Daily Update

One thing that I still wanted to mention about Sara being in the hospital; I don't remember talking about it at all. It happend this last tuesday, so its kind of old news, but still worth saying. So I get a message on tuesday morning from emWin as I'm on my way to work. At first I wasn't anxious to answer because whoever called, phoned me at the unheard of hour of 7:30am. It turns out that Sara went to the ER. So I'm at work, I text Em about SC. We converse briefly about stuff, and I determine that I will go over and visit at lunch time. It worked out for me last week anyway. So 10 minutes later I start feeling really guilty about not going over immediately. I mean, what if they needed someone to yell at nurses and doctors?! I suppress my guilt for another 10, but it overcame me so i took a super early lunch break and went over. Em was super tired, and Sara was drugged out of her mind. I've never seen a girl happy to see me before, it was interesting. We chatted about stuff for a little bit as she sat proudly upon her hospital thrown like Cleopatra of Egypt.

In another forgetful moment, I wanted to mention another thing from the forth of July. A few of us were sitting around the hearth, chatting about this and that. With the topic at hand, Kristen is describing some situation where a girl received flowers and how much that girl loved them. I, not knowing about flowers, questioned why someone would be so thrilled with something that is usually overpriced, beautiful for maybe 3 days, then whithers and dies. I think at that point her and her girl friends wanted to strangle me. She then described it in a way that guys can understand; she said "getting flowers for a girl is like a guy receiving football tickets." I then immediately respond "wait, girls like flowers that much?" It was an epiphany, I now know how Buddha felt at his moment of enlightenment. I think KA felt accomplished in getting her point across. Flowers make so much sense now.

It takes a little more to make a champion, and today I gave that little more. I went running today. And yes, I ran like a champion. Not the good ol' boy, pat you on the back kind, the real dedicated masterful kind. I made it around in 16:43. thats right, a stunning feat of the likes we've never seen before. I started out a little slow, only to build up the physical demand necessary to overcome adversity. Today I was the great leopard; no, they are to slow, a Lion, the great African Panthera leo who can over come his prey in a single bound, who started with a slow gallop, then moved quickly for the kill. I spend the first half of the race dodging trees and
rocks and such, but I soon sped up to a speed which let me ignore such distractions from my goal. I even started growling at people, just to let them know what I was up to. To bad the real KA couldn't have been there to see it. She had to take the night off due to some sort of 'big deal' going down with the mob. So she sent a stunt double in her place, it kind of looked like her, but when you looked closely I could tell it wasn't. I'm not positive but I heard the stunt double say something about someone messing up a big shipment of 'supplies' and she and the Hot-girl hit-squad had to go 'sort things out' at the port, if you know what I mean. After finishing the first lap I thought it would be the best victory lap ever if I was to go around again, like I normally do, but this time I was a little worried about the Replacement girl. I didn't see her by the beginning of my second lap, and I hesitated to just leave her on this violent and foreign track all alone. I even asked I The Pervie dude wasn't there again, thats two weeks now. The cops must have chased him away.

After running I spoke with Josh who was going to Chili's up in the village. Hmmm, OK. I didn't have to think about it long. It was someone's birthday. It was good.

We then decided to go and see Transformers, with an exclusive crowd. When we got there it was sold out so we saw Die Hard instead. It was super good. I originally thought it would be very mediocre, but it was very action backed, sure some unbelievable stuff, but thats to be expected.

I'm listening to NOFX right now.
