I'd planned to blog about my thoughts on the end of the world in regards to all the wildfires, murders, floods, etc but I'll be damned if I didn't come into work today and our phone is disconnected AGAIN! Now seriously...the last time it got shut off there was someone to blame (not really, but he was there so they used him) but NOW the only person left holding the bag is the person who is responsible for the bag, period. If I never knew before, I know now..I've got to get the hell outta dodge. This place is well on it's way to bankruptcy. What's funny is, I kinda want to stick around to watch it unfold. That's so ignorant...but who doesn't want (whether they admit it or not) their daily dose of ignorance.
Speaking of ignorance...there was a guy in the train terminal begging for change. I didn't have anything to give him (and he looked legitimately hungry) so I shrugged as to say "I'm sorry, I don't have any cash" and kept going. Apparently the person behind me wasn't so nice about it and said something smart (I didn't hear it) and the homeless (I presume) guy went clean off. He was like "Man all you have to do is say no and keep it moving! You didn't have to say all that! Why would you talk to me like that?" and blah blah blah...I felt bad for the guy (really I did...but it still didn't negate the fact that I didn't have anything to offer him). I wonder why folks are always so mean to homeless people (me included). I think I just have a low tolerance for EVERYBODY. Seriously...
*LMAO #@ myself...I forgot that fast that the phone was off and hit my speaker button to make a call*
Anyhow, today is National AIDS Awareness...or something to that effect day. They are offering free testing all over the US (I think) but I'll be willing to bet most people wont take advantage b/c they are sure they are "clean" etc. I'm looking for the closest place to go get tested...not b/c I'm doing this I shouldn't...but I wasn't saved ALL my life either. People it's important to know your status whether you are hetero homo married single or divorced. Remember how they used to say that one drop of black blood made you a ni**er? The same holds true...one drop of infected body fluid and you're officially infected. That's ALL it takes people...be smart and take advantage of the opportunities awarded to you. I hate to sound all motherish, but there are people in Africa who would kill at the chance to be tested and get treatment (if they are infected).
*jumps off soapbox*
G'Day folks!
Lady Doss
*Oh and don't try and call me at work...bwahahahahahahahahahahaha!*
