woe and whoo!

(Cooper looks like I wanted to last nite...and tonite...and, really, for about the next week if you want to know the truth. Everyone knows that the only thing that cures being upset is drinking...and buying expensive things. Thankfully, I didn't have to choose just one...)

My goodness things can get weird sometimes! At least I bought a new car to make it better. I don't really understand how being personable is a liability. You would think that, unlike people who collect chewed gum or baseball cards, that someone who collects people would be regarded w/some kind of appreciation, grudging or not. Instead, it seems like its a recipe for some sort of horribly bitter and slightly salty muffin. A pain muffin no less! It seems to me that if you are going to explain the merits of, say, a tractor, that you would be inclined to ride the damn thing home and tool around the yard for a bit. I guess thats just me tho. I got so confused when she said that she liked the tractor...had never seen such a nice tractor...would be crazy not to want to keep the tractor around. Even to the point of saying how much she would regret trading the tractor in for a new model. I guess thats the way of things tho. Sometimes it doesn't matter how much you like something. In the end, it can just be too expensive for you to keep around. Whether its because it costs too much money or too much time or gives you a headache on a regular basis or sleeps w/your sister in law (which is quite a feat...remember, we are still talking about the merits of tractors here!) That part makes sense to me in a vague way. What I don't get is this...if you have the option to make things like tractors priorities in your life and you choose not to then why are you upset when you get rid of them? Believe me, tractors wanted things to work out...
