Wowza

I'm running a marathon in  20 hours. Crazy.


Thursday, June 22, 2006

Hmm...I haven't posted in awhile. I'd say I do about one post per month. Guess that's just the way I roll. I haven't done much this summer besides working and now running. I work at a place called Cole Hardwood. It's a lumber factory where I sort, stack, and move wood from one part of the factory to another. It comes down a conveyer belt in random sizes after the bad parts of it have been chopped out  and I sort it by size, stack it onto pallets, and yeah...move it to "the molder", and I'm not exactly sure what happens to it after that. Now this week, I have been working with another college girl and we're not exactly the fastest combo since we haven't been working there for 10 years like everyone else....but we got put on one of the faster lines for some good reason. Today there were 3 people feeding wood into the conveyer belt and only the 2 of us catching the wood, and let me tell you, it was nuts. Wood was piling up and falling onto the floor and I was rrreeeeaaaalll frustrated. I made a point not to smile at the people feeding the wood into the belt. That's pretty rude of me I'm sure. Maybe I just wanted them to see my frustration whilst they were down there talking away and let them know we could use some help. Eventually one of them came down to help for like...5 minutes. Probably because my not smiling at her was effective. Days like today make me really dislike the factory (oh...it gets ridiculously hot in there too), but all in all it hasn't been so bad. I've made a couple friends and i'm making some money too.

And running. I'm training for a marathon in October.  It's been rough at times, mainly because I've never been too terribly fond of running really. I never ran on any kind of a team or anything. In fact, on the first day of training, I ran 3 miles, and that was the most I've ever run at one time in my life. It was pretty stupid of me to not have been working up to that 3 mile run before I had to do it, but alas, I was able to do it and that was encouraging. All this running hasn't been as bad as I thought it would be, and I'm beginning to enjoy it. It's also forcing me to get in shape...so that's good too. So....thank you to the way cool people who convinced me to sign up for the marathon! I just wish I could run with you more than what I'm able to do. Running alone is no fun.

Alrighty, that's all for now. I'm off to run!

   I'm at home right now, and I'm bored. I went to a drumline competition today AFTER eating with with my roomate Katie's parents. I love them :) Katie wasn't even with us...haha...The drumline competition was at Ben Davis and Katie's house is like...5 minutes from there, so she called her parents up and asked if they'd cook dinner for me, and they did. It was great. So yes, then the competition. I really just went to see I-2...the group johnny louks is in...but i watched some others as well. And then I decided to try and find where I-2 was practicing. It took about 20 minutes or so, but I found them! And then I watched them compete and it was awesome. I just like to watch drumlines. I wish I would have done that in high school. Ah well....

Umm....this is quite a boring post. What can I do to spice it up a bit? How bout some Jack Handy quotes. These things NEVER fail to make me laugh.

 

If I could be a bird, I'd be a Flying Purple People Eater because then people would sing about me and I could fly down and eat them because I hate that song.

Instead of studying for finals, what about just going to the Bahamas and catching some rays? Maybe you'll flunk, but you might have flunked anyway; that's my point.

If you want to be the most popular person in your class, whenever the professor pauses in his lecture, just let out a big snort and say "How do you figger that!" real loud. Then lean back and sort of smirk.

If you work on a lobster boat, sneaking up behind people and pinching them is probably a joke that gets old real fast.

When this girl at the art museum asked me whom I liked better, Monet or Manet, I said, "I like mayonnaise." She just stared at me, so I said it again, louder. Then she left. I guess she went to try to find some mayonnaise for me.

Probably the saddest thing you'll ever see is a mosquito sucking on a mummy. Forget it, little friend.

When you're riding in a time machine way far into the future, don't stick your elbow out the window, or it'll turn into a fossil.

 

That's enough for now :) I don't think many people find these things as humorous as I do, but that's alright with me! :) Hokay...I'm going to go watch Myth busters :)
