I’ve been pondering the point of rain. Rain makes things grow, right? Living things need water to survive. I drink water. If I didn’t drink water I would die. But I won’t shrivel up and turn brown if I don’t drink any. I just die. And drinking water doesn’t make me grow. I’m all grown up, stuck in this period of no more growing. I am slowly going to wilt and die, even if I drink lots and lots of water. Why do trees die? They die because we chop them down and make paper, but if we didn’t they would never die unless they ran out of water. So why do I have to die, even if I never run out of water?
Anyways, here’s what is going on in my exciting life. New Years came and went. I went out with Julie, Nate, and Nate’s two friends Bill and Steve. Pictures will be up shortly. I think Julie did a good job of summing things up, so you can read about it if you wish. I will supply the pictures, as soon as I have enough time, but picking my nose and taking a shower are the top two things on my list that I need to accomplish first today.
I already posted my NY resolutions, so what else can we talk about? Well on New Years Day, Todd and I took our regular trip to Wal Mart and bought some necessities, including the deluxe edition of Monopoly. We also ate at my favorite place, Long John Silvers! I’m not really being sarcastic, I love LJS! We spent New Years evening competing in a tournament of Monopoly. The first game went on for over two hours, until I finally kicked his butt and ended up with over $10,000. Todd was being a sore loser, complaining that I never landed on his stuff … but thats just the way it goes sometimes. He beat me on the second game, after like 30 minutes. I think I got the shaft on that game though.
Work has been sucking a big dick this week. There was a big event that nobody bothered to do anything about until last Monday. I think I already ranted about that. Yesterday was the day the event was taking place, and more than a few crisises came up. I’m glad its over. I’m doing absolutely NOTHING at work today. I spent the first half sitting there, staring blankly at the screen whilst sipping on coffee. I finally gave in to working on some expenses and billings, but other than that …. I’m doing nada today.
I making mad loot on my ING Direct Savings account. I get $10 for each person I refer. I posted a review on Epinions, and so far I have had 6 people ask me for referrals. Four of them have already signed up, so thats $40 bucks baby!
I rewarded myself … sort of, although I think it will reward me in the end, maybe. I bought another Cindy Crawford work-out video. I read that the first one had unsafe “moves” in it, that could lead to serious injury. I was in a lot of pain the first time I worked out with it … oh well. The second one is a DVD and was made a year later. Cindy Crawford kicks ass. She doesn’t wear leotards with a thong bathing suit like all those other workout whores. And she actually sweats and stuff. Another cool thing is that her personal trainer is in the video making her do the stuff, so its so much easier/more realistic than the dumb ones where like 40 girls stand on mats and dance around.
I’m so tired. I just want to sleep, and I know that I can’t wait until 5:00 because I will run home and fall asleep in my comfy monkey pants. Its so dreary and rainy today, which is probably why I’m so tired. I don’t think any amount of coffee is going to cure my rainy day blues today. Ughh.
Time to go back to working on nothing. Bye.
