Mutterings in the Wind…
11/02/2008
I sit and dwell upon the world, and I am unimpressed… I am waiting for a teaching authority (Langley or Abbotsford for now) to call me, but they refrain. “Why?” I ask myself. Is it that I am unworthy to work for them, or is it that I am too wonderful, and they are intimidated by the wonder, the might, the sheer complexity that is me. (Sorry, just trying to boost my self-esteem). It is more likely that the wheels of bureaucracy grind slowly, and thus I am made to wait, sitting at my computer, blogging my thoughts for my 3 or 4 loyal readers to gaze upon and despair.
I continue to slog at the electronics mine, selling things full of silicon, germanium, arsenic, mercury, titanium, iron, lead, polymerized hydrocarbons and other assorted nasties to people who might or might not actually need them. In fact, I am dealing with more chemicals than I did when I was actually teaching high school chemistry… Oh well, it is a job, and I have it, and it is really not the worse place in the world to be, so I will endure.
Not much else new in my life. I am really in a state of limbo, or waiting if you prefer. ‘Waiting’ has a more hopeful sound than ‘limbo’. Now if I had said purgatory, that would be really bad. I certainly do not feel that I am suffering for past sins… I do continue to fight ignorance and cruelty, though I have not had many places in which to battle. Ask my sister, as I gave some basic information on the theory of evolution in response to a sermon she heard.
I think I will go, for I have depressed you, my loyal reader, far more than I am sure that you wished upon entering this, my virtual domain.
Until Next Time
