I am now an employee of &lt;a href="http://www.coosaoutdoorcenter.com/"&gt;Coosa outdoor center&lt;/a&gt; which is a subsidiary of Southern Trails.  It has weird long hours but I'm pretty excited about being outside on the river all day....It's not lake martin but it's as close as I can get.  I'll be putting people in the river, giving safety talks, hauling around kayaks and canoes, going after people if need be and a little general mantinence.  Im pretty pumped and my first day went well.  (btw I can rent boats for free so if any of y'all would like to go rafting with me holler at me)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On to general life.....I'm in an odd place right now....I have everything under control.  This is something that doesnt happen very often.  I mean everything has been going very well.  I'm doing extremely well in my summer classes (I've got the highest grade in my music theory class), I have a job now that is fun and pays well, things are great with parents and friends, and heck I've even lost 6 pounds.  I'm going to be honest.....I don't like it.  I thrive under pressure and I just feel like I am floating right now.  I feel like I'm just waiting for my chance to do something big.  Maybe I need to do something, maybe i need to make it happen myself, but I can't help but think there is something missing......there is one more piece to this puzzle and I dont know what it is.&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10155091-115042100822554932?l=ckratzer.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ckratzer.blogspot.com/feeds/115042100822554932/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10155091&amp;postID=115042100822554932' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10155091/posts/default/115042100822554932'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10155091/posts/default/115042100822554932'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ckratzer.blogspot.com/2006/06/mighty-coosa.html' title='The mighty Coosa'/><author><name>Kratzer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05661770468582821432</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/169/1943/640/Picture%20001.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10155091.post-115018018627688069</id><published>2006-06-12T22:32:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-06-12T23:29:46.293-07:00</updated><title type='text'>tunnel vision</title><content type='html'>Summer has been here for awhile now and its time to get around to really updating the blog. I'm going to do something I don't like to do. I'm going to discuss some personal issues. Why can't people see the big picture. People get so focused on what they think is right or "ideal" and they miss out on so much more. They miss the larger picture. Eventually your vision become so focused and that "larger picture" gets more and more blurred and soon you find yourself realizing you've gone to far and you've lost whats most important you. I dont even know how to say what I feel right now. I'm so angry. I need someone to understand and not be so focused on things that don't even matter in the long run......I need. I thought I could love you....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Dont turn your back&lt;br /&gt;And slam the door on me&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Its not as if this barricade&lt;br /&gt;Blocks the only road&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Its not as if youre all alone&lt;br /&gt;In wanting to explode&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Someone set a bad example&lt;br /&gt;Made surrender seem all right&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10155091-115018018627688069?l=ckratzer.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ckratzer.blogspot.com/feeds/115018018627688069/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10155091&amp;postID=115018018627688069' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10155091/posts/default/115018018627688069'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10155091/posts/default/115018018627688069'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ckratzer.blogspot.com/2006/06/tunnel-vision.html' title='tunnel vision'/><author><name>Kratzer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05661770468582821432</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/169/1943/640/Picture%20001.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10155091.post-114417025270985815</id><published>2006-04-04T09:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-04-04T10:04:12.726-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I think they are trying to tell you something....</title><content type='html'>I really dislike major league baseball.  Now there are multiple reasons for this but this steroid issue has turned me off even more.  At the head of all of these steroid allegations is home run hitter Barry Bonds.  Opening day was yesterday and the giants outfielder found out quite quckly what people thought of him, with one fan going so far as to thow a &lt;a href="http://today.reuters.com/news/newsarticle.aspx?type=sportsNews&amp;storyid=2006-04-04T135816Z_01_SP8794_RTRUKOC_0_US-BASEBALL-BONDS.xml&amp;rpc=22"&gt;syringe&lt;/a&gt; on the field.
