Owning a new car is painful...

well i guess i should say keeping up with the warranty requirements is painful....i'm sitting here in the toyota dealership right now...interneting my life away...trying not to think about the $238 i'm going to be spending on this "routine checkup"...15,000 miles comes pretty quickly when all you do is drive for a living....it also doesn't help that it comes right at the end of a 2 week stretch where i haven't worked at all...but alas...tomorrow will be the start of another couple months of traveling...its in my blood really...and i find it hard to think of leaving this job for one that i work in the same place day after day after month after year.....i feel spoiled now...i mean maybe there will be a point where i will get sick of it...really the only think i could think of that would get old...is not getting to meet new people...establish new friendships...meet the woman of my dreams....besides all that...i'm really excited to be going back to work...sure i need money....but its funny that now i come home for time off...and its seems the more tense for me....not having many friends...sitting in the house all day...and then when i go back to work...its like a vacation...going to new places...seeing new things...tasting new foods....how can i complain....i just hope it lasts...the daily grind doesn't sound too appetizing

When I ponder hard enough...

...2 things grab me

1. the absurdity of professional sports leagues
2. an overwhelming fear of eternity
