I'm falling in love with the trees...

So yesterday was the Fall Festival at Shadow's school... it was pretty fun. I forgot to bring my camera in with me so I missed a few good shots - such as Shadow and his teacher climbing up and then sliding down a GINORMOUS blow-up slide together, or him pitifully attempting to play golf. Yeah, I can promise you that kid is no Tiger Woods... 😂

Lately I'm finding myself attracted to trees. Not like I'm becoming a tree-humper or anything; I just absolutely love the way they look. I don't know if it's the season or what, but I see so many that I think are positively gorgeous - whether they've changed colors, lost their leaves, or not. Maybe I'm just now beginning to pay attention to them...

Scooter's been doing a weird / funny thing lately... he chases his tail A LOT... it's funny and stuff, but he's pulling all the hair out of the end of his tail. It doesn't look very good... it makes my butt cringe. 😬 Also, he's turning into a little man-dog... he's all picking up his leg on the occasion when he pees... it's so cute, but I don't even know why he bothers. He's so short he can't reach anything other than the ground anyway. Oh well; I feel him. I don't let my height stop me from doing whatever I want to do, either.

Anyway, well, I've gotten lazy... no, that's not it at all - rather, my attention has shifted temporarily from my writing to finding a new fucking job. (No worries, though - there WILL be more to come). I've been saying for the longest time that I was leaving the place I currently work... but I never have. There were a few reasons for that, but here are the main two.

1) I have thought on and off that the company was going to actually be successful somehow and that I should stick it out, and 2) I wanted to get my two years of experience in since this was my first job out of college. No one seems to really want to hire people without experience, (not in my field, anyway). Well I've got my experience and I'm dead serious this time. I've been looking hella-hardcore (yeah, I made that phrase up; you can use it if you pay me 😝) and I'm not stopping until something comes of it. I hate to admit it, but I'm completely miserable working at that place and life's too short to be spent being miserable. There are a LOT of things that factor into that, but I'm not going into it right now.

SO... what's going on will all of you peoples? A small percentage of my friends blog so I don't have a clue what's going on with yas. Speak up, damnit! I love you! (But not as much as trees.)  😉
