So I have gone through a lot in the last year of my life, and the last two months have been no exception; if anything it seems up life kicked up that ass kicking a notch. On top of my grandpa passing away four weeks ago, finding out that some weird shit happened to me as a kid, my cousin killing herself, my girl friend dumping me, and my job ending in two weeks; I had a shitty day at work.
So I am not sure if my head was just not there today at work, but shit was just not going my way. I was taking a 150 pound sign down from the ceiling, trying to be careful since I was in the CD isle and I was doing this by myself; I was about to slide it into my sky lift, it had the last wire in it so I did not have to do all the balancing. Just as I was sliding it in, it started to tip, so I tried to grab it but it was to heavy and had way to much momentum; I tried to catch it but it old smashed my head, bruised my shoulder and elbow, and cut my fingers open… Then smashed the rack of CD’s below, it fell from 15 feet up in the air.
Then some other minor things, spilled my full soda all over myself and my food at Steak ‘N’ Shake, and fucked up the carpet.
What did I do in this life to have this? I thought over all I was a good person, but apparently karma has a different perception. The saying of “When it rains it pours” has never been more true, the only thing I want to know is when is it going to clear up and bring in the good days? It is really difficult not to get down on ones self when all this shit is going on. I love life, I love my life, but come on Hey-zusus, this shit is getting ridiculous.
I am not sure where I was going with this, I guess just venting, I am fed up and wanted to bitch to whoever will listen.

I know the feeling. Not so much as all the terrible stuff that’s happened to you but just the feeling of “how can shit get any worse”…and then it does. But Hopefully reconnecting with your family and the change in pace with this job ending will bring other happiness. As if you are climbing the most horrible and treacherous hill. i’m talking, covered in mud, shitty weather, bugs, nothing to eat, bad shelter…..but when you get the the top, you can see the other side and it’s the most kickass place you could ever imagine and it’s so much better cause you worked hard and kept going to get there. at least that’s what i hope. but at least through all this shit you still have a ton of kick ass friends. Hopefully you can cheer up soon. take care bro.

Things will get better, I promise. Right when you think you just can’t take one more thing not going your way, something amazing will happen.
I think you should definitely extend your CA visit a week and spend some time relaxing. You are welcome to spend some time here and I know your brother wouldn’t throw you out either. Go see the ocean, spend some time in the mountains, and we’ll go to some shows.

So you know what happens after it rains….Sunshine! I seen a beatuiful rainbow last Friday right after you dropped me off:) Shit will get better. Just stay strong and know that good things are in store for you, you are such a good man. You spoke of Karma, what you put out there is what you get back, so you have tons of great things coming to you! Be patient with yourself as you grow, time heals!
Peace… Sarah
