I hate dial up. I REALLY hate JD Web (my provider). They're great if you like frequent disconnects whenever you try to do something online, random outages, and lousy support. If only we had a better option...
I would have posted last night but we had no internet access from just before 10pm till now. That's ridiculous. I'm very pissed about that. I tried repeatedly last night to get back on. Finally around 4am I said screw it and went to bed. I had a pretty good entry all planned out but now I have to try my best to remember what I was going to say.
I've definitely had my Taco Bell craving satisfied for a little while. Yesterday I went for lunch and had a chicken grilled stuft burrito. It was good. Then for dinner my mom, my brother, and I went to another one. That's where my bro wanted to go for dinner and didn't know that I had already been there. But I didn't mind. I'm a big fan of Taco Bell and since Ken-Taco Hut closed I can no longer get my fix while at school. Two steak gorditas, a steak soft taco, and a regular crunchy taco later I was satisfied. Now I won't have to go there for a while.
While I was out yesterday we went to Ollie's Discount Warehouse. I normally hate that place. It usually stinks and they hardly have anything that I'm interested in looking for. But yesterday was different. They gave me a great idea. When we get back to school we're going to do a themed cookout. They had these little mini tiki torches for .99 each. I could pass it up. Not sure how the cops are going to react to seeing our patio ringed with mini tiki torches but I think it'll be fun. Besides, if they tell us to put them out we will, no biggie. But think about it, tiki torches, Hawaiian shirts, maybe a string of tiki lights over the door? I see fun. Of course I'll have to check with the other guys first but Steve thought it sounded like a good idea too.
Having been to 3 malls in 2 days I'm starting to notice a very disturbing trend. Most of the girls I'm seeing are either obese or they're 13. I also figured out a fun game to play. This one's for the guys to try: If you're walking around in a store and there's a young couple near you (we're talking somewhere around 15 or 16 year olds) pretend to be checking out the girl and then look over at her boyfriend, I bet you just about any money that the first thing he does is reach over and put his arm around her and then make her give him a kiss. It happens the same way almost every time. They must feel pretty insecure. Definitely makes you miss the real women at college. Everyone back here just seems so young in general. To be 20 years old and to feel old is not a good thing. I found out that half my team at Bucknell is going to be high school kids. Hopefully I don't end up babysitting cause they definitely aren't paying me enough for that. Maybe if I'm lucky I'll be working with some other college age people as well and they'll be cool. If not this could be an even longer summer. I guess it seems that I'm going to be starting work earlier than most people. A lot of them aren't even out of school yet. So I'm thinking it's probably good to get started and get the money coming in sooner than later since I'm not going to be making all that much.
Got the old hair cut before going back to work for the summer. It was nice to have my normal person do it rather than let Supercuts screw it up again like they did last time.
On the way home from Taco Bell they had our road closed. We stopped and asked the fireman who was directing traffic if we could get to our house and he knew us and let us through. We found out later that there had been a head on collision within sight of our house around dinner time, guess it's good we were out. Lifeflight came in and everything. It was pretty bad from the sound of it. There seem to be a lot of accidents out here by our house lately. I don't remember it ever being this bad. Speaking of accidents, it's good my mom and I went the back way to Bloomsburg to get our hair cuts. There was a deadly accident on the highway about an hour before we would have gone through that section. We probably would have been held up waiting for them to clear the scene. People should really learn to be more careful on the road. I know accidents can't always be prevented but they're often the result of carelessness.
This post isn't very chronological. I noticed that I've been skipping around a lot. I must just not be awake enough yet to think clearly. That's about all I've got right now. I'll post again tonight like normal to let everyone know how much "fun" I had at my bro's and banquet... Ugh.
Until next time,
Eric
