My life is happy and boring again. The world is crazy, but it always has been, and always will be. Things happen the way they're supposed to. Good people suffer. Bad people suffer too. As a species, we evole.
I'm watching saudi arabia and lybia and wisconsin. I want to go to japan to help with rescue and rebuilding, but I want my boat more. There will be other disasters and places where I am needed in the future. Now my roommate needs me. She's hitting a low. Unemployment is wearing on her. I am very happy that I am bringing in enough to cover both our expenses and even buy a meal out once in a while. But she needs to support herself. Being unable to is definitely wearing on her, but she may have a bartending position starting this comming weekend.
Staff is changing at my restuarant. I'm working seven days a week at the moment, but that's okay. I like the structure working every day gives me, and the money isn't bad either. I've turned into the goto guy when there's a staff shortage, and I'm really happy to be together enough to always say yes.
Mostly I'm just really happy to know that I am exactly where and when I am supposed to be. Its been a long time since I've felt this way. I can't change much in this world, but I am happy to be able to treat just about everyone I interact with with kindness and good will.
Last night at about 4:30 am a couple drunk assholes tried to break into my truck. Billy the jack russell heard them first and woke me up. We both went outside, and we had the desired effect; first a beefy little dog in a pirate T-shirt appearing and barking out of nowhere, then a crazy old guy in his underwear yelling "stay out of my truck". Hee hee hee. They tried to act tough, but I know we scared them, and they didn't bother us any more. Punks.
Life is full of fun little moments like that. They woke my friend up though, and we both had trouble getting back to sleep. Still, I made it to work on time despite the spring forward, and she got some sleep too.
So all's well that ends well. I'm still seperated from my soulmate, but she knows I'm okay, and I know she's still alive. Summer is comming fast, but we still have lovely cool evenings and beautiful sunsets in south florida. Its good to be home.
