Summer Vacation!

Post by Saint_ »

Well, I'm on Summer Vacation, but I go back to teach Summer School next week. That's a good thing because too much time off is bad for me. I lay around the house, playing videogames, watching DVDs and eating too much. I'd rather be working.

But Summer School will be over much earlier this year, (thanks to the Great Recession) so, since gas is cheap, I'm thinking of going to see my little sister who has a beautiful house right on the water in Seattle.

Anyone else have big plans to travel and see cool stuff this summer?:-6

That`s great, now you have some time to spend with your wife and since she is doing so much better, maybe you two can go here and there.:-6

Sounds so nice to go and see your sister on the waterfront.

no plans here, no money.

3 more weeks for me. :(

But no summer school. I get to stay home, go to the beach for 5 days, and go home for a visit.:-4

Another story I think of when people mention marijuana is the story of "The Three Musketeers" (my own personal version, that is.) There were three of us who hung together as best friends in high school. Two of us got educated, took life seriously, had ambition and drive and became professionals. We are both successful, with good-paying stable jobs, homes, cars, and families.

The other friend turned to marijuana. He sat and still sits on his couch, getting stoned. He lives in a trailer out in the boonies which belongs to his sister and shares his bedroom with her kids. He has never held a stable job, but he does work semi-consistently as a janitor at a restaurant. He bought his first car the other day, a used pickup, at the age of 50.

I've always thought that success requires two things: skills and desire. You have to want a life for yourself, and you have to be able to do things to get it. Pot robs you of your desire. It's a total ambition killer.
