I don’t really know what the wise men and women have to say about things that go wrong in civilization. Does a yogi in Tibet have to worry that he met his productivity numbers that are arbitrarily selected? Does he have to deal with the fact that his effing paperclips tangle? No. Because he’s a yogi. He sits on his zen pouffe and has no bills, and lives on prana and yak’s milk. He does not have to deal with effing “TPS” reports. (Thank you Office Space.)

I am not a yogi. Today, the zen I have is allowing myself to feel how I feel without judging it. So, I’ll say this. Today I wish I was Darth Vader, or any Darth really, they were all a bunch of assholes who knew how to get things done in the way that dictators everywhere do. They made it somebody else’s problem. (SEP) Thank you Mr. Adams.

My problem is that right now, I am the someone else. I actually don’t even want to be a dictator to others, I just want to be my own dictator. I have been to 7 years of university. I am getting too old, too skeptical, and too something-or-the-other to be the person that deals with SEP.

I hate working for the man right now, even though the man pays me well, because working for the man means you are expendable. I have watched 3 co-workers get fired in as many months. It’s been kind of like watching Darth do that slow squeeze thing to people’s necks without touching them.

So, am I envious of the power to do that? I suppose, because I think I would put it to better use. But, that’s the problem with people-we all think we’ve got the best idea.

I think the best idea for me is to be my own boss, asap, and never again allow the empire to interfere with my business dealings.

However, I am very excited that Kristi is coming soon! YAY DE SEESTOR!!!!!!!!
