Amazing Physical Specimen...

The other day I found my self in a local Safeway buying some drinks. While in line I happened to notice the cashier (who thankfully was a female) givin’ me the visual rundown, in other words, she was pretty much checking me out. Now I, being the amazing physical specimen that I am, was not surprised by this. When it was my turn to purchase my items she seemed to be a tad gigglier than with the previous two customers. I did not know how to react to this. When the time came to give her my phone number for the sweet Safeway discounts she asked for my number 2 more times. “Okay sorry, I’m going to need that ONE more time.”

I have come to two conclusions about this; either she had a terrible hearing problem or she was trying to memorize my number. Whatever the case is it was a huge confidence booster. After leaving I rushed to my friend’s house to tell him of this. We laughed…

This story is true. I found this whole experience hilarious. I think about it from time to time and laugh. I would be lying if I were to say she was not good looking.


She has not called… Yet.

Dah...

Well, spring has arrived and already it has this fat guy complaining about the heat. I have admit, although I love Spring and Summer just as much as I love Fall and Winter, I would much rather work in the cold than in the heat.

Anyways, I have started thinking about my future (near and distant, I suppose). I started thinking about the summer and I became concerned. Camp came to mind and the realization that I might have to miss camp this year; it bugged me and frankly, pissed me off a little bit. I have been thinking where I want to go, and what I want to do in the near(ish) future. My thoughts were ridiculous, even to me, which is discouraging to me in a way. It seems my dreams don’t line up with my talents or my income. It feels like my mind is in chaos right now and my patience is a short fuse again.

I have come to respect people who can screw-up, laugh it off and become motivated to improve. Lately, I will screw-up at something as small as practicing drums and I get ticked and lose my motivation to keep playing. It’s something I hope to improve, but as I lose motivation easily improvement is something that is easier to talk about than to do.

We’ll see where these thoughts take me…

On a lighter note, The Muppets Take Manhattan was on TV today and it stoked my love for the muppets once again.
"Dear Kermit, Wakka wakka wakka, but seriously."

Also, the sixth season of The Simpsons on DVD fills my days with laughter. It was definitely a wise purchase, if I do say so myself.
