"Let em' work, let em' live."

So they are paving the highway I drive on to get to work and its in SC. Well I just noticed that on their road construction signs they have the above slogan. They don't have this slogan that I'm aware of in NC. I find this saying to be most peculiar because it assumes that me the driver am out to kill road workers. I know its their way of warning me to slow down and pay extra attention to the construction thats happening but it just makes me laugh. The saying really doesn't even make good sense. I will let them work therefore I am letting them live. And if they're not working then its perfectly ok for me to kill them at my leisure? And who came up with this slogan? The image of road construction and caution does not evoke this saying in my brain. Its just odd to me.... so I will let them work and if they're really really nice, I will let them live.

So after just writing this I did a search and found out that it is a snazzy add campaign to make drivers aware that road workers are real people to with families and such. Wow I thought they were robots, thanks DOT!

"When God fearin' women get the blues...."

I actually hate that song but seriously today I woke up with an overwhelming feeling of sadness and I have nothing to be sad about. Its one of those days when you want to cry your eyeballs out for nothing. And the slightest thing drives you nutty. I hate these kinds of days! Why does the female race have these days? I can see why there are so many people on anti-depressant drugs because today I would pay to have some.

On top of this I checked out the new Kelly Clarkson cd from the library and I actually like it. In fact I like almost every song on the cd. Have I completely lost my mind? Maybe this is why I'm depressed, my mind is too confused as to why its associating Kelly with good music....

And to make matters worse I had one of those days yesterday where you let your mind wander about all the things that could go wrong in your life which leads to questioning God which leads to a mess. I hate when I do that. Its just been all around one big cry day. Tomorrow WILL be better or else!!

Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise??????? Can she be any luckier at age 26? I mean she was just like me sitting around in junior high drooling over him in Top Gun and now she's kissing him in Italy. What a dream come true.
