Marta Marta Marta

MARTA is the mass transit train system in Atlanta. They just upgraded the ticketing system. It was totally free for about 6 weeks, no ticket kiosks, or need for tickets, just walk through the turnstiles ... crazy stupid. I have sworn off using Marta several times and I still find myself back on it... We have been ridiculed, and been made very uncomfortable and worried about our safety a number of times. But it continues to be the best option getting to and from the ATL airport. I take the train from Doraville to the Airport. The entire length of the Gold Line. The city (I guess) is trying to get MARTA a bit more orderly before the FIFA events in Atlanta this year. They have a lot of work to do. Although I saw a few more security/MARTA Police and quasi security foilks, the same crazy bullshit is still happening. It is home to people who want to stay cool or get warm during the operaing hours. It's not a place to be... its a place to travel. The unmedicated mentally ill folks se...

Well I am down in Florida. This is day two of the meeting. I decided to skip the golf/fishing excursions scheduled for tommorow. We are short handed. I will help rip the booths down and do what needs to be done.

I have a very active imagination. I have a tendancy to get carried away with thoughts about things I am doing right and wrong. Bonnie tells me to relax. Telling me to relax does little to help me relax, though. I seem to have a habit of thinking the worst out of situations sometimes. I think that perhaps I have always been that way. I think I may be well enough adjusted nowadays, that I notice these feelings more.

I will fly home Sunday Morning.
