When there is a storm, learn to dance in the rain.

Great advice, dad.

Today I got the call that I would not be considered on a job for which I had applied. Getting this job would have solved so many of my problems. Financially I would be out of debt in months, I would have been able to afford a new car, could afford to do jiu jitsu three times a week, could move out, save for college, etc. Unfortunately all of those problems will have to hang onto my back for a while longer.

Thankfully I have the best dad ever. He said the subject quote. I had to tell him me doing Jiu Jitsu is me dancing in the rain. It's amazing. I went to class feeling bummed about everything, rolled for an hour and a half, had some great rolls and now I feel a million times better. Not a worry in my mind. My only concern is when to wake up tomorrow and how much to drink. A lot or a little? Hmmm, gonna have to sit on that for awhile.

Until then,
enjoy your evening. Try to get drunk, laid or both. Whatever you do, make sure you are smiling.
