it's a nice break...

I really like this nice long break from work I'm getting. It's weird that I'm actually heading back next week. It's going to be a fun summer...at least that's what I'm thinking. I'm excited!!!

This past weekend...I got to go to the red. I got my butt kicked. Got to see people... like TUTEUR! that was spectacular.

This weekend, I'm going to West Virginia for a wedding. I'm sort of getting sick of riding in the car. I'm not used to that sort of thing anymore.

I think I'm going to be heading to Indy on Monday...that means more car rides...oh well. It's all better than August when I'll have to drive all the way from California. Yuck!

So, the Billy Graham foundation just built a 27 million dollar library to honor Billy Graham. I think there could be a better use for that money. 27 million dollars could go a long way.

The Lost Secrets

So, great news!!! I have learned a new trick. So, you know how when you get gum on things...people say to freeze it? I've never been able to get that to work. Turns out...peanut butter is wonderful! Peanut butter gets gum right out.

Somehow, I have a pair of shorts...and I happened to get a good deal of gum on the butt. Must of sat in some or something... This happened sometime at boulderfest...so I climbed all day with gum on my butt. I then forgot about the gum and washed the shorts...Damn it! Well, I did some googling...and read about this peanut butter thing... So, I put some peanut butter on my shorts...massaged it in...did some scraping...washed them...and the gum is all gone!!! I'm super excited because i love these shorts...

So, if you ever find yourself with a gum mess...use peanut butter...

woo...So, I hate cats...maybe I'd like them more if I could breathe when I'm around them...or if all my skin didn't break out when I'm near one... allergies are just ridiculous...

3 more days 3 more days 3 more days...

Hey Hey!!!!

so...I'm about to start my last hour and a half of this shift...and then I only have one teaching shift left...meaning I have to work 3 hours this afternoon...7.5 hours tomorrow...3 hours sunday...and then I'm done done done... for this season anyway. Then, I'll be out of Cali until June 7th... I'm super excited. Woohoo... Then, I'll be back here for the summer season...which should be super fun.

I'm pretty stinkin excited.

So, there's this guy here at camp...I'm not the biggest fan of him...so I simply just don't talk to him... the other day...he asks me... "do me and you got beef?" see why I don't talk to him? ha...

and he's in the computer lab right now rocking out to Avril's Girlfriend song...ouch... This mean...I have to listen to it... again...see why I don't talk to him...

Honestly...this is horrible...

He's singing along...

Ok, I can't type anymore...I need to leave...my head hurts...oh god...have you actually ever listened to this song? it's horrible...

Maybe if 13 it's a good song...

look it up...punish your ears really quick...

Seriously??? a 26 year old guy????

I just couldn't contain it anymore...I had to bust out that it was the absolute worst song I've heard in my entire life. It's over now...I wonder what he's gonna play next...

The Teacher's Shadow

I told you I would update this...and look! I did...

I kind of like this random title thing...it's fun.

Let's get a poll...is anybody annoyed by the sound the of the alphabet game? Or is the sound on your computer turned off?

So yeah...the season is done for me next Monday. I'm pretty pumped. I will get about 3 weeks off before I have to be back out here...

summer camp should be terrific. I will get to climb bunches.

Speaking of climbing...my new crash pad is here...I used it for the first time today...had to get it dirty...I didn't like it all clean...So Ben and I ran up to South Ridge really quick and played around. Good times...

Speaking of climbing again...Andy was out here this weekend for a few minutes. That made my otherwise VERY rough weekend great. PLUS I'll get to see him again in a week...sweet!

Wow, sorry this blog sucks ass. I think I say that a lot...but it's true.

Remember boulderfest?

well here's a picture...it's of me human bouldering... ;) but really it just looks like I'm trying to take down Andrew...

I wonder if I could take him down...

So...Catalina Island is up in flames...and the company I work for has several camps there...all the people from those camps are staying at Astrocamp right now...they had to be evacuated...a lot of them came here with nothing...hopefully they get to go home soon. The fire came really close to one of the camps...but luckily...it didn't get hit...

There's all kinds of fires going on right now...crazy. L.A. got hit...Florida is being hit...



I'm gonna go now...

stay tuned...

I'm gonna update later...

k?

The Hot Lights

Well, that's the random title for you from the random title generator... It has nothing to do with anything.

TWO WEEKS!!!! that's how much time is left before the end of season.

Yesterday, I went to this thing called Boulderfest... it was amazing. Basically, it was all the astrocamp people plus a few others. It was a competition...not just a climbing competition...but you got points for drinking, for sexual inuendos, for farting while climing (made me think of Tuteur)...and for other various games such as: Taco wrestling (you are wrapped in a crash pad and you have a helmet on and then you try to get your opponent down to the ground.) This is a dangerous game. I did not play, but people were hurt...not badly...but still hurt. Then there was human bouldering...you jump on someone's back and you try to make a complete orbit around that person without their help. Then there was the bench problem. You had to completly make it all the way underneath the bench and then back on top without ever touching the ground. I rocked that game. You could also get bonus points...I got some for having gum stuck on my butt. Of course, you got points for climbing too...oh yeah, and if you could slackline you could get points for that, and if you could get your shoe to land on this one rock, you got points for that. Amazing.

I won for the girls...sweet. I won a chalk bag and some chalk. Pretty much, I think I was the only girl that really climbed anything, so that did me good. I only had one beer...so I didn't get a lot of points for that.

I did get very cut up...which is always fun...and I got beat up by a tree...I have a big gash on my arm now. It was good times...

Yeah,

so enough of that...

The 500 festival mini-marathon was this past weekend, and I'm sad I wasn't home to run it...oh well...I am going to run a hellish half marathon in September in Bloomington. That shall be fun.

Wow, I'm lame.

That's cool though...

I saw a chipmunk today outside my window...I hate those things. Anybody share my same feelings? Once, at Joshua Tree, one ate my honey nut cheerios...chewed right through my plastic container and I couldn't do anything about it because I was belaying Andy...Couldn't very well take him off belay...

Windows in the Game

And that's the next randomly generated title.

So, there's this game...and it's kind of stupid...sort of addicting...but pretty fun... you have to se how fast you can type the alphabet...lame..right?

This is my high score: 3.595 seconds.

Can you beat that?



Try now! Then tell me how you did... ;)

P.S. let me know if my blog is giving you pop ups now or anything. I'll take it off...

I got to see Andy this past weekend...that's was nice. REALLY nice.

I'm sooo tired right now...I wish i could be napping...but I have to wait for a bus.

I watched a cheesy movie last night on the plane... Musics and Lyrics... it was cute...but cheesy. Sometimes you want a cheesy movie. I guess I want them a lot...

I can't believe this season is almost over...crazy...think I already said that somewhere...I still can't believe it...

then there's summer...then comes August...and I'm off for a bit!!!! it's gonna be nice...

Alright...peace out.
