well this week was pretty awesome despite the fact that the seahawks lost. thursday was dinas last day of work so we threw a little potluck. it really sucks because she is probably one of my favorite people that i work with. she is really the only one that i can really talk to about work problems and we both understood eachother so well. im really going to miss her. then on friday was wilsons last day, another one of my favorite people. so a few of us guys went out bowling until midnight. carnell ended up getting completely wasted and was just being crazy. it was hilarious. they had already started a game when i got there. so i watched for a bit, but then i got into the game. the first game i bowled terrible. we were playing for pushups so i ended up having to do 10, second place had to do 20 and last had to do 30. the next game really went down to the wire. it was between me and wilson, it was the 10 frame and we were tied. he went before me and got a spare, but in the extra frame you get in the 10th he went straight down the gutter. so i was down 10 and had to knock down all the pins to at least tie him and get a chance to win. so i throw that ball as hard as i can... BOOM! BANG! BING! there are two pins left and they are the 8 and 10. so that is just great i have a frikkin split to deal with and of course wilson knows he has already won because noone that bowls once every 3-4 years could ever hit that shot. so i go for it again... BOOM! BANG! BING! i hit the 8 and it is spinning towards the 10 and knocks it down! it was incredible. the lanes next to us were all yelling in amazement and i just started running around screaming. it was probably the best shot i have ever hit, especially in those circumstances. the next game i just ran away from everyone. we only got to play 9 frames before they cut us off, but i was so far ahead it didnt even matter.
so saturday i woke up and realized the power was off, i looked at my phone to see what time it was and that was dead. so i turn it on and see that it is 8:30 before it turns back off. that is just great because i was supposed to start work at 7:45. so i get dressed and go to work, explain to my boss and whatnot. he actually doesnt really care and is fine with it. so i do the sort and he sends me out on road to do a checkride with someone. we end up not being able to deliver everything on time so my boss meets us, takes some stops off of us and i go with my boss to deliver them. so we get done and i head home. i have an hour and a half before i have to be back at work. i have a ton of stuff to do to get ready to head down to ericks that night. so i get home and i do 2 loads of laundry, make myself hamburger helper for lunch, take a shower, pack and get gas all in an hour and 15 mins. pretty amazing isnt it? so i go to work and do all my stuff there, then i hit the road for oregon. i make it in about 2:45 which is pretty awesome time. so i sit and talk with my second parents and then erick and i watched a basketball dvd then go to sleep.
sunday we got up and watched the end of a basketball game, then we sit around and wait for the game to come on. so we watch the game and whatnot. i have to say that game was terrible. i mean yea pretty much everyone is blaming the refs for loosing us the game and im sure we probably would have won had that had the touchdown been complete instead of that retarded offensive interference call, and the holding when we were on the 2, and the roethlisgerger TD. but the thing is out offense was terrible and our D didnt do what it was supposed to. plus the playcalls were really bad in the 4th quarter. oh year and stevens... idiot. well im sure we will be in there next year.
monday i woke up, got my things together and hit the road. i went to the woodburn mall and hit up the nike store. man i could do a ton of damage in a place like that. they had some really good deals, but i was able to hold myself back and only got a sweet sleveless shirt and a pair of shoes for a total of $50. then i went to a few other stores and spent another $50 at the jockey store. i had to buy some beaters for work and some new underwear because all the girls have been pulling on them and ripping them lately. then i just cruze all the way home. one thing i thought was interesting was it is 204.4 miles from doorstep to doorstep, but i looked at my tripometer when i got home and it said 202.8, so did i levitate or something? odd just odd. so i got home and unpacked then i went to work, which went alright. then i came home, tried to find some good tv to watch, but just ended up watching the zags game, which turned out to be really good. and they won by 1. adam morrison is the coolest guy of all time. oh yea i have still yet to shave off my mustache, but will be doing it at some point today. thats all.
