About Me

i have a really good relationship with my favorite gas station attendant. does everyone have a favorite station attendant? there's nothing NOT to like about mine. just today we shared a nice smile. he's always ready when i need him, he's very sincere, and we definitely get a kick out of each other. i think getting a kick out of someone is the basis of any strong relationship. once there's no kick, there's really nothing rewarding about the experience at all. if you're not getting kicks, you're most likely getting pissed off. my gas station attendant has never pissed me off. i like him a lot.

What bothers me about bugs is that they crawl into my space and they are made of something with their bodies that I dont really know what it is.   Anyway, what I am left with here is time to wea...
