Locomotion

The job is still being good to me. Despite being in the Human Resources department, I had the opportunity to operate some heavy machinery. Yep, cool stuff. The tomboy in me had no problem emerging at this moment in time.

My favourite piece of machinery to operate was the dozer. Of course, the excavator was really fun too, although it was a bit too complicated to learn in such a short period of time. Working long days and getting into a piece of equipment like the dozer made me really happy. The dozer was immediately gratifying. Seriously, how much fun is playing in the dirt? Really fun.

That reminds me, my Birdie is playing in the dirt an awful lot lately too. Actually, she's really into all things earthy... flowers, sand, wood, weeds and well, dirt. She's pretty keen on the whole exploring the earth scene. Having played in the dirt recently, I realize that the more I play with Birdie, the more we both let go of all the jazz that that we get hung up on daily.

So, I figure it's better to get dirty and play hard.
