No need to worry

So my dear mother asked me, "What's this deal with the hole in your hand?" The complete story is as follows:

As I was leaving work on Monday, I tryed to stop the door from slamming behind me and I was so successful that I got my finger stuck in the door. Now these are some seriously heavy metal doors. My nail immediately started to turn blue and hurt like nothing I can recall in recent memory. I tried to run it under cold water, but was unable to get the water cold enough. I felt like crying. I drove home and put ice on it just to numb it. I then called a nice lady at UHC Nurse-line, to make sure that I was doing the right things. She said that it just sounded like I would lose the nail in 2-3 weeks, but if I experienced trobbing pain and swelling and if my finger was hot, then I needed to go to a doctor. By Wed, I had all of the symptoms, so I went to the "doctor" ie, the internet, and found this

A hole

I now have a hole in my nail. I should become a doctor with my candle, needle, cotton ball and 70% rubbing alcohol. Would you trust me?

Please pardon the emptiness

There will be a lacking of posts for at least the next week due to an injury on one of my right hand digits. When the posts return, it means that I didn't need surgery.

And a note from Clair...

Here's Clair's latest bit of wisdom:

Smartest girl alive!

Strangeness

We all have that one person in our lives that will never do what you think he or she should do. In any given situation, you will expect one thing, and then 5 minutes later, you'll be left wondering, "What just happened?" My only hope for you is that when that 5 minutes hits you, you're not stranded in a strange city at 2 am waiting for a cab with people trying to hit on you and take you home. And my advice for all of those seniors out there... find jobs in herds. Be a sheep, move to Indy.

Picking up Girls

I went out with the Boy's coworkers last night. We did a little bar hopping, (and when I say a little, I mean a little... Officially we only hopped once) and the last bar we went to had awesome tater tots. I know Jackie is saying, "What the hell? There's no such thing as even close to good tater tots!" But they were by far the best tater tots that have ever touched my mouth. Hot, fresh, dipped in hot nacho cheese..... Ummm... my mouth is watering just thinking about it. However, I'm not so sure that it was the actual tater tot, or the fact that I had a bit too much to drink. At any rate, one of the guys was distributing these tater tots to hot chicks that were walking by.... my favorite quote from last night... "Yeah, she was really eyeing my tater tots."

RAHR!

Top Ten Reasons

Here are the Top Ten Reasons Why Audra should come live with me:

10. Minnesota has some good places for her to learn how to ski
9. She could teach the Minnesotians about real Southern Hospitality, not this "Minnesota Nice" shit
8. 672.12 miles closer to Utah
7. Columbo will have fun in the snow.
6. She would get to live with me! :)
5. Free Rent!
4. Fondue every night!
3. Crafting after work
2. We could start planning our flower shop
1. We would tear up the town!!!

Offer's still on the table!

To the high school boys standing outside JoAnn's

Yes, I did hear you call me ugly.
Yes, I did see you at Michael's.
Yes, I do think you're gay, especially for dressing alike.
And yes, your manhood could have been salvaged if you had moved 20 yards down to the Sportsmart to wait for your ride.

* For real men, Michael's and JoAnn's are both craft stores. You know, with girlie things.

Ha Ha FE, you've been mofoed!

As almost all engineering students fear, at the end of their senior year, we take the Fundamentals of Engineering exam. Well, I got a letter Saturday from the state of Indiana saying that passed it with a 74. Now, I have no idea if that's good or not, all I know is that I passed. I celebrated with a Snak Pak. The next question is, do I go on to get my PE??

SNAP!

DoubleSpeak

So as I was booking a flight on-line today, I noticed that Orbiz has a "Gay Travel" section. To preface the rest of this post, I have nothing against gays, lesbians, and bisexuals. I'm a very much "to each his/her own" and "whatever floats your boat" type of person. Now that's out of the way, I don't understand this. Homosexuals have been avocating equal rights, and that they just want to be treated like everyone else. So why do they get their own travel section? If they get a travel section, then I want one labeled, "Yuppie Travel." And while we're at it, I want a Yuppie Pride Parade. And I want to put a green oval on the back of my car, signifying my yuppieness. And in this gay travel section, do they get better discounts to places like Boston, New Hampshire and Hawaii? Do they actually check your sexual preference, or could I pose as a lesbian and get the trip to Hawaii half off? Do you think I could get discounted travel to Seattle?

Job Posting

I am willing to pay someone $50 to clean my apartment. Please submit your resume via the comment section. This job posting will close on Monday, and the work must be completed by Thursday. Please supply recommendations.
Thank you and good luck.

Spiderman 2

I went with Andrew to see this movie a couple of days ago. I thought it was an excellent movie.... it kinda brings you up to speed with what's going on in the world. Did you know that there is an elevated line through all of Manhanttan? And, if a professor ever asks you what the eigen values are, just answer "2.6 mV" And if your fusion reaction ever goes out of control, just dunk it in water.... no matter that if it's huge that it will cause the river to boil and evaporate and increase the ocean temperature about 10 degrees, killing many of the organisims that live there. I don't believe in suspension of disbelief.

Minnesotans suck

While trying to turn in my rent check...

I didn't have the little thingie that they gave me to get into the front door of the leasing office, so I thought, "I'll just go in through the pool area." So I walk over to the pool gate, and while I was there, fiddling with my keys, there were about 5 people inside the gate just watching me. I still couldn't get in after the sprinklers came on, so these people were just there watching me get wet and not getting into the pool area. Yet another example of why Minnesotans suck.

Excuse me! Would you like to take a survey?

Is it more important to like your job, or to like where you live?

Post your comment.

Will it ever end?

I don't think I will ever finish unpacking. It's been 8 days since I started, and I I think I have about 4 more days to go until everything is in it's place. I don't like unpacking, so it's very easy for me to get distracted and on to other things. As I am unpacking, I'm also doing lots of sorting. I realized that if I'm going to be moving a lot, I'm not going to want to pack and unpack things that aren't important to me. So if there's something you've had your eye on, let me know and I may be able to let it go. :)

As an update, I didn't ask anyone to the parade, I went alone, got rained on, took some pictures, walked a mile to my car, got lost in Uptown, and finally made it back to my comfee bed. I also got lost yesterday morning walking around my neighboorhood. It took me about an hour to find my way home. Story of my life.

A question

I'm going downtown tonight to see a parade, and I was faced with a dilemma. Do I go alone and try to enjoy it, or do I ask someone at work and risk rejection.

hmmm

RAHR!

Today was not a good day. Leave happy comments!

Voting Update

The "facts" about the presidential candidates.

Where did they go?

So, I noticed today. On any given day, I never see the following establishments:
McDonald's
Taco Bell
KFC
Wendy's
Burger King

I thought those were staples in this day and age. No wonder I have to cook every night. :)
