Thinking Positively

Ladies and gentlemen,

Have you ever had one of those days where you find it very ...how do I put this... arduous...

Definition: Difficult, hard to endure - Synonyms include: backbreaking, burdensome, exhausting, fatiguing, formidable, grueling, harsh, heavy, labored, laborious, murder, no picnic, onerous, painful, punishing, rigorous, rough, severe, strenuous, taxing, tiring, toilsome, tough, troublesome, trying, uphill

...to stay positive. You try to keep a straight face, not let people realize how you are feeling, because the moment someone does, "Oh, are you alright? Can I help you? That must be tough?" You either 1.) Let 'em have it (they become your emotional punching bag) or 2.) Hurt their feelings and tell them to screw off and leave you alone. I can handle this on my own... Which reminds me of a Jeff Dunham joke, Jeff was conversing with his puppet, Walter...

Jeff Dunham: Ya know, your birthday wasn't to long ago, did your wife get you anything?
Walter: Yeah, she got me a book on reincarnation.
Jeff Dunham: Oh, do you believe in reincarnation?
Walter: Hell, I don't know.
Jeff Dunham: Well if reincarnation
happens, who would you come back as and what would you do?
Walter: I'd come back as my wife and leave me the hell alone.

...at least he's honest...
Everything on these particular days, seems to look and feel "negative". It would be easier to hide under the sheets and forget everything that happened. I apologize to those who don't enjoy reading this rant, but lately it seems like this is the only place I can reason to do it. My wife already has a lot on her plate, the last thing she needs is another large serving of worry. (Not that this post will help that.) I must be lucky though, because the world seems to be full of idiots, and I don't have any of them for friends. So, to all of you who are reading, thank you for being sane.
So, to end this rant I give you the random picture of the day...
