I know in my last post about the River Discovery trip, i implied i was done talking about the river for now, but i found a few pictures on my camera, so what the hay.
I'm longing for my life on the river today. I haven't been more angry with myself in a while. I missed a voicemail for an interview. I don't know how i managed it. It was a job i really wanted. It's the most elementary part of the whole process- make sure they can contact you. Duh, duh, duh. To make matters worse, it was 6 days later i discovered the message in my 'saved' box, i should've contacted the interviewer yesterday regardless, but i was too devastated. What do i say? I'm a dumbass? Ugh. A job! Benefits! I'm such a goddam space cadet. I'm ready to hibernate. Does anybody have a cave i could borrow for a while? Fuck. I should've been a bear. (Link to a poem- my in-dwelling poet is like six years old, so don't expect too much.)
Speaking of, i apologize i've been such a petulant potty-mouth lately. It wasn't my intent to come here and curse and complain all the time. Not at all. Thanks for being so patient with me.

I meant to take more pictures on one of my favorite sections of river, but it's a little crazier, so i never had my camera out.

| The toilet. Some guests struggle with this, but i'm a fan. When was the last time you took a poo and saw a shooting star? Hm? |
Lots of love to y'all from your unemployed, rubbish-brained former river guide.
I don't think you're a potty mouth. But then again, you know me.
ReplyDeleteThe river- no wonder you love it so.
In that case, i appreciate your gracious reading then, Ms. Moon, and i'm so glad to know you. I'm grateful as i'll get you've provided us the opportunity. It's both a privilege and a joy. And i'm not bein no ass-kissin, brown-nosin' sycophant neither. You're tops.
DeleteThanks for visiting my blog! I'll let A Farmer in the Dell know you like her blog, too!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. You're on my radar now. Thanks for stopping by my blog too!
DeleteI have to believe you lost that job because a better one will come along. As Carrie Link, above, always says, "There are no accidents!"
ReplyDeleteSheesh. We'll see. They said they'll probably be hiring again in January. I have a dog-walking gig, so now i just need to figure out how to live off of five buck a day till January.
DeleteBeautiful pictures. What river is that? And thanks for reading my blog!
ReplyDeleteThank you Betsy. It's the Main Salmon River in Idaho. Ha! I love your blog! I'll be back. What Makes You Think I Have Cats? cracks me up!
DeleteI'm blaming that job thing on voice mail. So much has fallen down that rabbit hole. An archaic system. NOT your fault.
ReplyDeleteYou were born to have fun. And be funny. Thank you for visiting Alice and me. I've really been loving what you have to say.
Aw Andrea, you're definitely helping to combat that whole ugly, counter-productive, nefarious, self-degradation monster. Thanks for the boost.
ReplyDeleteThe pleasure has been all mine really, what an enchanting place you share with us. I'm in awe of your abilities. It's a treat spending time at Alice and me.
