    tonight, i said good-bye to my dwindling second family. four months ago, i met half of my twenty four person family, and reunited with the other half. as i expected, this summer far surpassed last year in terms of loving my job. i got up six days a week, and along with eight other people gathered, caught, and fed one hundred thirty horses, saddled a few of them, and ran the rest back out to pasture. this was my daily routine. all day we would ***** and moan about how much we hated our jobs, ...

  2. Olives: The Black Deception

    by , 09-08-2009 at 08:12 PM (A Little Bit of Everything)
    As a child it was told many a time around the holidays about how a large bowl of olives was placed in front of me as preparation for Thanksgiving dinner went on- a bowl fit to feed a dozen. A few minutes later the bowl was mysteriously empty.

    To say the least I was always very opinionated, and when I was younger my parents would find it quite frustrating. There had been more than one occasion in which I would be out shopping and I would pick up some shirt and say in a less then discreet voice. "Look out hideous this is" and she would always be like you know other people here could have been thinking about buying that, and thus I would reply "Why should they care what I think of the shirt? If they didn't like what I was ...
