I know that to speak harshly of one's current employer on such a public platform as a blog is a veritible shot in the eyeball. So in observance of this fact I will not do that. But goodness it is going to take a great deal of willpower.
My parents are mostly likely in Australia by now. I talked them last night while they were in LA awaiting their 3:00 A.M. take off. They had a 14 hour flight looming and they sounded tired yet excitedly impatient. I burdened them with my job woes so there is no need to unload here. I got it all out.
Speaking of my parents' trip to Australia, I feel quite envious of them. Of course I can be jealous of anyone traveling abroad without even thinking about it, but my parents have been world traversing several times a year for a few years now. Many trips to Hawaii, Honduras, Ireland, France, Belgium, and now Australia. I am proud of my parents and how hard they have worked to be able to enjoy parts of our world that many Americans are not able to, but I am also a bit miffed that this is not myself and my wife. One of the reasons we decided to marry so young was that we both wanted to travel widely and far-ly and we figured it makes so much more sense to do just that together in wedded bliss. So far we have made it to Canada. We are on our way to being true jet-setters. We are actually going back to Canada this summer to lounge at her family's cottage and so I can finally meet an Aunt and Uncle and "crew" of cousins I have yet to. We are also heading East next month to play music for some people are various venues. My parents are in their fifties and have been married over a quarter century. Melissa and I are in our early twenties and have been married about three-quarters of a year. Perhaps all is as it should be.
