Letting Old Wounds Fester

Ever since I was a kid, I have had problems with my legs hurting at night. Usually after dark, one of my knees would become incredibly sore, and the longer I would stay awake, more of my legs would fall victim to the pain. I've lived with this for all my life, so its no surprise when it happens.

Its just really inconvenient when I have things I need to do,

As soon as I got to work for my evening shift today, my legs were consumed by the ache. This did not have a positive effect on my mood.

Do you know what else made my mood worse?

Incompetent coworkers, that's what.

But I'm not going to waste my time complaining about how frustrated I am. Instead, I want to remind myself of the beautiful weather I saw from inside this prison I call work.

After my lunch shift was over, I went home while I waited to meet with a friend who made a surprise visit the town. The city was surrounded by storm clouds that had erupted from the mountains. By the time I made it back to work, it had started raining. The sun was just below the clouds, which made the rain that much more vibrant. All outside, the sky was tinted yellow as the rain poured down. There was a brief period when the rain slowed, only for it to drown the city seconds later.

I was mesmerized by the view.

If we weren't in the middle of the dinner rush, I would have taken a picture or two.

It helped me forget about how irritated I was with my coworker. However, my frustration returned to me when business died down and I was left to be on my own more and more.

I hope tomorrow is a little better, but for now, I believe the boys over at Achievement Hunter said something about a Minecraft update... I know what I'm doing tonight.
