Ya got to Keep ya head up.

So I'm walking up the stairs of the prestigious Aspen about 15 mins ago on my way home from a long day at work and then the gym, and all of a sudden I hear a guy coming down the stairs say to me, "Hey, hold your head up.  Come on now buddy, the economy isn't that bad."

This gave me a nice little chuckle, and also kind of made me laugh for a few reasons.  The first of which being that it's kinda sad in a funny way that this tiny occurrence was one of the more interesting moments of my entire day.  It also cracked me up cause here I am, basically gimping my way up 2 flights of stairs (hey, it was a legs, back, biceps day at the gym, emphasis on the legs--don't ask me why I was walking the stairs when we have not one, not 2, but 3 elevators at our disposal...), kind of oblivious to the world, probably looking about 2 small steps away from a homeless man, and this guy thinks that the reason I look like such a ragamuffin is cause I'm depressed about the economy! (PS I just successfully used 'ragamuffin' in my blog and you haven't-burn.)  I could care less about the economy.  I make $8.36 an hour after taxes...like it matters.  Well, that's not really true at all (the $8.36 part is, the not caring, not so much), but at this particular moment in time, the economy was almost the farthest thing from what was actually on my mind (if I was going to cook egg whites or regular eggs for dinner and if it's socially acceptable to eat a can of green beans with my dinner of eggs...)

So anyway, I picked my head up, laughed, and went on my merry way down the longest hallway ever (think: redrum).  Now onto eggs and beans! mmmmmmm.....
