I met up with Chad and we did a full scale gym day. Worked out to the extreme. Did weights, swimming pool, and the rock climbing wall. It felt great, to just sweat, vent, get out all the untapped emotion that lies around the muscles in your body. I'm a tad upset I don't feel sore right now, but maybe that will come in a little bit.
After a great workout, we went out to Bar Louie for $1.00 burger night with Kaitlin, Melissa and April. I work with April and Kaitlin, both very sweet and nice girls, with a positive attitude. April I respect a lot, and she's a Florida native. Kaitlin has a mind that will take on anything, she's learning Japanese, travels all over the planet, yes, I work with extraordinary people. After burger night we went our ways, and Chad and I went over to Melissa's for a brief time to talk with her parents, just hang out.
I need to work on actually taking pictures at the right time. I thought about capturing an image of the rockwall, but that failed. I wanted to get a picture of all of us at Bar Louie, but that failed. I managed to get a picture for today of a stray cat that approached my car last night. It was an image I could relate to. I feel like that cat lately. I have a home, so in the general sense I'm not pertaining directly to this, but I feel so stray. Like a cat. Disconnected from the world, wandering. I'm a wanderer. I feel like a drifter lately. I have that home I can go back to, and I'll always have a home, but when I'm on my own, I feel unplugged. And just like that cat, tapping back into society or the world is easy, that's how cats do it. They rub up on your leg or meow. Simple attention and you're noticed; how similar I am to this. If I feel I'm going to be noticed, or if I want to jump back into... "life", I can put on a face, act like I want attention, whatever, and I'll get it. A connection back into something. But connections are only temporary. Ask AT&T, or look at power lines. They end. At a party it's "Hey, I like this too... let's talk and I'll fit in tonight and then after tonight I'll never talk to you again, in fact, I'll wake up tomorrow and despise you as a person... I'm just faking this to "tap in"." I feel like the cat, just looking for something, I don't know what though. Maybe some smoked salmon.....
Mmmmmmhhmmmmmmm.....
Thanks Cat.
