Clarity

A few weeks ago, I watched a clip from the movie Office Space on YouTube and found myself laughing because the film still holds up today for those of us who do office work. I enjoyed this movie when I saw it initially more than 20 years ago, and I still enjoy it now, 20+ years later. 

I had a meeting yesterday with my manager and others from my day job and it left me feeling really annoyed with everyone involved (myself included), but it also left me with clarity. Sometimes you need a signal or a kick in the ass to make you see things you've either  been blind to or ignored for too long. I woke up this morning still feeling annoyed about that meeting, but also knowing that it's time to make some changes in my life this year. I should have actually made changes last year, but I didn't because I was too worried about Donny T's return to the White House and figured I'd better keep the status quo and see how things shake out. Well, things ain't shaking out too well and it's time to start making some moves no matter what's up with Donny T and the Funky Bunch, Part Deux. Now, I'll do what I have to in order to keep my eyes on the prize and move my life forward. Change is hard 9and it's even harder when you're older), but sometimes it's necessary and fear shouldn't keep me or anyone from doing what you feel is best for you and your life.

Bye, Bye, Bye

This week, I finally said "bye" to my Netflix subscription, and not a day too soon. I'd been contemplating canceling the service because, far too frequently, I would log onto Netflix, see what shows and movies were offered, and log back out without having watched anything. I was a Netflix subscriber since the days when they sent DVDs in the mail, but no more! I gave it up because I just wasn't happy with what they were offering: shows I wasn't interested in and many movies I didn't want to sit through. The last thing I was really interested in watching on Netflix was Squid Game and I even struggled to get through the final season of that show. 

In other news, Donny T has given the boot to his janky AG, Pam Bondi. Good, but we all know she'll just be replaced by another bootlicker. The same goes for Kristi Noem who got the boot a few weeks ago. One sycophant replaced by another. I doubt either Bondi or Noem will realize they sold their souls to the devil and got nothing in return except humiliation and a kick in the ass out the door. Bye, Felicias.
