Things inside my head

Today, being that I am trying to eat better and spend less money on gas/food, I ate in our lunch room. Gotta love lean cuisines Our lunch room is a very interesting place. Its a place where VP's and forklift operators get to mingle with one another. Its a place where, the small 12" tv projects shows like "who wants to be a millionaire" and "tmz". It always strikes me as amusing to see "tmz" on being that the guy to girl ratio at my work is 15 to 1. It's a place where you really never want to talk about the real issues plaguing our american society rather a place where you want to discuss your grandchildren or in some cases your pet's eating habits or sports. So like I said I was eating in the lunch room perusing paint samples when two of our warehouse workers began talking about politics. Oh this is going to be bad I thought to myself. Work and political ideals, no good. I try to pretend I am not listening, but of course everyone in the lunch room is listening so how could I not. So other people join in and everyone is talking about the debates blah blah blah. "Lisa, what to do you think? Who are you going to vote for?" Alfredo, one of the production guys, asks me. "Um what, oh I am not listening sorry just trying to pick out paint samples..." End of story, well my part anyway. Sometimes I think if people where to listen to the thoughts going in my head they would be horrified or just think I was kidding around. I am certainly glad God designed our bodies the way He did. Imagine thinking something and not having control of your thoughts turning into audible words. I think if this were to occur I would a) be killed on sight b) spit on c) be deported to Iran (just to teach me a lesson). I would tell you all reading this what I was thinking at the time but then I don't really want to get in trouble for my uncensored thoughts.
