Rant: A 20 year old thinks their self aware. Shut up, drink, fuck and be merry and call me when your over 30 and MAYBE you've begun to understand who you are.
Rave: Sox game was awesome yesterday. Perfect ending after a great day with my dad. Rant: My father woke me up at 7:00 this morning to drive to NH with my truck to pick him up. Wouldn't say why but insisted I bring my truck. I really wish he would have discussed this with me YESTERDAY when we spent the entire day together. Rave: My dad bought himself a boat. After YEARS of talking about getting one and hemming and hawing about how much my mother would complain he finally bought himself something he really wanted. Rave: I've got access to a sweet 24ft Edgewater now.
In your fucking dreams. Rave: Salt lake city was awesome I may end up moving there. Rant: I need to figure out a Major for U of U. (Only a rant because I still dont know what I want to do with my life) Rave: It looks like the USA may qualify for the top 16. If our luck keeps up that is.
RAVE: Thank you Dremel with grout removal tool add-on. You've just saved me about 30 hours of back breaking manual labour by turning it into a couple of hour "hot knife through butter" exercise. I refuse to cheapen your joy by thinking of the amount of fine, powdery dust you'll be throwing up. RANT: Everything else in my life at the moment is shit. If the bit breaks on that Dremel, I think I'm gonna cry.
Rant: Stupid girl drama resurrected from 2007. Not a fan of the crazies. Rave: Got my dad a Big Green Egg for Father's Day. He seemed pretty stoked. Oh, and he brought me home a bottle of Maker's Mark. Glad he knows my taste in liquor AND pays for it.
Rave: Going to Montreal for June 26 - July 2 Rave: Going to see my Uncle while I'm there. He BBQs competitively and has said he'll be BBQing when I come over to see him and my Aunt. Rave: The Montreal jazz festival starts June 26 too!
Rant: Gotta stop waking up at 3 am and not falling back asleep. Rave: Sold the Z (again) tonight to a 40 year old firefighter. Guy is buying it as a gift to himself for turning 40. Made sure to get a deposit this time. The buyer for the STi is taking the car tomorrow. Knock on wood, but that should be the final hurdles to our year at the cottage. Rave: Into the "lasts" now. Last Sunday we have to leave the cottage, last Sunday night at the house, etc. We're actually going to pull this off.
Rant: Just heard that a good friend of mine I kinda lost touch with was killed Saturday night by a fuckin' drunk driver. He was the DD, the drunk driver ran a red light and hit him directly on the driver side door. The bitch drunk was uninjured. Angry, sad, don't really know what to do or think right now. FUCK.
Rant: Off to work this morning, I don't want to go because my boss is a fucking dick head. Good thing this job is done in 2 days, I don't think I could take him any longer. FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
I accidentally walked into the men's restroom on campus. It's so clean! Why are ladies' facilities so gnarly? Rave: It was an empty men's restroom. I don't want to see anybody from this school's junk!
RAVE: Spent Fathers Day floating down the Elk River drinking beer with the old man! RANT: Had to wake up at 6:00 so I could get to Scranton, AR for work! RANT: I'm too good at what I do and becuase of it, it's going to be a long week.
Rave: Eminem Takeover on Fuse. I was obsessed with him in high school but I rarely listen to rap anymore. Regardless, I'm currently downloading his new album.
Rant: For the past 7 hours today my life has been sit here and change a knob about 5 degrees every three to four minutes. I missed lunch and this room in freezing my extremities. Rave: Making 10.71 an hour for those 7 hours.
Rant: Ever rented a new refrigerator and had someone put big dents in it and take gouges out of the paint? The employee I fired on Saturday night drove our truck home from an event in Wisconsin without strapping anything down and the 6' grill we had in the back took a number on the fridge. I was told this when I came to work and we had to return the fridge before 4:00 today. Rave: I'm already experienced with Bondo and detail paint. I spent a couple hours on it using materials I grabbed from my own workshop and when we dropped it off, the rental guys didn't notice anything. Fuck. Yes. Here's to me for saving the company a whole lot of money and grief after a terrible weekend.
Rant: All my FWB are in relationships. Rave: Oh well, they're happy. Good for them. Rant: Well its just you and me again, hand.
Rave: Ate four grams of fresh home grown mushrooms (less than half a gram dry...a small dose) last night and tried to use Gimp to copy a smaller picture on top of a bigger one. Something that would take me 5 seconds normally. I failed. Horribly. I had tears streaming down my face from laughing at my utter ineptitude. Now I know how old people feel when they try to use a computer. Rant: More where that came from but they're so good on the grill with bleu cheese I wish they stayed fresh longer. Dry ones don't have quite the same kick.
Yes another post... Rant: Idiots on facebook who's status's are along the lines of "100K BARRELS OF OIL SPILLING A DAY, THANKS AMERICA!" Since the number (according to Reuters and BP) is much lower and obviously BP and America are the same thing. Fuck my generation.
RAVE: Did my first Open Mic Night tonight and didn't totally bomb. I didn't use my full four minutes but I got pretty close to it. I had twenty people there to support me so that was pretty cool. If the video thats on Facebook gets posted to YouTube, I'll post a link as I would love feedback. Note that it was my first time, and at least as far as this goes for first times I knew ahead of time that 4 minutes was all that was expected of me if ya know what I'm saying.
Rave: The Ellie Badge mirror I made turned out fan-fucking-tastic. Huge thanks to Decatur Dave for designing the logo, simply using some screenshots from the movie. Pictures: The bottle cap itself is just over 20" in diameter, made out of 1 1/2" Pine. All the little indents were done on a spindle sander and the round over was actually done by hand with a file (couldn't use a round over bit because of the chamfered sides)
