Last week
The real hero is always a hero by mistake; he dreams of being an honest coward like everybody else.
Umberto Eco (1932 - ), Travels in Hyperreality (Harcourt)
Well this last week went by so fast I'm glad a hanged on. I worked a lot and I had fun along the way. Thursday I went to my first Christian concert and I wish I knew more of the songs but it was fun. What is better I went for free. How cool is that. I went with my friends from the LSC and I asked if I could invite my friend Kelsey and so she came but had to leave during the last part of the concert, the main attraction, Michael W. Smith. We were off to the side of the stage and that meant that we were on the side of the speakers also. I wouldn’t mind going again.
Friday I was hoping for nice weather so I could take my bike on my grand adventure for the night. Relay for Life started at 5 and I had to be at work at 6 so I just went strait to work after stopping at the apt for some warm clothing and food. I drove to the paper and it was suppose to be a easy night but it wasn’t. We ended waiting around for 2 hours for part of the paper, which really made me mad, but I went with it and did my job. I ended getting to the Relay at 10:30 and had fun for the rest of the night. I started of by burning off some much need energy by running 6 miles and being chased by men dressed up as women. I started but I also finished by out running them. That was fun to run that fast again. I saw some old running buddies so I ran with them for a while and they were running 26 miles or more and since I had to work again that next morning I didn’t want to over do it so, I let them have fun with that. I learned some new swing moves and got to dance with 4 women. That was fun. I also got to do a little kickboxing. I miss kickboxing some much I kind of want to get back into it. See what happens. The night was cold and sometimes was long but I kept warm and by running and just kept moving.
The morning came and I had to go back to work. Well the night b4 I was smart and knew I was going to be tired so I wrote a not to my boss asking if I could just work the short first shift that next morning. Well I left the relay early to get a little extra sleep I turned off my alarm and went right back to bed. When I did wake up I had 10 mins. to get to work. I said this is going to be good. I got to there like right on time. I’m not use to being late for work so I just rushed in nothing had begun so I thought I was ok. My boss was like I need people here on time and I need people to be able to work all day. I looked on the list and it said I was going home early. In side I cheered but then I said if you want me to stay I will I said I would stay and finish the job if you wanted me to. She said, “No that is fine we will just be down one person.” I said ok and just went to work. Got out at 12 and I told a friend if I got out early from work that I would play frizbee. I was so tired still that I wasn’t going to be much help but I was the only there that was going to know how to play. So I went and I didn’t have the speed I usually did or the afterburners but I did a pretty good job for the most part. We lost every match but we had fun and met some old and new friends. After all of that I was worn and torn up. I went home and said hello to the floor and stayed there for a couple of hours. I have not really worked out did anything since Saturday and I’m still sore and I love it to tell you the truth it lets me know I pushed my body like I did in high school. Lets me know I still have it. I learned a lot that I don’t really want to get into.
My second job at the newspaper is becoming a pain in the butt so I’m think I’m going to let that go. Time mean more to me the extra money made. So in two weeks I will be free to do the stuff I want again.
