    Rave: got back on the wagon on jogging tonight. It hurt, but not that bad. It's the only way I seem to actually lose weight so I have to stick with it.

    Rant: But my arm, which I sunburned, apparently had dead skin on it. Now I have sweat bubbles all on my bicep; it looks diseased. Time to exfoliate!

    Rant? How do you tell a FWB/FB that despite their huge interest in you, you're not the least bit interested in seeing them again? This question is not entirely unrelated to my last post in this thread.

    Rave: After three nights of around 3 hours of sleep a night, I am curling up at 11 to watch Party Down and crash asleep for like 11 hours. Life is grand.

    Rave: 20/28 on electronics 2 exam, with average being a 15.5/28. I win.

    Rant: Lab report for same class was due yesterday, thought it was next week. Got a one-day extension and no sleep for my unorganized ass.

    RANT: Looking at furniture for the new house. As a lazy piece of shit I am tempted to blow the budget on the bed. Anyone have experience with Tempurpedic beds? Worth it?

    RAVE: Drugs! I've been trying to get some mushrooms forever, and I FINALLY got some. I'm not one of those people who tries to make himself feel cool by telling people about the drugs he does, but mushrooms are fucking awesome and I've only done them a few times. Have fun not watching the walls melt tonight, losers!

    Four to seven inches of snow.

    What the fuck, New England? We had spring in our grasp. Birds tweeting, pollen drifting, windows open--it was wonderful. It was 73º on FRIDAY!

    RANT: Over a foot of snow last night.

    RANT: The rental property decided not to clear the parking lot before I left for work so I got to shovel my way out of about 200 yards of snow.

    RAVE: Birthday lunch at work today.

    Rave: I ran on the Alter-G this morning! Running is an overstatement since it was about an 11-minute mile at 50-60% of my body weight, but I'm excited. After getting out of the cast 2 months ago and literally not being able to move my ankle a centimeter in any direction, I wondered if this day would ever come. Now my "bad" ankle is more stable than the good one. My OS tightened the SHIT out of my ligaments. I can't wait until I can run outside.

    Rant: Every time I add on something like that I feel things popping and releasing inside my ankle for the first few minutes. It never fails to give me the creeps and make me want to throw up. It feels gross.

    Rant: You know how when you go drinking (in my case, happy hour yesterday), but you don't get drunk, and the next day you are lethargic but not hung over? Yeah, that's me today. It sucks.

    Rave: I think I MAY have found a beach house for our trip to LA.

    THE END TIMES ARE NIGH!!!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!

    So here in Ohio there are major storms projected for the rest of the day into the evening, and I have to say I'm impressed with the first act. When the clouds started rolling in I closed all my windows and pulled the car inside (it was outside letting the tinted windows cure). No sooner than getting inside and shutting the garage door did I hear what sounded to be someone throwing shit at my house in large multitudes. I looked outside and saw the biggest amount of hail falling from the sky I've ever seen. It was raining marble sized hail for like 5 minutes. Here we are, 7 minutes after the hail started (I watched the clock) and the sun is shining and the rain has stopped.

    Fuck me.

    Luckily, I was able to don my redneck thinking cap and run outside to snag a handful without being shot in the head by God with an iceball.

    Tornado possibly coming later. Fun.

    Rave: Just booked a trip using a bunch of travel vouchers from my time share purchase and other miscellaneous ones I've received because of flight cancellations & other work travel hazards.

    A week in Sedona AZ rocking a Corvette, staying at a ridiculous spa with an all inclusive package, and flying first class all the way. Net cost: $0.00

    Rave: Double decker peanut butter, banana, fluff sandwich. After logging a 16 mile loop (on foot) in the hills today I deserve it.

    Rave: My four year old just told me I need to change my batteries, the ones in my back. I needed a laugh.

    Rant: On day four of a flu. I am just now able to keep down a piece of bread. I even took a prego test at the doc's today, you bastards made me wonder...


    Rave: It was negative.

    Rant: I've barely eaten any solid food for the past three days, and I am still having the worst shits ever. I have zero appetite. The mere thought of eating is making me want to puke, and my stomach is grumbling and feels like someone is squeezing it like they're twisting a wet towel.

    Rave: Job interview today, for another case management job (Left my old case management job a little over a year and a half ago). I not only nailed it, by the time I left she was willing to bend over backwards to get me to work there, including working around my full-time school schedule. She said the second interview was a formality to introduce me to her supervisor, and discuss salary and benefits. She really wanted to hire me, with the only obstacle being fitting my training and meetings around my school schedule.

    Rant: The interview only reminded me why I was so eager to leave my old job to begin with. Metric fucktons of paperwork, driving all over the place, and absolutely awful salary, and this time I don't even get the benefit of working in a school, as everything I'd be doing is home based. Honestly, I really don't WANT to take that job, but I'm not sure if I can get anything else. I'd really rather work retail at this point than this job.
