whoa nelly

God is incredible. Do you ever have one of those days where everything points to one theme. Everything seems to be working together to get one point across to you.

I love it when God does that.

After months and months of not even being able to think a thought through to completion, to have an entire day where everything makes sense and is applicable.
What a refreshment.

has anyone ever told you?

Excuse me, sir that looks normal.
has anyone ever told you that you walk like a clown?
seriously, when you pass my cubical i halfway expect a seal with a fluffy collar to be not to far behind.
no, really, the enitre floor shakes when you're coming, passing and going. i think it has something to do with your imaginary shoes that are 13 inches too long for your foot.
why are you walking like that?
it's like you go swimming in the morning and forget that you took the flippers off when you got to work.
also, why are you ALWAYS walking around? what is it that you do for this company that requires you making laps?

oh, no one's told you?

shocker

baby's got new shoes

the vast unknown

Turns out there are a lot of thing i don't know.
but for now we will focus on a very disturbing unknown.
Where did "thepadlock.blogspot.com" go?

I have no idea. To the best of my understanding a rabidly obsessed fan from my overwhelmingly large reader-base turned against me.

He or she decided that if they couldn't have it all to themselves, no one should be able to have it at all.

I realize that the drudgery of my day to day life accounts was wildly entertaining, but seriously people. can't we all just get along?

So what's been going on? I think we left off right after my two week stint in Lubbock Texas.
where I got a speeding ticket, saw my nephew at his debut into the world, learned of my grandmother's death, spent time with a boy, and got my pusre (containing anything important) stolen from a dressing room at a store.

since then i have started a career.
I was sent to houston for training. this trip was an adventure to say the least.
nice nice nice hotel
all meals comped
trip to the museums
flights and travel were paid.

i now spend my days in a box made of carpet. i look at spreadsheets and talk on conference calls. business casual is my new buying mind set.

life is beautiful.
there are ups and downs and it's all normal.

i'm sure that once i settle in things will feel right.
