i have lots of little nothings to write about today, but FIRST...it was a *fairly* good day (after the morning-ness)
so last night it started raining...and thundering...and lightning...and i got scared. well, when i woke up this morning it was STILL raining. before erin and i went to bed, i looked at the weather and told her that we were--yet again--under a flash flood warning. well, that's no big deal...usually. i grabbed my umbrella and headed to class in the rain deciding to walk instead of taking the bus, but when i got to commons, i decided that the bus wasn't such a bad idea. so i got on the campus loop bus (the one i ride ALL the time) only to find out that campus loop wasn't going by jowers this morning. i had to get on the bobcat stadium bus to get out to jowers. not only that, but getting on and off the busses without TOTALLY soaking myself was a challenge since the water was over the curb. anyway, i got to sewell park and something looked really different about it. well, DUH! the river overflowed last night. the water was over the bridge last night but by the time i got there around 8:45, the water level had gone down to the bottom of the bridge. the geese were swimming where the cement ususally is. they were stepping right off the bridge into the water. it was CRAZY! i had to walk THROUGH the river to get to class this morning. after class (when it wasn't raining anymore), the river had gone down some and, by the debris, you could tell how high the water had gotten. we must have had some MAJOR crazy rain last night...and i must have been soo tired that i slept right through the storm...which is NOT a very common occurance for me.
after my jowers classes i had poli sci, karen and i went to lunch, i ran to the bank with her then i had to sit in the fanatics cube from 2-4 waiting for people to come fill out/drop off their insurance forms for the road trip. it really wasn't that bad because i had stuff to do so i kept busy.
this part is going to sound REALLY productive and i only wish it was as productive as it really sounds... well, i have a research paper in prevention of disease due on the 30th, web assignments for my foundations of ess class due the 22nd, a semester project due on the 30th for weight training, a test on the 22nd over 233 slides in ess, and i needed to help chris write an appeal letter. so, i'm sitting in the cube working on my research paper when chris IMs me (i know, i know...shouldn't have it open...) and asks me to help him write his appeal form. he had to go to work, so i stopped what i was doing (which was a nice break from smallpox info) and wrote the letter for him. *that's one thing off my list of things to do.* then i finished my web assignments so i printed those off. *there's 2.* i found lots of good sites that i could use for my research and, since it was 5-something, i decided to come back to the room. when i got here, i put on some headphones with some music and got back to work. around 6 i finished my paper and sent it to my mom to read and help me finalize. she was out, so she called me when she got home and helped me word things so they made more sense and then we got to talk...and the conversation (all in all) took 47 minutes...but it was nice. i don't get to talk to my mom much anymore. she got to vent which, i concluded, was something she was in need of doing...to a girl. anyway, i finished the works cited, printed the whole thing out and now i'm finished with that. *3 things.* now...let me clarify something before you think i wrote an entire research paper in an hour. TRUST me i'm not nearly that fast. this paper is over smallpox...which is a topic i wrote about senior year in anatomy and physiology. all i had to do was go in and change some things to fit the criteria for this paper...but you all know me. i LOVE researching...it's the paper part that i'm not too crazy about...unless the topic (like smallpox) interests me!!
i think i've decided that i'll just do my semester weight training project while i'm at home when i can have david, mom and rob's input and help with designing workouts. as for the stupid test...i'm going to fail anyway, i might as well just email my prof and ask if there's any way i can still make a "B" in his class or if i should just drop now...while i still can (we have until the monday before thanksgiving to drop with a "W")!
i missed swim practice today, but i'm going to tell myself that it's ok because i got a lot of things finished today. i know, i know...there are always more things to do, but right now, i'm pretty pleased with myself.
funny story!? (not really a story..more a conversation)
*computer rings announcing that chris is back online...even though i just talked to him at work*
CJE 22: hey
CJE 22: wanna make out
SwimFly816: sure!!!
CJE 22: awesome
SwimFly816: ready!?
CJE 22: you promise
SwimFly816: why not?!
CJE 22: hold on
CJE 22: let me fix my braces first
CJE 22: its me
CJE 22: evan
CJE 22: come on now
CJE 22: man i got you good
SwimFly816: sweetie...chris is at work
SwimFly816: he just called me on his break
SwimFly816: anyway...i'm too far away to make out...and he'd never ask me that
SwimFly816: so...you're out TWICE!
CJE 22: i was kidding
SwimFly816: i know
CJE 22: geez
SwimFly816: that's why i "played" along
CJE 22: calm down
SwimFly816: haha...you think i'm upset?
CJE 22: you are blowing this way out of proportion
SwimFly816: oh
SwimFly816: ok
SwimFly816: well...have a nice night
CJE 22: please dont tell chris
CJE 22: lol
**i'm sure for this to be funny you either had to (a) be there or (b) know that this is NOT the first time for this kind of thing to happen...sometimes i wonder if they know who i am...or that i'm not, really, as stupid as i apparently look.**
that's it for now...i'll write more if more comes along!
