Do you ever feel like if you tell someone about your dreams (i.e. ambitions) they will not come true? I guess it kind of makes it seem a little ridiculous because you are back in reality once you actually verbalize what it is you want to do.

I know a guy who, for some reason, thinks that to be a lumber jack is the ultimate man's job. But when he tries to explain it, it just sounds a little strange. He asks questions like, "If you had all of the money you needed, and you could work any job where money wasn't an object, what would you pick? Like, a lumber jack or something?"

Honestly, 'lumber jack' would be WAY on down the list. But not as far down the list as something that involved the hygiene of others, such as being a masseuse or some sort of bikini waxer or something gross like that. I couldn't do foot massages or clean people's teeth. That is disgusting. I hate it when people have thick, yellow toenails. Or thick, yellow teeth, for that matter.

Who knew that I could write so much about nothing?
