"We can be friends" and other lies

I have never maintained a relationship of any sort after a break up. Polite is about all I can manage. When a relationship is over it is as though that person has died. I'll miss em' but it's time to move on. Whenever I see them it's every bit as frightening as seeing a ghost. You can at least call Bill Murray and force her into a box using electric licorice whips. (A Ghostbuster reference.)
Once the decision has been made to part ways, that's all she wrote and it's almost always mutual. There is nothing left to say. When you quit your job in high school you didn't go back and try to ring people up at Target.
Relationships (if done properly) should be filled with passion & intensity and the break up should be just as passionate and intense as the relationship. Lets part friends BULLSHIT! Somebody's been hurt, and that makes it ugly! You can't be friends with someone you've loved and then broken up with. You can't turn it on and off like a light, from"I love you." to "Were cool." doesn't work. If you've done that one of two things is at work here
1. You didn't care that much in the first place.
2. YOU ARE LYING TO YOURSELF.
Here is a similar thought by someone more articulate and more rational than myself.

Don't worry I hate your Job too.

It's the moments when my job goes really well that makes me realise how much I truly hate it. When everything goes as it should. Everyone is polite, I've got a smile on my face and a sense of accomplishment in my heart. That when it hits me...DAMN IT! Why can't everyday be like this ? Why can't I be in love with my job everyday, instead of looking forward to driving home and drinking a High Life (yeah, at the same time don't judge me, you prick!) Where is that feeling when you think "Maybe if I drink the toner from the copier I'll at least get to leave early even if it is in an ambulance."

I'd be happy with loving my job once a week. Twice a week would be awesome. I'm not some greedy A-hole, I'm reasonable, I'd settle for once a month, but it's been maybe once a year TOPS.

Don't get me wrong I've had worse jobs than this, at least I'm inside and no one is actively out to screw me over, and I haven't felt the urge to jerk the wheel into oncoming traffic yet this year... but it's early yet.

I heart animals

SAM R.I.P
I am by all accounts an animal lover. I have been treated several times in various hospitals for animal rescuing or pet allergy related things. I just can't help it. I wouldn't go so far as to become a vegan because I believe that animal rights only go so far. Parrots shouldn't get the vote and F--- spiders all of them. But even I having to get several Tetnus shots over the years and having officiated a pigeon funeral (for real) Iwould kick this dog! DAMN! If you saw this thing under your bed you would die.
