Gym…

Well I went back to my normal gym today… Thankfully the dirty man wasn’t there. lol. However I did eat an ice cream bar after I was done. lol…. And I’m back down to 172 now, so I’ve lost 8 pounds… I’m wondering where it’s coming from because I don’t think the belly is getting any smaller yet!

So yeah, only 9 hours of sleep today. And I ate a minute steak. It was yummy, but I was too lazy to make potatos to go with it. Maybe tomorrow or something. I love mashed potatos… My grandma makes the best, well to tell you the truth, they’re actually MY mashed potatos when we go there and eat them. It’s the thing that I’m in charge of at her house. But her noodles make the mashed potatos even better… God I can’t wait tell August when I get to go back. I’m going to have her make me a big roast and noodles and just sit there and eat bowl after bowl of htem..

I’m also going to hit up Tylers Pharmacy and get a…. Uh oh, I can’t remember the name of those drinks… but either way, they’re only 25 cents and so good. That places was such a great part of my childhood. I love it there.. I’m going to take SO many pictures when I go there this summer. Good old small town Iowa. 🙂

Umm.. I called Andrew tonight, of course I got his voice mail. I cried… I also got an e-mail from Susan again, saying not to do anything stupid and to call her if I need to. She’s sucha great woman.

I also left my hours at 10pm, instead of 11 tonight… I thought it was 11 when I left, in fact I didn’t realize it was 10 tell I got to the gym and asked myself why the place was so damn busy! Gah. I could have watched another episode of QaF! Blasted. Oh well.

I’m kind of annoyed at work. I think I’ve mentioned it before, but I’m re-writing large parts of the timesheet. Well, I added this status report thing, and then it got changed and now it’s being changed BACK to the way I had it the first time. So annoying. It’s like, hello! Let’s think things through here. Blah. Also, since I got to the gym an hour early, I also came in an hour early, and I was going to spend that hour writing this updae and doing other random things for myself… but it was spent instead fixing a problem that didn’t exist.

I got a job offer today too. I had been interviewing with this company in DM, however when they sent me the offer they changed it from a fulltime job to an 8 week contract job in italy or something random like that. I had to say no.

Mmmm, mashed potatos and noodles!

Laters all.

Nasty Old Black Man!

Gah, so this weekend has been hella crazy.

Friday Peter came over and hung out with me for like 2 hours. I’m not sure if he came over to just come over and hang, or if his only motivation was to buy alcohol off of me… The good thing though is that he did forget to buy it off of me when he left, but he called me like 2 hours later asking if he could come back over to buy it then. He was a nice guy and all, and I had a good time. I can’t say if he did or not. he was a bit hard to read. I enjoyed his company and I was hoping that maybe we could be friends, but I’m not sure if that’s possible now… as I’ve found his LJ and it seems he is quite the pot head… And well, we all know my feelings on that.

In other news, I’m still waiting to hang out with Myke… I’m very interested in doing so because he seems like a very nice person, but then again, he could trun out to be another peter, or some such. He was supposed to come over Friday too, but cancelled to go to a frat party. It’s understandalbe, I’m nothing exciting.

I’ve also decided that I hate people here even more then the other day…Because not only are they stuck up materialistic, but the ones that claim they aren’t really ARE! Such as… today I was talking to this guy who claims he’s not… but then he was talking about this date, and how he couldn’t decide if he should take the yellow porsche, the tan SUV or the red convertable mercedes! I’m like, hello… you’re stupid and materialistic….

Lets see, when I go on a date I have to choose from… OH WAIT! I only have ONE CAR!

Anyways, in GOOD news… Andrew was here last night. IT was great to see him again. I’m being forced to write about what I feel about how our relationship should go and such… So here goes…

I love Andrew, and I probably always will. But I’m not wanting to do another long distance relationship where we have no idea if I’m going to get a job back in iowa or not… and then in 2 years he’s going to be moving again to go to grad school. So then I’d have to move YET AGAIN. I’m just not sure if I’m ready for that… AS much as I hate to say it, I think the best thing for right now is to just stay close friends and continue to talk as much as we can. And if things are supposed to work out, we’ll make it work.

I’ve deletetd my adam4adam account.

I just found out that the project I was supposed to do tonight to keep me busy has been postponed another week… excellent. I have nothing to do again!

Night all.

Gone

Well… Andrew and I said our goodbyes tonight…

It wasn’t supposed to be like this at all. And I hate that I fucked it all up. This is all my fault. I only wish that I knew where things could be going in the next few months now.

I’m alone here now. Completly alone in this state. I have no reason to stay here any more.

Now if only those fucking headhunters that call me every week were from Iowa and not California. If only Krell would hire a fulltime Hardware person, instead of all those fucking Coders.

In good news however, I purchased my flights back to Iowa for August trip. I’ll be there from Aug 11-21, I’m flying into Omaha, and either Jed or my Grandparents are going to pick me up. I’ll spend Thursday night-Sunday in Lenox, and then go up to PC for the rest of the week. Then Sunday the 21st my mom and I are going to go visit my Gma in Carrol and then head on out to OMA for my flight back.

What If.

So I was watching I Love Lucy today, and was thinking… what if I really did live back in that time period? you know the 50’s and 60’s? What would I do for a living, I mean I couldn’t have been a computer guy like I am now. So what is it that I would have done? Perhaps a doctor, or a farmer, or a who knows what. Would I have even gone to college. Would I still be living in Iowa, or would I have moved away. It’s just so strange to think about.

Then I got to thinking, what if we are all reincarnated. But what if it happened and we KEPT all our past knowledge from life. I mean, what if you were a tree… And you gained all this knowledge that trees gain… Do they gain anything, or would the knowledge just be of how to grow, and that sort of thing? And then you were reincarnated as a dog or monkey or something. And then! You’d be a monkey with the knowledge of a tree, and you’d gain the knowledge of a monkey! And then after years and years, you were a human. Would you then be able to TALK to monkeys, and dogs and whatever else you had been in past lifes? Or what!

And what if you were a human and then went back to being a monkey. Then you’d be a monkey with whatever knowledge you got while being a human, and you’d be able to communicate with them. Or would you just rather pretend to not know that and live life as a “monkey”!

Or what if, you had in apast life been some great person, such as Einstien or Newton or Washington! And you then had all that knowledge. Would our minds be able to hold all that additional thinking. What would you think if you had once been washington and now you’re bush?! Or some such thing like that.

And the opposite could happen too… What if you were a murder, or hitler! and then you were reincarnated. Would you then be liable for what hitler did? Since you have all his knowledge? I mean, it’s a cool idea, right?!

But then our world would be full of super geniouses (sp) and the like, and maybe by now we would be able to time travel or something!lol

Ok, so really. What did I do this weekend? Not much. Friday night I worked. 8 hours. Blah. Lots of problems too. I had to call both SA’s and Ben was pissed that I woke him up. Oh well.

Saturday I slept, then got up, went to the pool and tanned/swam. That was fun. Didn’t do much else all day.

Sunday, more of the same.

Night all.
