Rantings of a Crazy Girl

I should change my blog site name to that. It's all I ever do any more it seems.

Emotional wreck. That should be my new name, but just how it happened I will never know. I have always been able to control my emotions, and I do mean always. Now? Not so much. It was just like a giant switch got flipped over and now a simple comment or something on TV has the power to make me tear up. It's the most annoying thing ever. I hate to cry, and I do mean hate. I guess I see it as a sign of my weakness. I know it's silly, but I doubt I will change the way I view it after 22 years.

Maybe it is my current minor depression. I said minor don't get all crazy on me, and trust me I know the symptoms and signs better than the next person. It's minor. I blame two things, the government and unemployment. If our country wasn't run by a bunch of greedy crooks two thing would be different right now, the war and the recession. Now don't go off on me yet. I support our troops and the war. (I date a solider remember?) BUT I don't agree with the way it has been run and dealt with. If I had it my way we would be done with the war, but what do I know about that kind of stuff?

The recession wouldn't have happened without all that free trade stuff that the government thought would be so smart. Oh yea send ALL our jobs over seas because the businesses will make more money due to the fact that the cost of operations will be lower because of cheaper labor. Let me ask you something, who is losing jobs? AMERICANS. Who are these businessmen and companies? Politicians and the government! Yup let's shoot ourselves in our own foot. Welcome to the recession and mass unemployment! Brilliant!

So thank you Uncle Sam for taking my boyfriend away, leaving me with no job, a ton of education that is proving useless, and student loans that don't pay themselves. My life is amazing and I feel so great about myself. Yea, my self esteem has never been higher. Hey, maybe that's why I'm an emotional wreck! At least good ol' Uncle Sam helped me discover one thing and now I don't have to pay a shrink like the other million people who are unemployed and depressed. Whew, that sure is a relief...
