Now and again I lose sight of the good life

I was so excited about my laptop that I forgot to write about it yesterday! It came on Monday (my day off, yay!) while I was cutting grass. Funny enough, I wasn’t super super excited about it. It was sort of just like I knew I had to use it and that it was just another tool. I do like it, I guess Macs aren’t so bad. It’s just nice to have a laptop again.

I’m watching something on the history channel that I’ve seen already. wtf.

Destination Kent (AKA College Orientation) is tomorrow and the next day. Not looking forward to it. Why does it take a day and a half to do so little?

I got paired with some idiots at work today. I had planned on going into details, but I don’t really feel like it today. Just know that I was frustrated for most of the day. And I got paint all over my shorts.

My friend has been insisting that I go into modeling. I don’t know what to think of it. I think it would be fun, but I’m not sure if I would really make it…. and I don’t know why he’s the only one that has ever said anything. I suppose we’ll see. I have to even out my tan lines before I do anything.

You said you’d help me disappear

I (once again) cleared out my blog and am starting fresh. This time, I just marked them private and didn’t delete them all! So, I have mono and a co-infection (sinus infection, as far as I know) and I feel like death. My throat hurts to do anything, I’m tired, have random body aches, and don’t want to do anything. I’m supposed to rest and take it easy, so I go to work.

Today at work, I was on a riding mower which eventually broke. I started the blades and it was really loud – sounded like a metro ‘copter and was just about as loud as one; earphones didn’t help much. I went back to the garage to ask if it was okay, and after listening to it, the full-timers decided it was good to go. Despite the noise, it cut okay. I was out cutting a giant field with two other kids when all of a sudden it got sort of quiet. I figured it was either really good or really bad. Looking behind me, I saw that not much was cut. I looked inside and a metal spring had snapped. Once I took it back, a guy asked me if I knew how to drive with a trailer so I could take it to get fixed. My dad had taught me on Sunday, but I never went out in traffic, which I told him. He said, ‘maybe we’ll let you get some more experience first.’ I later texted my dad about how funny my luck was, to which he replied with, ‘You only live once. Take a chance and be careful.’ FML! I would have done it if I knew he would have said that. It was about 3 hours after I almost drove it, so the chance was long gone. Maybe I’ll ask if I can tomorrow.

I ordered an Apple MacBook Pro 17.” I’m excited! Although not a fan of Apple, it’s going to be nice to have a laptop again.

I’ve been watching the history channel like crazy lately; I’ve seen almost every show twice this week.

It’s good to be back!
