Just A Night Out

So, the nurse got lost on the way to Wilson Farms, the theatre worker went to Warped Tour, the unemployed is leaving all their lint to the theatre worker when they pass, the unemployed student accidentally swallowed a bug, and the debt collector made witty lines throughout that made us all laugh so hard that the unemployed student cried. That was just part of our conversation about the week. Overall it was a commical night filled with ridiculous stories and side-splitting humour at the coffee and donut shoppe.

Testosterone.

We walked to the library today, and we were about to cross a street when we saw a mean little sports car (type unknown) turning across the road. It's driver pulled out of the corner so fast that he fishtailed into the other lane and almost hit a tree. He and a friend parked the car and got out and were laughing and trying to say something to us. We smirked at them and kept walking. Switchfoot sounds much better than testosterone packed teenage boys trying to impress random strangers.

The Inhabitants Thereof

We didn't get to Starbucks this morning as planned. No, we woke up late and practically ran out the front door with no make-up on, our dingy jeans and old grey sweatshirt for style, and hair stuffed into our hat, all the while completely forgetting our cell phone on the floor of the bedroom. Too bad we missed it. We could have used that free pastry they were offering.

We had a systems class at 8 and a financial analysis exam at 10:30. We definitely could have used a relaxing cup of coffee before that hand-wringing, head-ache-causing, close to giving us a case of pulminary hypertension, test. We're upset now, because when we got home, the inhabitants thereof had decided to put on a pot of tea instead of their regular everyday routine of fresh brewed, silky smooth to the taste, purely brilliant, oh so marvelous cup of coffee. Too bad, we could have used that on a day like today.

Sighting

So we were driving home from work one day and saw a guy on the sidewalk dressed all in black, fervently brushing his teeth as he walked to school. We guessed he woke up late. :)

Movie

So we went to see "Up." We had the theater allllll to ourselves! At one point, people came in, but it was just us, so it was okay. We also saw the theatre worker (of this blog) working that night, but we didn't get to buy anything from them, although we did say "hello." Oh well. There's always another rainy day.

No Great Improvement

Today we went disc-golfing. We scored our best score ever! A +19 over par. Now, before you judge us we should tell you that this is a great improvement! Our last score was a +27 over par. We went with a friend who scored a -10 under par. He thinks its about time we change over to the professional course. What do you think?

The Job Market is Slow, So We'll Head to the Seminars!

We went to a "practice your interviewing skills/ what to put in your portfolio that will impress a prospective employer" seminar today. It turns out that the "practice your interviewing skills" part was only 4 minutes out of the 4 hour long seminar. Plus, we were interviewed together with two other people. We were upset because we didn't end up getting very much practice at interviewing, but at least we know what goes in our portfolio, right?

Kelly

We got a phone call early this morning. We didn't recognize the number so we just ignored it. Then we got another call from the same number, so we answered it. We heard someone advising the caller, "If it's not her, just say you're sorry and hang up!" The caller asked us if we were Kelly, and we were very groggy, so we just said, "Sorry, no." The caller apologized and hung up. We were not able to get back to sleep. We were not very happy, but amused at the same time.

AAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!

One day we were driving in a place we didn't recognize, and we were feeling apprehensive. We came to a stop sign, and we looked both ways, wondering which way to go. Suddenly, something came flying toward our face!! We jumped a mile in the air, and then suddenly realized that the windshield wipers had come on. No, we have never been allowed to forget that moment in infamy when we suddenly became afraid of windshield wipers :)

Beetles!!

So we decided to wash our bike today as it had been left outside unused for the past 6 months. We thought it would stay in better condition inside and as we have no storage space we brought it into the dining room. So we washed it carefully to avoid dirtying the carpet. Later, we went back to examine said bike and found it crawling with beetles! Apparently this was the time they came out to play! After doing battle with them for several minutes we insightfully decided to put the bike outside and allow the little critters to scatter as we had not the fortitude to kill them all.

Look what I can do!

We were in the car today getting Chinese food. We started talking like Stuart and his mother from "Mad TV." We do very good impressions. We wanted to go to the nurses house and ask to be let in with the Stuart's mother voice. We know that would annoy them...or perhaps they wouldn't know what we were talking about. But it was funny to us, and we laughed about it until we got to their house. The end.

What the Hoohay and who wants a handful of feathers?

So we lost our bank card today. Actually, we accidentally gave it away in exchange for $8. We gave it to the artist for pizza money at the birthday party, who gave it to the infrastructure worker as change. We called him. He didn't pick-up the phone.

So we decided to open our fortune cookie as we called him back the second time. And guess what?! It was right. It read "A lifestyle is what you pay for a life is what pays you." Thankfully we were able to get ahold of him. We're getting it back this week. 'Till then we're meditating on the second fortune cookie that says "A feather in the hand is better than a bird in the air." Yeah, that's what we thought.
