Promoting something of a dream

My head spins, dizzy as the sky.

This week I got a promotion at work.
I voiced my opinion and explained that I was blatantly bored intellectually with
being a Techinical Designer.
And there were also hidden health reasons...
My eyes were about to burn-out, and my back is currently being repaired by the good folks down at Kinatex Physiotherapy due to poor office ergonomics.
FYI: It was disgusting, they told me that within one day your fingers type 17km.
Believe it.
It is nice to have benefits paid for via this job. They milk me so I turn around and Milk them.
Also hence the removal of my Wisdom teeth last month. (i am doing fine by the way)


Anyway, I have been quite busy training for my BROWN BELT passage which is next month.
I hope that I can pass the pre-testing othewise I will have to wait another 6mths.

So currently I am struggling to keep up at work with becoming a Production Manager of Starter Canada.
It sounds good on paper/Blog. Which will be to my advantage when the big T-dot welcomes me with open arms this Winter. I plan to go ahead and move there this February and yes=with my lawyer! However my mom still doesnt believe that it will all 'work-out' at this point.
"what if it doesnt work out?" she questioned me the other night.
I suppose my track record of seeing complete engineer morons has tarnished all that is now finally AMAZING in my life. And truly this makes me upset to hear and also sad to explain. BUT she means well and I respect her for looking out for me, sometimes its hard for people to think and or see straight when in love. Your eyes are giant red hearts and really, who can see through giant red hearts?
(oh yah, ME)



Another interesting story that I came across today via Matt Good's blog at:
www.matthegood.org

involves the US’s refusal to sign the UN’s Plan For Women.
How do you like that? Brilliant, I know. Can you imagine, its 2004.
I am always saddened by this country, let me get this straight for the record:
I do not hate Americans, I just hate their gov't.



“United Nations - The United States has refused to join 85 heads of state and government in signing a statement that endorsed a 10-year-old U.N. plan to ensure every woman's right to education, healthcare and choice about having children. The Bush administration said it withheld its signature because the statement included a reference to "sexual rights."

Kelly Ryan, deputy assistant secretary of State, wrote to backers of the plan that the United States was committed "to the empowerment of women and the need to promote women's fullest enjoyment of universal human rights."

"The United States is unable, however, to endorse the world leaders' statement," Ryan said, because it "includes the concept of 'sexual rights,' a term that has no agreed definition in the international community." Ryan did not elaborate. At previous U.N. meetings, U.S. representatives have spoken out against abortion, gay rights and what they see as the promotion of promiscuity by distributing condoms to prevent AIDS.

The statement was signed by leaders of 85 nations, including those in the European Union, China, Japan, Indonesia, Pakistan and more than a dozen African countries, as well as 22 former world leaders.”


I also needn’t comment on this. The ignorance involved does a perfectly acceptable job of presenting itself.
