Hey guys, how has everyone been?

Re: How Was Your Day?

Today at work this woman came in and handed me some weird pamphlet. At first I thought it was a menu to a restaurant so I was like, "Oh okay thanks," and put it down on the front desk and went to go do something else. Then she started speaking to me in broken English about how I need to sign up for this "mediation program" and I have to "subtract distractions" to get to the true world, and in order to do this I need to get rid of my "self".

...looked the group up online and yeah, it's a total cult.

I wonder if that's one of those cults that give out free Kool-Aid.

Today has been kind of rubbish, so I'm hoping tomorrow is better.

Well they do have "centers" that are run by "helpers" who live and work there without pay...so it seems it could go that route sooner or later.

Re: How Was Your Day?

Sore, but not as sore as I'd imagine I'd be from paddling 12 miles across the Puget Sound in a tribal canoe for 5 or 6 hours, heh. I turned down doing over 8 hours of field work gathering information on vegetation 40 minutes north of here because the last two days have been nonstop action. I'll have a few days later in the week to get that done.

That's not to say I'm not enjoying myself. When it comes to Ecology and Anthropology it's a labor of love.

Turning down work for 6 hours of canoeing?

You really are a slacker at heart. A very manly slacker.

Also, yay Anthropology. I was considering going into that field when I was 17, but I didn't think I'd get to far with a degree in that. Then again, I didn't know a lot of things when I was 17.

Re: How Was Your Day?

Finally got the girls down for a late nap, but my two-year-old is still fighting it and is periodically fussing from the playpen where I laid her down.

Read her a story. Perhaps this one?

Jesus. I'm trying to convince her that she's in a safe place and that sleeping is a good thing, not give her Kafka dreams until she's a senior citizen.

I went to the post office this morning to put a package in the mail. I ran into a group of Amish. It was pretty weird running into the Amish in Alaska, but they asked for directions to Denali National Park. I guess even the Amish like vacations.

Re: How Was Your Day?

I'm okay, chugging along at my summer internship. Having a bit of DA STRESS though. My doctor put me on a course of antibiotics after the first round didn't quite solve the problem. Every time I take them I start to itch, but apparently my dr thinks that so long as I don't have a rash, it should be okay. Doesn't stop me from wanting to jam a qtip in my ear and scratch like crazy!

But life's going pretty good - have a great job and starting Library Science school in the fall, how can I complain? Ultimately these problems are just a drop in the bucket.

That cat looks like it just had the party of its life and is trying to determine whether it should feel ashamed due to the sign or if it was "totally worth it ."

Re: How Was Your Day?

I was forgotten at my clinic today. I wasn't called on in an hour, and they were like 'wtf is that girl still doing here?' turns out the receptionist never put me in the computer, so I sat there for an hour, because of her. I only needed my blood drawn for testing.

My day was pretty rad, but then again everyday is for me.

Cleaned more ponies
Got a box or really nasty ponies and now I'll attempt to clean them up.

Re: How Was Your Day?

I bought an NES. Not for me, for a friend, and personally delivered it. (birthday gift, NES had 3 games, 2 controllers, all cords and instruction manual for $39.99 and everything was great other than case and game labels being yellowed from tobacky smoke)

Otherwise not too bad, walked a hiking trail in the south hills here and got a tour of the university campus from a friend of a friend.

Reminds me of my cat; I've lost count to how many times she's destroyed my TP

Did cardio for about an hour this morning. Cleaned the fish tank. Went to a meeting with our financial adviser. Cooked spaghetti for dinner. It was so good that I had seconds.

That's shitty.

What a cool gift!

Re: How Was Your Day?

Work day was a lot like Rika (crazy and shit kept getting thrown my way) so I was happy to get out today. Got the stuff to make Mexican for my hubs since today's his birthday and he requested chicken enchiladas for dinner. Found a singing birthday card that played the Hamster Dance song so I had to get that, and a Steam card to make up for the card. And there's apple pie for dessert, but he doesn't know that yet.

Just found out that a friend from college may not make it through the night due to a fungal infection in her lungs, though... so that's killed my mood some.
