sorry for that annoyingness. actually i am not, it could have been worse. you will just have to deal with it, the 3 of you who read this. bahaha
anyways, i put some stats up on my page, hopefully that will be fun. right after i did that, i realized that my webhost keeps stats for me automatically. they kind of suck, because they are for everything on my webspace. i have had 3000 people visit something i am hosting in november. that is nuts... anyways, someone found my website using google by searching for "she wanks me". i found that very funny :D
blah, enough about my webpage, who really cares.
cars and stuff are wierd. that is what this portion of this blog is going to be about, unless i randomly switch to yesterday at work in midsentance. ok, so everyone has a nemesis traffic light. there is that one light that everyone HATES, because it is always red for them, no matter what. so for me, there is this traffic light on 24th and prospect, right after 23rd turns into 24th, heading from south seattle towards UW. gah, i can't think of a time i have hit it green. i can think of 3 times where i just ignored it and blew right through, but no times it was green when i pulled up. the annoying thing about this stop light... it is at a T intersection. the only purpose for this stoplight is so the lazy rich people who live down on the hill and the waterfront can have an easier time of getting onto 24th. the problem is, i have seen someone turn out of that neighborhood maybe like 3 times, and i go past this thing at least three times a week, usually more. so, it stops all this traffic, but no one really uses it. also, it is one of those old school penis traffic lights, so it is harder to see. it is just like, dammit there's the light, dammit its red!! dammit stop!!! anyways, i hate that light. someone please go knock it off or something...
i went to the gas station today, and they had all the entrances blocked off. of course i didn't notice this until i had gone in anyways right past this car. then i was stuck in the gas station, and this dude was yelling at me that i couldn't get gas for 24 hours. i was like, dammit.... i had to drop off the curb to get out. so i go to the other texaco, and there is this mechanic dude staring at me as i pull up to the pump. i turn off my car, and he is walking across the parking lot still staring at me. it was just creepy. scared me...
blah, turned in that resume, hopefully it works. this morning has been funny. i had to go out and meet this crew we have working at one of our sites. they show up like 30-45 min later than they should have, their crew leader decided not to go to work today, and it was half the crews last day at the place they work for. yeah, they are going to get a lot done.... i told them i had to leave, and tipped them off to the fact that no one would be back all day, including the afternoon, so if they were to head out a little early... they were pleased. i bet the left like an hour after i did. oh well, they get paid less than i do, and i am annoyed, i can't expect them to care about things any more than i do...
so, yesterday at work. haha, yesterday, crazyness. me and one of my coworkers led a volunteer work party out near sand point. we were leading 46 freshman from a local high schoolhigh school. the thing was, in a word, chaos. when i said i would help at the work party, they said i would just be wandering around, planting some plants, and answering some questions. NOT TRUE. i was in charge of a large group of 9th graders, in a park i have been too once. eventually, i had a lady from parks kind of help out, but she was mostly there to haul tools in her truck. they had a parent who kind of walked them around, but she didn't say more than 3 words to them the entire time. i came through it though. when the thing finally ended at 2 i was exhausted. i am just glad i didn't get the kids lost on the way the the place we were supposed to be working. i just kind of guessed where it was, and how to get there. i wasn't too far off. when we broke for lunch, these two teachers from their high school came by. i can remember maybe one teacher in high school i found kind of attractive. both these teachers were very good looking. it was wierd. that is a 100% attractive teacher ratio so far. lucky kids.
BAH the resume. wrote it up yesterday, turned it in today. i think it turned out pretty well. i just hope they don't make me take a drug test before they hire me. that would really suck. this dude has been really helpful though. he talked to the hr dept, and he is going to give them my resume :) he is some vice president guy, so things are looking good. more money here i come. long ass commute, here i come!! not working outside in the freezing mud, HERE I COME BABY!!! i'm on a sinking ship, and getting this job would be like getting my own yacht as a life raft. beauty...
i get rent money from my last roomate today, i can finally pay jay for whistler, lol.
