The Hunt Begins

  Well, I've been job hunting now for the past couple of weeks.  Nah, I'm kiddin ya.  I've been spending time with my precious angel.  She makes my life whole.  Anyways, I'm hunting for a job now and I may have already found one.  A friend will see about recommending me to work at a "Mental Healthcare Home" or something like that....loony-bin is what I heard, except it's not an asylum.  It's more like a nursing home for crazy folks, old and young.  I don't mind though because I've had plenty experience with mental illness myself to last a lifetime.  Perhaps I'll do some good there, assuming I do get the position.

   In other news, I'd just like to say that I felt some serious embarrassment last night.  I was coming home late and had to stop at a gas station to put in $5--that's why I need the job, don't be judgin'--and saw this big ol' woman in flip flops *bleeds from eyes*, a black skirt and blue shirt rolling like a blueberry across the parking lot calling to some dogs.  I try to ignore it and go pay for the gas, but when I come out, the scene is even more horrifying.  She's now talking to some fat mother fucker in shorts and nothing else.  I threw up a bit in my mouth.  I don't know what was on his mind that told him it was acceptable to stand barefoot and shirtless in a dirty gas station parking lot.  He had a beat-up truck in the bed of which his dogs were sitting happily.  And he was hairy.  Austin Powers hairy.  If he were gay, he'd be labeled a Bear.

  I'd like to say that I don't judge fat people, because it may seem like I do from the earlier statements, but I've been down that road myself and know how it is.  It's when fat people think it's fine to emphasize their fat and make themselves look even nastier than they could be.  Besides, even if he weren't fat it'd still be nasty.  Mostly naked in public isn't attractive in my book, no matter what gender or level of fitness.  Fortunately, most people around my area aren't like that, but the few who are make me feel very embarrassed to live here.  I felt annoyed that he would help perpetuate the stereotype of the South--whether he meant to or not.

             I don't have a witty closing for the post, so I leave you with this seal of approval.
