Sometimes simply making a genuine effort to be friendly lifts me out of the doldrums. It definitely did today. I was really hoping to be sitting at a desk for my shift but I found the interaction with people to be uplifting. Well that was until the stupidity of my employer. Now it looks like I am just going to have to follow through with some plans for improving my situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don\u2019t like struggling and I am way too old for hustle culture. But what am I supposed to do when I am washed up and over the hill? The United States is simply a cruel country. The differences between parties, while stark, don\u2019t really matter when it comes to rugged capitalism. Both sides agree that you either have money or work until you die. Right now things look bleak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So yes, I\u2019m going to make the effort. I\u2019m going to spend money I don\u2019t have to go to an armed security class with the hopes that I could be in a better place financially. It\u2019s either that or begin Uber. I don\u2019t know which makes more sense. I\u2019ll get the armed license. It\u2019s the course of action I\u2019m committed to. All I know is that I\u2019m tired and feel depression creeping back in because I can\u2019t use THC. It was the only thing that kept me from being depressed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
No THC makes the daily effort that much harder; the struggle even more so. Now I just have my blog to get the swirling thoughts out of my head. I\u2019m just waiting for the other shoe to drop. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
