Army Post Road

We'll start today off with a quote from the Simpsons:
“Woohoo! Beer Beer Beer! Bed Bed Bed!” Eloquent words of the sage Homer. “This is my sandbox. I'm not allowed to go in the deep end.” Ralph

I've tried to think of interesting or pithy things to talk about or say all day. And that was it.

Just kidding. But really, nothing interesting has gone on today. Work went along without any fireworks (other than the last two hours did not go by as fast as they usually do and needed too) and when I was done I bought a dozen Krispy Kremes with the thinking that Dad was picking me up and we were going to pick my grandpa up and the three of us would share them. Rather, my mom picked me up and we ate some doughtnuts on the way home. I fell asleep shortly after I got home, missed watching Star Trek (the highlight of my morning before I sleep and I slept through it) and woke up at 1. The dog and I communed for a while after I woke up and I've just been watching the news and cartoons since.

“Smithers, there's a rocket in my pocket.” “You don't have to tell me sir.”

I'm surprised that none of the restaurants I applied at have called me yet. I'm not particularly worried, since neither of my parents really think I should change jobs before I know whether I'm going to Ft Riley in April (which I think I may just be deluding myself if I begin to think I'm not) and if things begin to consistently go like they did last night, the job itself will be alright. And really, what would I do with a job that had more conventional hours? I wouldn't see my family much more than I do. Mom would probably be gone to work before I woke up every day anyway and she's usually in bed before I leave for work now so I probably see her as much as I would in any circumstance. And I may or may not see my dad any more than I do. I'd like to but it's ok how it is. And if I did have more time to socialize, what would I do with it? Hang out with Kelli every other, every third night and just spend money on Perkins or beer? If I had more time to go to Iowa City, I would probably only spend too much money at the bars anyway. It all sounds like self-consoling, doesn't it?

Yeah, that's all for now. I'm sure I'll be back in a little bit with more.
