Kidd Kraddick has been really funny this morning. Props to them. Yeah, random. I’m putting off studying for my Quantitative Management test and/or my LAN test. Then there’s Database on Thursday so I’ve got my work cut out for me.

The weekend turned out to be pretty good. Saturday morning my dad and I started working on my car to replace some belts. It sounds simple enough and it really should have been. But even though my car is by no means small, things are pretty crammed in there and it makes it hard to get around and loosen stuff up. We spent several hours messing with it and getting nowhere. Meanwhile, some other stuff is going on including Amber getting physically sick and things are not going at all as I’d hoped. We finally gave up on the second belt and just left things as they were for the day. I showered then took Amber some Sprite and crackers. This is where things started to turn around. We talked about some stuff, tried to put away the beginning of the day and finish it well. I convinced my parents we should go to Kobe’s Steak House and then we saw The Incredibles at the Warren Old Towne in Wichita. Good food + funny movie = much better end to the day.

Yesterday was spent running around Wichita passing by places from our past. It was surprising how much some things had changed. We headed back to Manhattan a little later than I thought we would, but we weren’t in a big hurry. I had to be back by 9 for an extreme programming session with my project group. It was incredibly exciting. I think this post might be boring. Something more exciting later.

It’s been a while since I’ve had a really shitty day. Life must have known I was overdue. Here it is!

It’s times like this I wish you could create private posts with Blogger. I might elaborate later, but don’t count on it.

Edit: Now almost 1am, things got much better after about 4pm and the day was salvaged. Still not one of the greatest, but I’m sure you all were(n’t) worried.

I’m sitting at the Boyd desk in suit pants, nice shoes, and a white t-shirt. Why? Because I realized this morning in the middle of shaving that I haven’t done laundry in about 2 weeks and, as such, have no clean dress shirts to wear to my two interviews today. Well that’s just great. Throw a shirt in the washing machine approximately 7:40. Ask Erica if she can retrieve my stuff from the dryer when it’s finished, luckily she agrees. Finish getting ready and head to the laundry room to wait for the washer to finish. Finally get things moved to the dryer around 8:05 and run across the complex to work on Boyd. Apologize profusely to Amy who’s waiting patiently for me to arrive.

Here’s the outlook for the rest of my day. When I get off work I’ve gotta go finish getting dressed, and then I’ve got my first interview with Cerner. I’m not sure when I’ll get to eat lunch because after that I go straight to class. My middle class of the day was cancelled because my teacher will be out of town, but my group decided to go ahead and use the time to work on coding. Next comes LAN where we’re reviewing for a test on Tuesday. Then I’ve got my second interview with Cerner. Around 4pm I should finally be done with the bulk of my day, but it doesn’t end there. I’ve got something else I want to finish up tonight. Maybe I’ll go out, but Amber won’t be there, so we’ll see. Don’t wanna get too hammered for the drive home tomorrow. Oh yeah, my Amazon package should come today. New music (Gavin Degraw, Everwood Soundtrack) and books (America the Book by Jon Stewart) 🙂

Well, this shift has been totally worthless. I seriously had good intentions of getting stuff done, it just didn’t happen. Maybe next time. I’ve listened to this song way too much lately. Not tired of it yet though 🙂

Currently Playing: Dashboard Confessional – Hands Down

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won’t you kill me, so I die happy
My heart is yours to fill or burst,
to break or bury, or wear as jewelry,
which ever you prefer

Hands down this is the best day I can ever remember,
I’ll always remember the sound of the stereo,
the dim of the soft lights,
the scent of your hair that you twirled in your fingers
and the time on the clock when we realized it’s so late
and this walk that we shared together
The streets were wet
and the gate was locked so I jumped it,
and I let you in
And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist
and you kissed me like you meant it
And I knew that you meant it,
that you meant it,
that you meant it,
and I knew,
that you meant it,
that you meant it
