OK. Maybe this place is better?

I believe I have moved from being scared and sad to being angry. And that, I have found, is very empowering.
I'm not the kind of person to hate anyone or anything, but hate is a powerful motivator. It can pull you from the depths of despair and give you a new purpose...a new focus.
As long as I don't allow it to consume me, I think it will help me get through this...

Work is good, although the other day I was surprised to realize that I couldn't wait to get out of there. I think that the reasons for it varied from rude customers I just couldn't shake off to a few other things (things I just don't understand and wonder why the hell they work that way), but I believe, after going to work yesterday, that management has taken steps to try to fix things. I think the business could really flourish with this new kind of leadership. It's a big job though and it's going to take diligence to watch and implement this new plan.

I don't really have anything else I feel like talking about so that's it for now.

Time heals all wounds? Can we speed the clock up here people?

    Anger can be cleansing and empowering. Just don't let it consume you.

    Welcome back! :-)

    Um. [directed to the photo of the girl in the sidebar] So like I said, can I borrow your towel? My car just hit a water buffalo...

    Let me know if you ever need some other things to get mad about. Got a whole stack here.

    Ahhh yes, the cleansing power of anger... ummm... bit of advice here, don't try to punch a hole in a plaster wall. It hurts big time and the plaster doesn't even break :)
    Hope your healing is speedy and complete. {{HUGS}}

    Anger can spur you to action, but think before you leap!

    so glad you are "coming back." I have been explaining to a little person around here, how I "hate the word hate" because it is so all consuming. The hurdles may be there, but it sounds like you are really getting better with everything. good luck.

    It is really difficult to see where healthy anger and fear end and unhealthy obsession starts. It sounds like you're moving in the right direction. :) God knows, I've been there, too. I think I live there. I know the zip code.

    Here's to happier times.

    Okay, Moooooog made me throw up in my mouth a little. Anger can be a good thing, just don't let it take up permanent residency. It keeps us from feeling numb when we really want to be, not realizing that numb is worse than angry.

    I've had the stomach crawling out of ass syndrome before. Its no fun. Blogging is therapy (and cheaper too). *Hugs* Been thinking of you.

    Read blog below and you feel exactly how do, although for different reasons I am sure...but same exact results. I could have written that and inserted "my issues here."

    So take solace in knowing you are not alone and your feelings, while difficult and very uncomfortable are probably normal ir not annoying.

    I've had some wierd one's lately, but one dream I had sticks out.

    I dreampt I was in a box or a chest and pushing against the lid to get out. At the same time something was sucking me down into the box.

    While still asleep I rolled onto my hands and knees and threw three very hard left's into the matress very near my wife's head. I was totally asleep on for the first one and by the time my hand was bouncing off the mattress the third time I was fully awake.

    Scared the hell out of my wife. And that's the only time I can recall having any sort of "sleepwalking" event. In a way it was kind of cool.
