All scratched up and Bruised, Could of Died, but if I’d lost My Ducati’s I Would have been Pissed!

(Picture Note: The scratches have got worse by the night and there are a couple others but my app only allowed for 5 pics). 

Our manager wanted to do something nice and fun for us “Technical” team while some of our out of town employees were visiting this week. He threw some ideas out there and we all agreed to shoot the hooch was our choice for a workday outing. Nothing beats a day not in front of a computer screen, answering dumb questions all day, dealing with stupid work bitching, griping and banter and pushing busy work. 

All started out swimmingly. We had lunch, caught up and it was a beautiful day.  We get on the river and I’m soakin in the sun, relaxing and enjoying the gorgeous scenery on this peaceful river. Thinking why don’t I do this more often, the water felt great and this is my city. We have this in my city and why am I not taking advantage of this!?

There were about 11 of us on the trip and we were all linked up together. More than half way through our course we hit a rock…this wasn’t abnormal for there’s a lot of rocks in the Chattahoochee River and we went over many of them. This one however was different. I got stuck on the rock when everyone else kept moving forward making my tube to go up in the air dunking me in the water. This whole time I’m thinking, “oh shit where are my sunglasses”. I’m thinking I lost my sunglasses not worrying about how embarrassing this was and how I lost one of my flip-flops. The left side of my team immediately broke off from my tube where the right side stayed with me, one of them grabbing my shoe and making sure I was all right. “Yeah I’m alright, but where are my glasses!?”. Thank God they got caught it between two rocks and I found them. Close call. As well I was soaking wet for the entire drive home. Fun none the less and I’m not sorry any of it happened. Had I lost my oakleys I’d be singing a different tune TRUST in THAT!

I didn't realize it until I got home my back was in some pain. Come to look at it, I've got some gashes back there. The day has provided more of these wounds, on my legs and elbows. After thought, I could of seriously gotten injured! The river doesn’t seem so peaceful and calm anymore. 

Just a Thought

When people who don’t know how to dress tell me they like my outfit, I’m kind of offended. 

Damn the Man and the Gas People

So I’ve been noticing that the BP right outside my house is really cheap. Considering the Shell and the BP right up the road always being more expensive. You see this BP would be, for instance, $3.50 per gallon where the one literally right up the street would be $3.70 per gallon. I don’t understand why two gas stations of the same name would be that far off in price when they are basically right next to each other. 

I guess people caught on to the cheaper gas station because last night when I passed it, it was at $3.29 where the other ones were $3.37. I went out of my way this morning to get the cheapest gas and wouldn’t you know it went up to $3.69! I thought well this is usually the cheapest so I went ahead and got the gas. Well when I passed the other BP it was $3.37! W.T.F!?

This really angered me. I downloaded the gasbuddy app because I’ll be damned if I let that happen again. 

And Not a Damn Thing We Can Do About It

What is with all these celebrities fighting the hot? Jason Mraz, Jared Leto and even John Mayer.

So what, you live on an avocado farm or moved to Montana, that means you have to grow your hair out, wear hats that don’t do your hot justice, wear guy liner and paint your fingernails black? NO!

I know John has been suffering granuloma in his throat, which must be treated surgically and has resulted in canceled shows (thank you wiki), but still…suit up! That means cut the hair and take off the hat. The hat may work if you stopped FIGHTING THE HOTT!  Jordan Catalono, there is NO excuse for your fight. You’re hot and you just don’t want to be I suppose. As for Mr. A-Z, I guess I get it. You’re all bohemian and want to be “natural” and all that shit, but you’re hot! Why fight it?

In my google image search I was bombarded with hot pictures of the three. As well, I noticed they are all “J” named. Is this a coincidence?

Reasons I Love Facebook

Full on STALK mode! A covert method of investigating using facebook. Good for discovering a wealth of information about people you don’t actually know.

Being able to stalk people without having to hide behind bushes and being creepy (lets face it no matter how you stalk, it’s still creepy). Fb stalking comes in handy when you’re dating. I’ve done my fair share of fb stalking these past years. It’s like the world’s new background check. You google someone’s name and their fb page is the first thing that comes up.  

Weird Dreams Again Last Night

Last night I dreamt of my grandmother, Nanny. She had grown her hair out long, a little bit past her shoulders, and was smoking a cigarette. I tried to talk to her but I couldn’t without crying. She said, “You always cry when you talk to me” she looked mad or disappointed. I just thought, it’s because I miss my grandfather so much.

I was in a car with two members from The Quaildogs. We were listening to the radio and one of them was trying to pick a station. I heard the beginning of a song and said, “keep it here I like this song” and then we all realized it was them playing “Fine By Me”. We all started getting excited! So now that song has been stuck in my head all morning. Which is "fine by me", it’s my favorite.
