Okay, so. I wake up uber drowsy, half in a daze. Walk to the shower, start washing up. Then I slip on my soup and land right on my tail bone. That woke me up. Then I finish that, only to find I have no towel… So I air dry, which was kind of nice. Anyways, get ready, pack my lunch, eat breakfast and head to work. I get ten feet from where I parked and “pop” my tire goes. And I’m in the middle of essentially an ocean because it hasn’t stopped raining here in three days, and it is pouring now. I put my park break on jack the truck up and start taking the tire off. I get all the nuts off, start pulling on my tire and the truck starts moving and the jack gives out, almost crushing me, and screwing my rim. Note wedge tire. Now my park brake I discover is fucked. So I replace the tire, soaking wet and head to work, only to find out that a road has washed out. So hear I am… Life is golden :) optimism is key
Do you ever find yourself doing something at night that is completely unproductive, knowing full well that you need to get some shut eye and yet you don’t? That was me last night. I was text and on my Ipad till about 930, laid down to get some sleep, and bingo! My phone goes off. So I check it and it is a question from an old friend from school. Not the “hey, how are you?” But the “hey I need some advice and now” sort. Since I have bbm, I know that they know that I have read it. So I replied, and fully expected it to be over. This was not the case. The next thing I knew it was 12:40Am, and I wake up at 5:30 Am. So there I was knee deep into a nearly 3 hour conversation, this individual pouring their heart out to me and I need to cut them off. So I do and let them know that I will talk to them tomorrow (and I will msg them by ten to see how they are doing), but now my mind is racing… Trying to figure how they would find themselves in such a predicament. So next thing I know it is 2:00 am and I’m still wired. Needless to say, this will be a difficult day. The moral here is simply, take the bullet for a friend, because I’m sure by 10 today when I contact this individual, I’m sure that they will be in great spirits and my exhaustion will long be forgotten until I go back and read this.
Good day world, it has been some time since I have visited this quadrant of your existence. Why is it that the intangible aspects of you are the most easy to both become addicted to and forget about? Love Alex
Directly after taking this photo I sent this picture to Hummel because she didn’t believe that I had a dog. Once it was sent I couldn’t find Brodie (the dog)… And then I heard him in his kennel in the garage. He ran right there after the photo… Which was weird … So I looked around and saw a 600 pound black bear directly behind me!!! Luckily it was just eating some berries.
