a bunch

sometimes i catch myself having conversations (out loud) with myself walking down the street. happened this morning on my way to get a bagel and coffee. clearly, the lady walking on the other side of the street was was disturbed by the way she was eyeing me. it made me laugh out loud. at that point she veered away quickly.

took our friends to the airport today. they're leaving for thailand to do some really incredible things. sad to see them go. rusty helped me make a cornhole set last week. i suck at it. but not as bad as amanda. sorry babe. truth hurts.

i need a job. looking for a job is the most draining, depressing thing I've done in quite awhile. nothing like getting your hopes up only to get kicked in the teeth by some pathetic form e-mail telling you they "have chosen an applicant whose background more closely matches blah blah blah." screw you. just tell me i wasn't good enough and that my answers to the interview questions were stupid. i would appreciate the honesty.

watching the olympics every night. staying up way too late to watching events that i already know the outcome to. yes, everyday i check espn.com to find out the results. then i attempt to trick myself into forgetting... kind of like how my dad reads the last ten pages of a book before he reads the rest of the book. i used to think that was the dumbest thing. like father, like son. might as well get it out of the way and admit it.

took zara to the zoo yesterday for a couple hours. she asked if she could get in the cage with the boa constrictor. i wanted to alert her of the potential danger of the snake without getting into the details of asphyixiation, fangs, etc. so i just told her that snakes were mean. it worked. overall, i'd say that as far as going to the zoo and getting rained on the whole time we had a pretty good time.

finally, it was my parents 35th anniversary today. very impressive.

thinking about zara wanting to climb into the cage with the snake made me laugh out loud and makes me miss her so much more.
