Blah..I feel horrible...

Tomorrow is work after a very long weekend, school for the kids..yes! Thursday is almost upon us, that is the day I take hubbie to the airport, highly convoluted ride into the heart of Minneapolis/St. Paul...so he can go back to Cali...then wait around to get the call that he is flying back here, then brave the free-ways in this cold to pick him up..I for one will be glad when all this stupid shit is over and done with but the amazing thig is that It could literally drag on and on at someone elce's whim..or at least for three years.

**Fact for you to ponder**

Social and economic costs of imprisonment vs. education and economic empowerment: Incarceration costs $25 to 58 thousand per year, versus $3000 to $14000 per year ($36 to $168 thousand for twelve years) of primary and secondary education.

**Another interesting fact**

9). How much does it cost per day to house an inmate or supervise a probationer or parolee in the community?

The average cost per day to house an inmate at the department's prisons was $44.93 in general fund dollars for fiscal year 2003 (which ended June 30, 2003). The average inmate cost per day at the community work centers is $31.34 in general fund dollars. The average offender cost per day for someone on probation or parole is $3.50. I got that fact from this website:

Thats quite alot of money. 114391.00 for one year for one prisoner.

There has been no break in the Duplex, Susie Triumverate saga...

Are you like me where you try to play shit off, and a situation comes up lets say a fight or someone wrongs you and you find that it has consumed you in such a way, yet you tell no one..or hardly anyone about this...this mental thing you are doing, this whole thinking about every little angle of the fight, how they feel, are you being petty, are they at fault, are you, who started it, what did you do wrong, is there a pattern of bad behaviour on your own part or theirs? etc...and then you sit and wonder if other people are sitting around thinking about the situation just like you are? And you cant be sure they are or not? That is where I am at, and the kicker is I think this whole problem has caused me to loose a friendship with my ex boss...Who I do like, her drunken doorbell ringing acusations aside, she was alright, course i had never seen her drunk either. Next thing is...do I want to mend the fences..you know go over, say something like "Ok, I cant stand this whole thing..whatever this thing is..lets put our cards on the table, and try and work out what went wrong" or words to that effect...Is it weak to do that, has she concidered this? Do you want to hold the grudge, do I have to make a point? Is being right important, or is being the peacemaker better. Is being the grudge carrier all that it is cracked up to be?Please feel free to leave me a note if you have any uncolicited advice regarding this issue, and how you feel on it.
