So this doesnt happen too often
I woke up yesterday morning with my throat a litle soar... no big deal
Today, my lymph nodes are swollen so badly I can barely speak or swallow. COuld there be bacteria back there? I'd love to find out but everytime I try to move my tongue it triggers my gag reflex.
Any of you bio/med kids want to do a throat culture for me?
Maybe I should consider that this is all comming to fruition on 6/6/06. Hmmmmmm

Today (despite some upsetting events) was almost the perfect day.
I spent almost the entire day with Kyle, Em, et al shooting super soakers and slingshotting water baloons. A little offroading happened in there somewhere, too.
However, the rockcrawling jeep died. On an excursion of playful intent, me kyle and Em went to pick up the rockcrawler. I got about a mile with it and boom... the engine seized up. It's not all so bad, because this just the opportunity to finaly break down and get a mustang 5.0 engine like he's been wanting to and dropping it in. C'est la vie.
The cookout was a blast. The food was great, the people were awesome, it was just good times. We had an awesome water fight. Duel wielding is the way to go!
I got to hang out with Em quite a bit. Always a good time. I really enjoy haning out with her, she's an incredibly sweet and just generally good girl. I can't say a bad thing about her, and I doubt anyone else could either. I really am starting to look forward to seeing her.
I played guitar for her and some of the other people around for a while, and I think I built a larger fan base hehe.
After all of that I had to meet up with Chris and his dad to tow the other jeep back to my uncle's. A sad time indeed.
After I got there my uncle showed up. We sat out on the front porch of his house out in the country, with our trucks and jeeps all around the property. My nephew had this awesome radio controlled jeep with a real lift kit and working suspension. I'd never seen an RC car with a transfer case before, and now I feel my life is one step closer to complete hehe.
We sat staring at the stars drinking a beer and having a cigar. We talked about life and plans and direction and everything you could think of. My uncle Paul is a pretty cool guy. He and my aunt robyn always seem to look out for me and my best interest. Usually the advice they give is sound and tonight that held true.
I've got school, and I've made leaps in my career, I think it's time I make my 10 year plan. Not necessarily a detailed agenda for things I want to accomplish, but mroe of a general concept for where I'd like to be by 30.
I have some pondering to do.

I don't like my friends being put in a position where they feel they have to choose who they hang out with and when because some people choose to hang on to meaningless anger.
I wouldn't let you ruin my fun or evening, so why be so hateful as too feel even being around me would ruin your's?
It's been almost 2 and a half years... get over it... and grow up. You don't have to get along with me, you don't even have to socialize with me. But, at least be adult enough to think of how uncomfortable your choosing to make our friends by acting this way when I'm even brought up. Until you do, I'll continue to be the bigger person by going out of my way and changing my plans to accommodate your concern of discomfort.
If this is too much to ask, then I suggest setting up a calendar for each of our mutual friends and scheduling time in advance to spend with them, and involve ourselves in events. This should eliminate any concern or fear of accidently almost running into each other somewhere in a crowd of 10 or more other people so as that we might have to actually see one another as we turn to get something to drink.
Please... don't make all of this a regular problem. Think what you want of me, but please don't drag our friends into the middle of all of it.

Sat, May 20 06 12:50 - I'm so weird
|
I had a dream last night that had something to do with being at hamilton high at a red's game. Everyone was there, and I went to leave in the middle of the game through this pub that was inside the new fine art's wing. They were grilling all of these mets and brats and big red smokies and asking me if I wanted some, and I was all "No way! I've already got my own hot dog"
So when I get outside I realise I'm holding a 6 foot long hotdog covered perfectly in ketchup and mustard. You know what I mean.... someone put the K&M on there and turned the hotdog a couple of times to get it all the way around it in the bun, every inch more delciously soaked thant he last.
Unfortunately..... I only got about a foot into it before I woke up.
On a completely unrelated note, I woke up with a dead man next to me who appearently had been bleeding from his crotchel area. I'm not sure what that was all about.
current mood:  groggy

Sun, May 14 06 03:36 - What a waste!
|
So yesterday I got home from work around 6:30. I pormptly fell asleep on my couch and didn't wake up until 12:30. I went to steak n' shake, ate, came home and went back to bed.
Got up this morning and went to Columbus. I started reading Da Vinci Code during the car ride. Ate some food, hung out with the Koehlers/Freulers/ et al, and had a few beers with them. Read some more on the car ride back, then sat on the couch waiting on Liesl to see if she was going to watch Blazing Saddles with me since we had neither one seen it all the way through.
Again, I hit the couch at 6:30 and promptly fell asleep until 12:30. WTF-cakes?!?!
I wasted two perfectly good weekend nights... SLEEPING!!! Why have I been so tired lately?!
So yeah, 3 hours, some chicken strips, and blazing saddles later I'm wide awake. I need to get some sleep so I can get up for church in the morning, but at the amount I've slept so far this weekend, I could probably stay up until Tuesday.
Anyone want to do anything tomorow afternoon? Call me and let me know what's up. I don't want to waste everyday this weekend.
current mood:  delicious

Managing your life is hard.
Having to be financialy responsible is harder.
Accepting the fact that there really are severe consequences to your actions is near impossible until you've faced them.
Fearing for your job is stressful and depressing.
Facing all of it alone is discouraging.
I still aven't figured out how to balance the two halves of my life. I'm either financial stable or how a healthy social life. Never both.
I don't get all of this

Disney was the happiest mplace on earth.To sumize... we were there for 14h hours, and there were two planned disney magic moments. One guy proposed on the stage for insiana jones in front of five thousand people. Another guy planned an entire day of stuff to intentionally go wrong, so he could have the entire staff at a restaraunt tell her about the day and have a huge celebration. It was amazing... and we never waited more than 10 mins for anything.
We drove to daytona which is where we are now. This trip is only getting better. We got in at 11pm, and met up with a BUNCH of chris's friends and some new ones from NY. We wound up chilling on the beach for a while, chris went swimming.... and it's completely beautiful here. This was an awesome idea.
Time to go play crowd control with party people outside my room. I'm so effing tired
current mood:  relaxed

9:06am and we're in White Springs Florida. Bad-ass.
I feel like Chuck Norris climbed in the car while we were doing 80 through georgia and rubbed his beard against my ass. We've been in this car for 87 years and counting.
However, I feel this really is a Bob-Lo repeat trip. It rained so bad we couldn't see 10 feet in front of the car from the time we left almost all the way through georgia. It was nuts. On top of that, a red yukon with michigan plates followed us all the way through tennessee. AND... again I am the only person involved in the excursion who is over 18. Wtf am I thinking?! FUN! That's what.
2 hours to orlando, then some sleep. I was super excitied about seeing daylight driving into FL... it felt like it had been dark my entire life.
We managed to only make 2 potty stops and a mandatory waffle house on a road trip stop at like 4AM. It turns out there's a waffle house off of every exit in GA. They know what's going on.
Chris drove just into GA, then I took over and got us into FL while everyone else slept. That is the longest state in the history of the world. Fuck.
Plans for today: None - best way to start it
Disney world tomorrow, then beaching and partying it up all week with some moderate SCUBA-ing. w0000!
