I woke up today. 

 

Also my Dad gave me some dope swag from Israel.

My nephew is running around in a shirt with camels on it.

I ate a caramilk egg.

I didn't have to go into work.

I ate a whole mini watermelon.

 

I thought that watermelon was for KD I wish I took some eggs back.

Wife woke me up after barely 5 hours asleep.

Had about 5 minutes to get dressed and take her to work.
That kinda sucked but...

 

Her boss gave me a free pita of my choice for my birthday. That was pretty awesome. 
Mmm Super Gyro.
Then, on the way home, I was still kinda groggy. Probably would have passed out as soon as I got home but...

Like the best five songs to start the day with played back to back:

 

Simple Minds - Don't You (Forget About Me)

David Bowie - I Have Not Been To Oxford Town

ELO - 10538 Overture

My Morning Jacket - I'm Amazed

ABBA - Waterloo

 

And more fun stuff to look forward to after 3 PM.

Going to be an awesome day.

Wishing everyone else all the best! <3

Woot. Care to say which?

 

Are you actually wanting to go to Grad School, or are you just testing the waters?

I had 30 seconds of pure bliss and 3 hours of pure alone time.

Oh, this one's a long-ish one.  I can delve into more details if you wish (via PM), but tl;dr: Unethical employee was narc'd on.

 

I've had a problem gnawing away at me at work for the past couple weeks regarding ethical issues.  An employee of my company was falsifying data and fabricating (negative connotation) specifications for jobs.

 

I had previously broached the issue with my GM and President.  At the time, the guy in question was going through some tough shit regarding his (now ex) wife.  The GM at the time, and President, both "Ostrich Maneuvered".  So, I figured "That's the end of that."  I knew the problem arose again within the last few weeks, and it's been bothering me to no end.  It was one of the few jobs in our shop the employee in question was in charge of handling (it was mine for a little before, but I swapped jobs with the employee in question because our customer needed a prompt response, and the employee in question was making no progress on it).  I knew the employee in question did not touch the job, which is indicative of bullshitting specifications... I shared that with nearly half our office, finally when I told one of the guys I actually look up to he's like "Dude, go double check your shit, but I cannot in good faith allow this to fly as a P.E."

 

So he told the GM and President for me.  It's good because, despite a few minor qualms, I enjoy the job and I want to stay with the company.  I was not, however, going to stay with it while the employee in question was still employed.  The problem is killing my motivation at work, it's something I take home with me (even though I know I shouldn't), it is just eating away at me.  I started updating my resume this week because of the issue.  So if this brings some resolution to it, I'd be thrilled.

I got an 85% on the AP Psych test I talked about yesterday. I also got the bonus question on my International Relations China quiz through pure luck. (The question was: What is the #1 US fast food chain in China? Answer: KFC).

I finished a project I'd been avoiding for about five days and turned it in. I should only have ONE MORE WEEK UNTIL I GRADUATE.

I woke up and I am healthy and safe. We don't really stop and think about the small blessings in this world... There's a vast number of people in this world who lack the hygiene, food, safety and comfort in our lives.

I woke up to th sun shining over the lake outside my window. There are deer grazing in my backyard, birds nesting on my back porch, and squirrels playing in my trees. So happy to live in such a beautiful, natural environment. Every day spent with nature is a good day for me.

I really love this. One of my eventual goals is to live somewhere closer to nature... we live in a pretty small town now, but on the main road, so it's usually not exactly peaceful. I definitely miss having a huge backyard  (and turkeys/deer/rabbits wandering across it) and hearing birds outside when I wake up. 

 

Relevant to the topic, I had a roast dinner together with my family today and it was great.

Not sure if pricing error or unadvertised sale... Maybe even unmarked clearance, bit saved $10 on our normally $16 bag of catfood so... bought them out since they're good through 2/2016. Too good of a deal to pass up. Shame they only had like 4 bags.

[Emily]

I drank some coffee.

[majestictuna]

Oh jeeze. I have another one. 

 

Currently, I am overstuffed on some amazing spahetti I made. 

 

Reasons why it's amazing:

• I strayed from our usual Italian family recipe and went out a limb
• I went healthier than I usually do: wheat noodles, organic, grass fed beef, fresh basil, etc. Wish I had tried it with fresh tomatoes instead of canned, but I'm not God, so...
• My husband, my biggest food critic (we live near Portland...food is a BIG DEAL), loved it.
• I know I did good when my toddler mutters, "Yum, yum, yum, yum," as she's shoving fistfuls of spaghetti in her mouth

Made me feel goooooood.

I skipped rocks today. Haven't done that since I was a kid. Felt good man.
