of bad weather...bws workers who have not a clue about life...southside bars...and other such good things...

So, this weekend...I went down to Kentucky. I met up with Dana in Louisville and rode on down to the Red River Gorge. We were gonna go climbing...

We got there...it was starting to get dark, and we needed to get our tents up. Dana helped me. My tent was brand new and had never been put up. I'm no good at putting things together. Well, we put my rain fly on backwards. It was sort of funny. The vestibule was in the back instead of the front. It was covering a small lake that was forming.

At about 4 a.m., it started storming like none other. The tent held up, so that was good. Needless to say, we did no climbing this weekend.

I came back to indy on Saturday. Went out Saturday night to some good ole southside bars. Ha. That's always a good time. I saw not one cute guy. NOT ONE! I was amazed. I did see about 6 people from my high school though...

Sunday, Colt's game...went to BWs...here's a conversation that was had with a BW's worker...

ME: I would like to order 6 naked tenders, and I would like to buy an extra sauce
BW: Well, you can only get one sauce.
ME: You mean, I can't buy another one? I thought with naked tenders you just dipped them
BW: Oh, so you want a sauce with them and then a sauce on the side?
ME: Well, if there is sauce already on the chicken tenders, then no...but I thought you just dipped.
BW: You do, but it only comes with one.
ME: Well, can I buy another one?
BW: I don't know let me go ask
*another worker comes up*
Me: So can I get extra sauce?
other BW: yes but you have to pay extra.
Me: ok, that's what I want to do. Oh! and I would like to get a piece of chocolate cake...because I'll get that before the chicken right?
BW: No, all the food you order will go to the back of the line.
Me: Oh, last year, the people up front went and got it since the cake is precut.
BW: Well, I can try to do that...
Me: Nevermind...

Wow...maybe you had to be there for that...but it was a crazy little conversation.

I was sort of amazed.

Colts won though...and that's super duper.

Today, I was grading some quizzes... one of the questions was this:

Are the statements x^2=25 and x=5 equivalent?
*the answer is no...because x^2=25 gives you an answer of x=5 or x=-5...

somebody put "kind of" as the answer on their quiz. It made me chuckle.

Right...I'm out.

thanks asher...

oh really?

I'm letting the tequilla thing drop. Mainly because I hate drama...and it has turned too dramatic. I'm not going to get paid for it. She keeps trying to justify why she drank it. Oh well...whatever. So is life. I can get some more sometime...OR maybe you could buy me some? :)

Sigh...the route I led...Sandy's ass cherry...not Sandy's ash tray. Thanks Wes for the clarification.

Tonight, I'm going to Chuck E. Cheese for my favorite child's b-day...Oh Chuck E. Cheese...I have spent too much time underneath your roof. I know all the songs that you have changed the words to. Yet, I'll never get away. Never... ever ever...dang. I may pull out a dance to the birthday song tonight. Everybody wants to see that. Mainly for laughter's purpose.

Wow, that last paragraph had no grammar at all...I'm good at that with these here blog posts. Maybe, one day, I'll write a post like it was a research paper. Good grammar and all.

I'm grading papers right now. It's hard for me to find the motivation to do it. If you want to help...you can.

I'm sorry that these posts suck butt. Sometimes, when I'm driving a long... I think about something good to talk about, but then...I forget.

I wonder about a lot of things...and then...they would be good to talk about...but then...I forget what I was wondering about.

random thoughts:

*I'm not big on chocolate...but I do love Snickers. They are good.

*Again, this blog sucks butt.

*What does suck butt even mean?

*Are you reading this?

*My mom invited me to a "puppyware" party tomorrow. What is that? Would I want to attend? REALLY? I sort of do...just to see the madness that is puppyware.

*I know a girl in Lexington that's having a birthday party for her dog tonight. I sort of wish I could go to that too.

*I hate math.

*It's getting cold outside. I like fall...but where's summer?? I bet it will peep its head around the corner one more time.

*people make me laugh.

*I'm done.

*Seriously...

good times

I went down to Kentucky this weekend to climb. I like it there. It's fun. I got to lead my first route!! Woohooo!!!

A guy was with us...Wes...and he likes to take pictures. It's cool, because I have pictures of my first lead climb. Yeppers. It was a fun little route...Sandy's ashtray as they so liked to call it...aka...lowered expectations. :)

So...here are the pictures wes took. You can find more of his work here.




Alright...so yeah... it was a great weekend. Got to see some Lexington peeps too. That's always good. I loves me my Lori Jo!

Went to Max and Erma's in Lexington last night. Had me a sunday...all you can eat sundays. Good stuff... I think I made it through 3. Or was it 4? It doesn't matter...other people's spoons kept making their way to my sunday.

Life is good...nothing new to say really...

I'm back in Indy...sitting in the computer lab...being sorta bored...so why don't you entertain me? Tell me something crazy...

Rain Rain Go Away...

I don't mind the rain...but not this stuff. It's been nonstop all week...and it's the freaking cold rain. I no like...I no like.

So, I just got home...I go into the kitchen to put something in the fridge. I notice that someone has drank my whole bottle of Patron. OH HELL NO!!!! That's my off limits alcohol. That's my special baby. There was Cuervo right next to it. Why not drink that? So, a few weeks back, I noticed a bottle of my wine was gone...I was going to let it slide...but my Patron? That's not sliding. Do you think I have a right to be mad? I do...I mean, I won't be mad if it gets replaced immediatly. I guess I'll be taking all my alcohol out of the kitchen now. What's worse? She didn't even put the top back on when she was done...there's still a little bit left in the bottom...Now it's no good. Oh well, so is life.

Today, I had to work in the computer lab at school. Keep in mind, my only job to do in there is tutor. I do not do any tech support at all. I would be more than happy to do some tech support, however, I do not have admin rights. Today, some genius locked the computer that's hooked to the printer. People can't print unless they long on to this print program. They couldn't log on because it was locked and only an admin or the user "printswipe" could unlock it. I went to the little computer office to let them know, but nobody was there. I go back to the lab, tell everybody sorry, they will have to go somewhere else to print. People were giving me the death stare. I promise. I felt a little weird. I couldn't do anything about it. I'm a TUTOR...I need not know anything about computers. I did not like.

I went to the climbing gym tonight. I got to practice belaying. That was great. I need all the practice I can get with that. After that, I went over to Sarah's house. I had left some Hummus over there the other day. She made cookies. They were good. She even let me take some home. Thanks Sarah!!!! So Andrew (her son) is supposed to be in bed. He keeps yelling about he can't sleep. He then says he is hungry. Sarah tells him to go to sleep. He then says if he waits to long to eat, he's going to die. It made me laugh. Crazy kids.

Did you know cotton balls give me chills? They do...it's sort of weird.
