Staying true to my procrastinating ways.....

Here it is the end of the month. At work, they have assigned us a report that tells what we have done for the previous month. What better time to blog? I must be avoiding something.

About a month ago, I drove down my street toward the nicer part of town and noticed that my street had been cut off about 2 blocks down from my house. I almost never travel this way so there is no telling how long the street had been torn up. At first, I thought nothing of it, but the place where it is torn up is right by the uber conservative church down the road from my house. Apparently, the church has taken it upon themselves to acquire that part of the road for extra parking.

This has really gotten by blood boiling. When I bought my house a little over 2 years ago, I said that as long as I was closer to the nicer part of the neighborhood I didn't mind living where I lived. Well now, the church has decided to CUT me off from the rest of my avenue. Must be nice to just take over a road. I wonder how many members of the church are working with the city. I just don't understand how they can do that without letting the neighborhood know. I don't remember hearing anything about the construction. What do you think about this? Have our voices been silenced? Life sure is different these days. Sometimes I wish that I wasn't so aware of the way things used to be. Why can't I be a normal member of the X generation?

Not Much to Write About

Nothing is really going on here in the big town of Waco. I have been working as usual and I have been coming home as usual and trying to stay out of the heat. I do have something coming up tomorrow that I am not looking forward to. Jury Duty. Yuck!! There is something about getting a whole room of strangers together and asking them very personal questions. I just don't like it. I know it is my civic duty and all that but I would rather be at work.

School is starting up for the kids in Waco tomorrow. It makes me realize how much I loved being in school. NERD! I loved all of school. I wish I could think of something I could go to school for then I could go back. New pens and notebooks. Those were the days.

I will write more on music but I am looking for inspiration on that one.
