Express feelings, eh. Okay. I'll vent before I go to sleep.

--I'm a bit frustrated with my girlfriend. I've always been raised to work hard, pay my bills, take care of my body, and treat people with respect. She's the opposite of me in every way. She quit her job, she's always in debt but she always wants to go do something that even people richer than us refrain from doing. She's gaining weight and always complains about how she's losing her shape (and does NOTHING to stop this from happening), and she always thinks that people are either a.) hating on her because they're jealous b.) hating on her because they are racist c.) hating on her because they don't think we should be together. In reality, NOBODY cares about her.

--I'm a little depressed because two guys from my team that I've known since my first day at my current job got fired due to some scandal (long story and I'm not even sure I'm allowed to talk about it.). It hasn't been the same going to work this past week. They say they're doing okay but I know that, if I were in the same position, I'd be a destroyed man.

--I don't know how to describe it but I feel a little inadequate lately. I've done some amazing things in my life. I've seen and done things that were impossible but I've given up a position of great respect for a position that offers much more money and much better benefits but, to the average person, I'm "just a security guard." If only I could get the respect I had as a cop and the money I have working with my current employer.

And those are my feelings. Good night.

I think you should go back being a cop. Tons of respect!
