Let's Try That Crazy Pizza Monster's Place Across the Street

For the past month or so, when I'm at work and have forgotten my lunch, I have been calling up delivery places from time to time. One of the places I call I end up calling more the food and less for the service. Every time I call the place the phone is picked up by a morose guy that is focused on being so dispassionate that he could fit in well as a dementor in the Harry Potter world. I'm fine dealing with people with oddball attitudes, I do it every day; however, this guy is a little too much to deal with.

So what is there to do?

I could have kept going and gave that guy crap or just tried something new. Sure, I could have complained the first restaurant and, as a matter of fact, I did talk with someone, but I asked if their employee was fine. As it turned out, they had been trying to get him help for a long time. Not really much point in arguing with that. So I let it be. I tried a new place down the street and it was fantastic. Is it the type of food I normally want? No, but the food is still great and the people there are a lot nicer.

Just Remember: If someone else sucks, sometimes it is easier just to be the bigger person and walk away.

Happy New Year

It was 13 years and two days ago today that Phillip J. Fry became frozen in a cryogenic tube. He will not awaken for another 988 years and one day. Until he awakens, we can only hope that we see the same adventure and wonderment in this new year that he experiences when he awakens in the year 3000.

Just Remember: Dr. Samuel Beckett of project Quantum Leap is still lost, few people know where The Doctor is, and nobody really gives a crap about those two idiots who lived in that Lake House.

Resolutions of the New and Auld

With X-Mas essentially over, we are merely a few days away from a new year. Nearly everyone I know has an issue with the potential for a New Year's resolution. What's the point? I will just give up on it in a week anyway. That may be, but the point of a resolution is to discover a way to venture into becoming a new you. A better you, preferably in a way that doesn't involves space-worms. If you want to take steps to being more fun, take up a hobby. Or if you want to exercise your mind, try taking up an instrument.

Many people end up quitting because the change is too hard. It is easy to want to give up when a goal is ridiculously hard. Try something easy. Don't attempt the holophoner as a first instrument and don't attempt rock climbing as your new exercise activity. Start slow and work towards it. If that isn't enough, set mini goals for your resolution over the course of the new year.

Just Remember: Having goals aren't always to completely change you, but to make sure you are getting something more out of life.
