Hello,
I've noticed recently the increasing number of people going to rehab for whatever addiction they supposedly have. My question is, is rehab really the answer? There are so many people that choose that root to try and get themselves better. Most of the time though the program is only for thirty days. Now I know that it is said that you need thirty days to kill a habit but then there are so many of those same people that go right back to what they were doing the second they get out. So it's like is this proposed "solution" even really working? In my eyes thirty days is not nearly enough time to get a heroin addict off heroin. It is way to powerful of a drug to kill the addiction in such a short time and I'm sure that it isn't easy with other addictions either. On top of that, a lot of the people going to rehab, especially younger people, are only going because someone else wants them too. In order to change your life you have to want to change. You cannot force a person to do something that they don't really want to do. It will never work out.
So these people are paying hundreds if not thousands of dollars to go to a resort and/or spa like recovery center to try and "help" their addiction when a lot of the time the money and the thiry days is all for nothing. It is just like they went on a month long vacation.
People need to either find a more effective solution to the ridiculous drug problems out there or they just need to let people continue to use and eventually kill themselves. It is their choice and their problem. I don't want to sound unsympathetic towards people with an addiction but at the same time I am tired of letting those people affect my life in anyway. They do not bring good to me, only hurt and let downs.

Hey Hey,
So I have come to the conclusion that I hate snow. This is way too much for my liking and I just cannot wait until spring time.
My Valentine's Day was actually alright considering that I worked all day. I made good money for sure but it sucked that I did not have a valentine :(. I did not get chocolate or flowers from anyone. I know that it is not a real holiday and it's actually kind of stupid when you think about but I really like getting those things and I am pretty sure that a lot of the female population out there agrees with me. It is good to be reminded sometimes that you are appreciated and loved by others. So in the end Valentine's day is a good thing because it makes people feel better. Although this year some people must have gotten some real crappy gifts or something because it seemed like everyone out to eat were all kinds of moody and picky. At least it seemed people were more today then usual that's for sure.
You know what really does bother me about serving is the tips that some people leave and how rude people can be. It's like hello, who tips five dollars on an eighty dollar bill? It drives me nuts sometimes to have to put up with peoples pickiness about their food. I have so many outrageous stories about people within the past couple years working at a restaurant it's just ridiculous. I didn't even know people that rude existed! It's like if it's that much of a hassle for you to go out to eat and just relax and have a good time, then please just stay home because I defiantly do not feel like dealing with it.
It blows my mind that people would ever get that rude with the servers and cooks that handle their food in the first place. I mean God only knows what people could and probably do put in some peoples food. I don't even want to think about it. I personally haven't witnessed anything like that but I have heard stories and I just wouldn't even want to take the chance. People should think about that and be a little nicer when out to eat.

On my mind for the day

Hello everyone!
Who all was hoping the Saints would win the Superbowl?! I am a big Ravens fan so I was so excited to see the Colts finally loose. It was a close game but in all honesty I was kind of bored by it. There wasn't much action if you ask me. I wanted more interceptions, sacks, crazy touchdowns, or anything that would have spiced the game up a bit. All in all though I obviously cannot complain considering the team that I was rooting for actually won! Sorry to all you Colts fans.
Another thing that excites me about every Super bowl is all the amazing food there is to eat. I stuffed my face with everything from crab dip to meatballs to cheesecake. I feel like I have gained ten pounds in a couple hours but it was all totally worth it. I ate some at my house and then a lot more at my friends house. There's nothing like watching football and eating good food.
The last thing on my mind is the all the snow. What is up with all the snow?! I am not a winter fan at all. I like snow at Christmas time and then that's about it. After Christmas I am completely done with winter and I want spring to come as soon as possible. I hate the cold and I hate the snow with a passion so it would be my luck that this weekend we got 27 inches of it and on top of it we are supposed to get more this week! In addition to that the dumb little groundhog saw his shadow again which means at least six more weeks of winter. Now I'm not sure if it was just me but did anyone else notice that it was cloudy that day? How the hell did he see his shadow when the sun isn't even out? Ugh, I just want warm weather to come. I want to be outside without wearing a ton of clothes while still being cold. I want to be able to just get in my car and go, not have to wait for it to heat up so my hands don't freeze off. Of course, most importantly, I want to be at the beach and lay next to the wonderful ocean without a care or worry in the world. When will spring be here? Please, say it will be soon.
