Ah, Monday, how I kinda like thee. Let me count the ways...

Monday's are usually a day off for me, 'cept today. I went in for a "half day" at work, which turned into more like 2/3 of a day. I kinda like working for the German club. It gives me a sense of doing something helpful for the organization, while getting paid. It's a non-profit organization so I don't make very much money, hence one of my previous blogs "A career, a career. My kingdom for a career." I understand the sacrifices that were made to create this organization and the monetary restraints that go along with such, so I don't ask for more money. Money is kind of a lost cause for me. I've never had much, and probably never will, and that's fine with me. Just as long as I can support a family, which is impossible at the current rate. Even though I have very expensive taste in cars, I will probably never step foot inside of a Ferrari, or my beloved Audi R8 because of my contentment with being broke.

All I really want out of life is to be a man that supports his family while still being me. Is that too much to ask? I have to stay out of the negative to attain what I wish. I have taken drastic measures against negativity in the past several years. I have ex-communicated some "friends" that were just dragging me down, and I have reduced the amount of cursing to a minimum. I know I'll never get rid of everything that bothers me, but I'm stepping in the right direction. Man, that's a lot of metaphoric clichés.

...For long you live and high you fly.
The smiles you give, the tears you'll cry.
And all you touch and all you see,
Is all your life will ever be...
---Pink Floyd, "Breathe"
