It's a Wonderful Life...

Mood: happy

I really enjoy the work that I do, at times it maybe pretty stressful and at times it maybe frustrating, but I do enjoy working there and with most of the people that I work with. Most people usually hold back, that's because they are not sure of the new person, being cautious, like animals in the animal kingdom.

I guess the main reason that I enjoy working there is because I now have enough money (I make enough for a single person to live pretty comfortably) and to be able to buy the things that I want and to be able to pay for the things that I need. Oh sure, there are times that I wished that I was making more money, but then I realize that I don't need it that bad and more than likely it can wait and may go down in price.

I do have to admit though, currently I am at odds with the Minneapolis Police Reserve, mostly because the person that the bestowed rank unto has a power trip going and it seems as though the top brass don't care. They do complain that we don't have enough officers in the ranks, but when it comes to retention, they either are ignorant or clueless as to why they keep losing people. I was pretty upset and almost yelling at my superior, but he understood the reason behind my anger and feels somewhat the same way. Not only that, but my Lt., to whom I suggested for that rank is a weak spine turd. When it comes to confrontation and or standing up for the people under his command, he avoids the situation.

Well, enough of that. The local supermarket (Cub Foods) started increasing their ethnic foods section and started carrying items that I would normally have to travel about 30 minutes to and shop. Now I can pick up some items and for the rest I'll still have to go to the specialty market to get items that Cub Foods doesn't carry. By the way, for those of you that don't live in Minnesota, Cub Foods is a really huge supermarket (for those of you in Hawaii, think Sack N Save in Waipahu) and imagine it about twice that size.

Well, I'll be working on my personal website to update the content and appearance, not only that, but also putting up new pictures of my life here in Minnesota as well as new pictures of Samantha. I first adopted (or was it the other way around) her, she was approximately 11 - 12 months old, that was back in 1996 so she's currently approximately 10 years old. For a cat her age, she still thinks she's a kitten and still plays like a kitten. I have to mention a really cute/funny story about Samantha... One morning as I was sleeping, I was laying on my side, clutching my pillow. Samantha decided she wanted attention and that it was time for me to wake up, so she butted her head up against my face and when that didn't work, she tapped my nose with her paw a couple of times, now normally I would've been a little upset, but then I realized what she did and doing and couldn't help but laugh... That made for a great way to start my day.

Well, anyway, I have to get up early to catch the bus into work so I gotta get some sleep. I'll add a new entry tomorrow. Hope that you'll tune in then, till then, stay safe and well!
