| Why does it feel like I'm running out of time?
... stupid quarter-life crisis.

Here comes Tropical Storm IDA...
I'm on the Mississippi Coast, where that red area is. Wish us luck!

"Don't wonder why people go crazy.
Wonder why they don't.
In the face of all we can lose in a day...
In an instant...
Wonder what the hell it is that makes us hold it together."

| One of my co-workers' mother just passed away a couple of weeks ago.
One of my other co-workers' husband just passed away today due to cancer.
And my supervisor just found out she has cancer and has to go into surgery.
Yeah, I complain a lot about how I feel like I'm being taken advantaged of because I'm young and I'm not married and don't have kids. Or how I've been here longer than 90% of the current staff, and yet I'm one of the lowest paid employees.
But at least I still have my health, and the people I love still have theirs. And I'm thankful for that.
But I still feel for all the folks at my organization who are hurting right now. It's hard, and it's affecting all of us.

"We're heading in the right direction. I'm thinking we're beginning to rise up a little bit.
Now, people going to start to do like people around the world have done when we travel. There, they call it 'American music.' American music - that's what I'm hoping for.
When I first left home, I'd go places and, if nobody asked me where I was from, I'd never say. But then later on, I started to see the progress of the state [of Mississippi].
Seeing the people start to really pay attention to others. Be concerned about the feelings of others. I like that.
So today I love to get on Mount Everest and say, 'I'm from Mississippi, y'all!' Understand?"

I'm going to see to it that I see B.B. King perform live in his home state before I leave the South.
