Brandon. The folks from Charleston are calling my references. A good sign. Hoping to hear an offer from them this week. Been trying to decide what an acceptable offer is... how bad do I want, no NEED, to get out of this city? I won't undersell myself...
Today I Learned: With Google Maps' framework and a little JavaScript, you can find out what the damage would be if a nuclear bomb went off in your city... (http://www.carloslabs.com/node/20?1). Interesting concept. Scary, though, that someone had the mindset to come up with this out of a very real fear that it could happen.
Had an interesting conversation today regarding religion or lack there of. Decided it's a personal belief and opinion and the idea that people try to force theirs upon others isn't fair or respectful. And the idea that people renounce a friend because they don't believe in the same thing you do is absolutely absurd. Not fair. At all. I've had experience with this lately.
Thought just dawned on me: There was a time when people were considered "good" by default. Has that time past? The Casey Anthony case is a good situation to relate this to. While in the courts, innocent till proven guilty still exists, it quite obviously doesn't in the rest of the world. When people heard Caylee was dead and missing, just about everyone (media and otherwise), automatically assumed it was Casey before they even heard the evidence. Now, after evidence was presented, yes.... I absolutely think she did it. But she was never given the benefit of the doubt at any point. How many times are false accusations of rape made against an individual, it's proven that it was absolutely false, but the individual's name is forever tarnished because the world automatically assumes the man is guilty. Same can be said the other way... how often is a woman blamed of marrying a rich man and when she divorces him, the world assumes it's because she wants his money? When in reality, it becomes proven that he was beating her and selling her out as a sex slave? Just seems like the days of "good men" have gone.... </rant>
Anyways!!! Didn't feel like cooking so I said screw my diet and bought my yearly McDonald's. I say yearly because it only really tastes good to me once a year. LOL. Hope y'all had a good Monday!!! If not, take a look at this funny link to cheer you up a bit!!! http://i.imgur.com/nmXmJ.png
