The Thing About Naps…

Monday, March 31st, 2008

Good Morning! Good Morning! Good Morning! Today has been one of the longest days I’ve had in quite a while. I took it upon myself to do a little fulfillment job for my mother stuffing DVD’s into a Tri-fold sleeve and folding them. Ten-thousand Five-hundred needed to be done by this morning. I picked them up on Tuesday or Wednesday. I didn’t do a good job pacing myself at all. Come Sunday night I still had several hours left of work to do, and it kept me up the entire night. I took a sleep break from 1:30-3:15, finished up at 8, slept until 9:45, dropped them off and went to work where I hardly made it until 2:00 when I went home to sleep more until 4:00, and now I’m here.

The thing about naps is, every time you wake up it feels like a new day, even though it’s the same day. It feels like I’ve had 3 mornings now, but it’s the same day, and only 5:30 to boot! So, I’m tired, my right hand has little sliver cuts all over it, I swear I have paper splinters under half my nails, I think my tonsils are swollen, my only relief being Ibuprofen and… yeah, that’s it. I’m tired, and I hurt. Bring on tomorrow!

Evicted

Thursday, March 27th, 2008

Yesterday morning, as a sign of aggression and racketeering, a Provo City Zoning Officer showed up at the house with a Provo Police Officer and threatened my room mate Jonathon with Criminal Charges if he did not tell them exactly how many people lived in the house; and he broke. Yesterday afternoon, all of us at the house were ’served’ with eviction notices of sorts telling us we had until April 9 to move out or face a fine of $25/day, not to exceed $2500. What crime did we commit? We put 7 people in a 7 bedroom house. Pretty Criminal eh? Yeah, that’s what I thought.

Go to Hel

Friday, March 21st, 2008

Nope, didn’t misspell that thank you very much. I was going through the pictures I took back in 2005 when I drove to Florida, and during that trip I came across some fun signs, so I’ve decided to post them below. Enjoy!

Hel-Mart
I’ve never been to Hel-Mart, but it certainly sounds like the hot place in town!

Eternity
This is in Missouri just before you cross the Mississippi into Illinois to go into Nauvoo, obviously targeted at the LDS travelers on their way to Nauvoo. This sign is right by the main highway. I loved it!

Stop
I don’t really know why I like this, other than it’s a portable stop sign. It just… sounds like fun.
