I finished working on that concrete sidewalk today. My back is all stiff now and my hands are blistered, but damn it, it's done. That shit was thick! I mean, I love breaking shit with a big sledge hammer, but that was ridiculous!
Oh, funny note. I applied at two more hospitals today. I felt pretty good about myself, smiling, talking to people. You know how some days you just feel like it's on? Yeah, today, it was on.
Until I came home and noticed that I had been walking around all day with a big dot of Clearasil on my forehead.
Wonderful.
Oh well, at least I'm done with the sidewalk.
Later, -T-
Oh, as promised, here's a picture of me working with the sledge hammer. I don't know what I was doing on that trailer though, I was working on the sidewalk! Silly digital cameras...
What's this? A mid-week UPDATE? Someone sure must have a lot of time on their hands...
Current Music: The AC is blasting cool air over my hot... naked... Woah! Where'd that come from? Today's Random Fact: The Eisenhower Interstate System requires that one mile in every five must be straight. These straight sections are usable as airstrips in times of war or other emergencies.
I swear, this is an actual text message sent to me today: "Dude, there's a sign here at Planned Parenthood that says 'Just say no to sex with Pro-Lifers!' Hahaha!"
So, I went golfing again yesterday (Monday). I shot better then I did last time, and I beat Brother E, so that was satisfying. I was also very clever (without the use of alcohol). We were driving in the cart, and he jumped off the path and went over a lot of bumps to take a shortcut. He laughed and said, "I take the road less traveled". So I started calling him Frost. Get it? He has blonde hair and he was quoting, oh never mind.
While I'm on the topic, here's a funny golf joke: "... Jack was first up in his foursome. Eyeing the ball, he swung his club and hooked his shot over the fence and down a road where the ball crashed through the windshield of an oncoming car. The startled driver lost control of his vehicle, and it spun into a parking lot and bounced off three cars. "Jack raced over to the crash scene and was relieved to find that no one was hurt. Almost immediately a policeman arrived and spotted Jack standing next to the crashed car eyeing his ball. "'Just what are you going to do about this?' demanded the policeman. "Jack looked up. 'Well, the first thing I'm going to do is change my grip.'"

This was an actual phone conversation between my dad and I a few weeks back. I was at a party the afternoon we took our final.
my dad: "Um, are you having sex right now?" me: "What? No." my dad: "Oh. Well, are you trying to?" me: "Oh yeah, of course."
We have a special relationship.
So yeah, I graduated and everything. Graduation's done, speech was given, and parties were attended. The works. Now boards are done and past, so you'd think I'd be working right? Wrong. I've found that Human Resource departments are quite possibly the slowest working things on the planet. I mean, come on! I applied a long time ago! Let's get this process moving along, shall we!
So, what have I been doing since I've got all this extra free time? Good question. Obviously I've been golfing some, but that costs money, and Frost is only going to pay for me for so long. So I've had to find other things to do that are free. Like break concrete. Seriously, I feel like a prison inmate, I've been breaking concrete with a sledge hammer. And the concrete is really f-ing thick. There's a story behind why and where, but that would take some of the mystery away. Maybe I'll get someone to snap a picture of me with their camera phone so I can post it, I know I look hilarious covered in sweat and dust with my bandana on. It's a good thing I'm not abnormal or anything...
Lyndz sent me this. Scroll down to where it says start the tour. I was not in the best mood when I started reading it and I ended up laughing out loud.
Okay, enough of the mid-week UPDATE. I've still got stuff to do tonight. Tomorrow's a long day too. Man, I hope I get a job soon...
Hi everyone. My name is Todd. I have a problem. I seriously think I'm addicted to pizza. But first, let's get started on the UPDATE!
Current Music: It's 2:25am, so I'm not really playing any music right now. Today's Random Fact: More collect calls care placed on Father's Day (today) then any other day of the year.
so yeah, I'm addicted to pizza. I've always known that I like it a lot, but there comes a time when "liking something a lot" turns into "unhealthy obsession". I think that time is applicable now. See, tonight in the car, I was thinking to myself that I would really like to have some pizza before I Go to sleep,and I was thinking where I could get some fresh pizza being that it was 1am. That in itself isn't the problem, hell, that's normal. The problem lies in the fact that I had already eaten pizza today. Not once, THREE TIMES already! See, I told you something was wrong. Man, all this thinking and typing about pizza has made me hungry again...
Guess what else? I went golfing for the first time today! Not mini-golf you smart ass, real golf! I didn't do all that horribly, but Brother E still beat me. I was kicking his ass in the beginning too, but then I started getting tired And my swing was all off. Well, that and the fact that I suck because I've never played before. But I wasn't going to let that get in the way! We went here. It was very nice.
I took my state boards on Friday, so I should know the results anytime between tomorrow and Tuesday. Man, that test was insane. When I left I felt like my brain had melted, so I came home and watched Batman. I saw that last when it first came out on video, like years ago. Everything was pretty much how I remembered it and it got me ready to see Batman Begins. I'm not a comic movie geek or anything, but I do enjoy mindless movies now and again. Oh speaking of, I watched Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy today whilst I was cleaning. Mindless and goofy, but entertaining none the less.
Okay, I seriously have to find some pizza. Later, -T-
Our class took a trip on the Nautica for lunch the day of graduation. It was a lot of fun. Kelly was nice enough to share her digital pics with me (since I'm too lazy to buy a digital camera). Enjoy! -T-
Karen and I wooed everyone with our dancing.
Ladies from my class. (and you wondered why I wento to nursing school...)
Kelly bought everyone Hawaian (sp?) lays (sp?) so the cruise had a, um, cruisy feel.
My whole class and teachers amd everything. We're not that small in real life.
Karen and I dancing it up.
I think I was organizing the group shot. "Everyone to the back of the boat!"
You know those Pepsi commercials that say Pepsi goes well with food? Something about Pepsi and pizza, I dunno. Anywho, they're right. Mostly. When I'm eating pizza, most of the time I'd love a Pepsi with it. Pepsi more then any other drink. Most of the time.
There is one major exception.
When it's sunny outside and above 77 degrees, Pepsi just isn't going to cut it with my pizza. I know, it's always been faithful to me and it almost never disappoints, but on a nice warm summer's evening, it's time for the big guns. Bud Select and/or Corona Light. (No regular Corona, it has to be light. And make sure you use a Lime. You hear that? No lemon! Yes Lime!).
And they must be eaten (and drunk) by the pool.
That my friends, is Todd's Number One Law of Summer. Remember it, there'll be a test later.
Okay, you may now go back to your previous activities. Me? I've got a speech to write. And another Corona Light to drink.
