Take me to your leader
Centipedes are scary. Ewwww.
The above was from a saved draft a long time ago. I decided to leave it since they're still scary. We find them all the time in this apartment and I looked it up online and apparently they live in and eat rotton or mildewing wood. Ha, that gives me a certain degree of satisfaction since we're being evicted for landlord-relative-move-in. Chris was joking that in order to get rid of the centipedes I had to destroy their queen and I had a nightmare about a giant centipede with fiber-optic fangs that was crawling all over me.
The rental market is so bad right now. Just read this article. Well 16 days to go, I'll keep up hope!
I've been feeling really uncertain about the direction I want to go with "my life" (by which I guess I mean career-wise) but I took that career quiz that has been going around and it said "clergy" for my number one option. I think there might be a flaw in their system... I noticed that "tile-setter" was in the top 20, which is interesting because in High School a career test that they made me take said "brick-layer".
In Junior High I went on a service trip to Mexico - we were helping to get a new fire-station painted and ready to open for a small village in Baja California. A truck dropped off a load of bricks and we started to lay them all out to form a driveway, being an ambitious bunch of young'uns eager to help. A few hours later a truck full of men came back from lunch and got out of the truck holding levels, stakes and string, measuring tape, rakes and hand-planers for the dirt. They all stood there staring at us, now about half-way done with our shoddy brick-laying............and told us they didn't need our help anymore. We were happy to have an extra day to play around in Mexico, but it was probably tremendously embarrassing for our group-leaders.
Anyway, I don't think it's a skill that I have any interest in pursuing, that was the moral of that story. I am learning the banjo, though. (But not as a future career-path.)
