some random stuff Last night the members of the off shift crew were all up in arms about first shift and the company in general. Coming back after a three day weekend, I was probably the most positive person in the crowd. I could understand and relate to most of their complaints, but I was still riding my weekend high and they couldn't corrupt me. After the second shft crew left for the night, I was left with just the anger of my third shift coworker. None of this was new to me. ... Walking through the local mall yesterday afternoon, I felt a twinge of old age. It seemed that all of the young women that I saw were wearing the same uniform. Yes, almost all of them were attired in baggy low cut jeans and baby tee shirts. I could have sworn that they had been issued the same dress code. It was eerie. Seeing them made me wonder if any of them could think for themselves. I'm not saying that some of them weren't attractive, it just made me feel odd. Girls didn't dress that way when I was in high school or at the very least the social uniform at the time was different. ... As for the most important woman in my life, she and some friends are having a girls night out this evening so I won't be seeing her today. Sigh. Even though I'll miss her, it's good that she does other things without me. In the past I've been with girlfriends who always had to have me along and that got to be annoying. I don't need to be attached at the hip to someone. I also value some time by myself.
