i had an awesome title and i forgot it, dang.

I've had all these great blog-worthy thoughts the last day, and now that I open the box to start rambling them, they're missing.

One, that I remember, is regarding this weird time in life that I guess people are calling the "twenty-somethings". It's appropriate I suppose. The reason it felt blog-worthy was for a moment it occurred to me that this would be a time in life that I will one day look back at fondly and recall how it felt like I was straddling a deep chasm. One the one side there are my twenties - the start of which includes the last two years of college, a few moves, and a relatively easy workload. On the other side are the thirties - what appear to be full of the doom and gloom that appears when one becomes "old", brought on by the realization that work isn't always carefree and fun, life is rather serious, and kids really do change your life. And the reason I'll look back fondly at this time is that I'm sure the way I'm looking at the thirties will be rather humorous to me after I've lived through them and they're not really much different than living through my twenties.

Another item is the rate at which I use the library. The online option is fantastic and allows me to turn some librarian somewhere into my personal assistant. I search for the books I want online, request them to hold for me, and then show up once I get an email to find all the books I requested in my hold section ready for me to check out. How amazing and easy is that? I currently have about eight books checked out regarding how to be a manager, and two books regarding negotiations. I'm excited about one I just requested: "Eat. ShopTwinCities".

Another is something I would guess might be a little controversial. I recently found out about two people I know who are having an affair. I won't go into any detail, but the point I have to make is that I've found this information affects my opinion of both people. and that it suprises me that people think it shouldn't. Both were married before this started and now they're pursuing divorces. I now have little respect for either of them and my level of trust in their ability and integrity is erased. I suppose we're living in a world where this is rather commonplace, but why is it wrong of me to hope that we aren't?

Anyway, today is supposed to be the nicest day of the weekend, so I'm going outside.
Happy weekend all!
