Random thoughts

It is suddenly dawning on me, I haven't seen one of my superintendants for quite awhile. Months.

He's an old dude - very old. He had been showing increasing signs of dementia-ish-ness for a few years now.

But you'd always see him around. Wandering around the grounds out front - or in the laundry room. I would frankly avoid him so I didn't get dragged into one of his rambles.

Except not for a few months now.

I wonder if the old dude died or something.
 
He's got a wife. She's a bit younger. (like 70 versus 85 ???)

I saw her today.

If I don't gain any new information in the next few days I'll have to figure out a strategic way to address their holiday bonus card. I already have to avoid any mention of Christmas because they're Jehovah's Witnesses. Not that that's any big deal. But I usually write their names on there.

I don't know. I can't assume I would have heard if something happened. I'm always out of the loop on things. Same thing at work. Guys get fired and I don't know about it for two weeks.

It really is weird how long I've gone without seeing the guy.

Hmmm.

:thinking:
 
I'm not interested in fighting the so-called War Against Christmas.

Every once in awhile someone lays that on me - how they're pissed when people say Happy Holidays instead of Marry Christmas - and I can tell they expect me to join in.

I guess because I'm very white and old.

But no. If I never hear the word Christmas again in my life, I'd be pretty happy about that.
 
I'm a little conflicted when people tell me Merry Christmas. I never wanna be an ass to someone who's trying to be friendly and well meaning. But it feels like as a Jew, even an atheist one, I can't be going around uttering Christmas greetings. So it usually goes something like "yeah thanks, you too". Occasionally throw in a Happy New Year :dunno:
 
The tellers at the bank are becoming extra annoying as fuck.


‘How is your day going?’

‘What are your plans for the weekend?’

‘Hope you have a merry christmas!’


My day was going fine before this forced stranger small talk.

Like why haven’t machines fully displaced you yet.

I always figure they ask you questions because they're mandated by the government to make sure you're not acting or doing anything that can be considered suspicious
