Week in Review



I guess this will become a weekly thing, or least until my head gets a lot clearer.
So what happened this week
1. My mom and I went to Joe's Cafe in Orem for the first time on Monday and then again on Wednesday. It was pretty good food (see burger above) and the atmosphere is awesome. The first time my mom and I stood still like two scared white people until the black owner named Joe popped his head around a corner and said in his Louis Armstrong-type voice "Come On In!!" There's not much selection but like I said, the food's pretty good. Well I guess on Friday it was in the news that Joe got in trouble for offering alcohol and sex to a minor employee or something like that. Say It Ain't so Joe. That don't mean I'm staying away from the Cafe for good.
2. I saw G.I. Joe (again) and bought the new Flight of the Conchords CD on Tuesday. Good Stuff
3. Been doing an application on Facebook that picks a "Friend of the Day" then I say something nice about each one and my hope is to get all the people picked to comment back. It's been quite a success so far.
4. Watching baseball playoffs, both teams I liked lost this week. Now the World Series will be Phillies vs.Yankees. I hope Philadelphia kicks the crap out of New York, even though I hate repeats.
5. Had a good weekend hanging out with my girlfriend. On Saturday, I helped out at her family Halloween party by co-running a Pumpkin Bowling Game. It was more like Pumpkin Throwing from the kid participants if you ask me and surprisingly we only lost one pumpkin.
6. Realized I've been to Taco Bell four times in the last 2 weeks- Monday and Friday both weeks. I got different stuff each time, it's just yummy stuff what can I say. Love the Beef and Potato Burrito
7. Walked a couple times this week while being bored
Me tired and can't think of any more
bye bye

Weird Week



Hey everybody, still suck at posting a lot on this blog
This week I hung out a lot (Monday through Saturday) with one of my best friends Steve while he was moving out of his mom's house. She said on Monday she wanted him out by Saturday and pretty much that's what happened. Tuesday he checked out a couple apartments, he picked the second out of two cause the first one was kind of a shithole haha. Ahhh it was fun though. I did 70% of the moving while Steve was busy being onery about the whole situation. If I had a job and his new apartment had an extra bedroom I would totally wanna move in.
Besides that, not much new this week.
Except
I passed out in the school hall on Tuesday during a lesson on Sexual Functioning for my Abnormal Psychology class. I seem to have history of this, this is the sixth time in the last 12 years of school where I feel like fainting when this topic is brought up in one form or another.
1999- 7th Grade Health- nothing happened but I felt like I was going to explode
2002- 10th Grade Health- passed out in class and slammed my face against the wall breaking my two front teeth, excused from school to visit doctor and dentist
2004- Adult Roles- left the classroom to chill out then went to read in the library until class was over
2004- Health 1010 at UVSC- left the classroom briefly to get a drink and walk around and returned without any problems.
2007- Marriage and Family- same thing
2009- Abnormal Psychology- briefly left classroom then returned where I felt faint again then went out in to the hall to chill out then the next thing I know I'm being woken up by passerbys in the hall. It's a strange feeling like you're in the middle of a damn good sleep and people are disturbing you while wanting to go back to sleep. It's weird also to have to use your brain to answer questions when you really don't want to. One student called the campus police who then called the paramedics cause it's "procedure". So I told the same story three times of what happened. "It was a lesson on  . . .it's happened before when I was . . . . I take lisonopril for high blood pressure . . . .haven't eaten . . . .this never happens otherwise . . . .I'm not diabetic (Yet) . . . . It must be police/paramedic's job to not believe me the first time. My vital signs were OK, said Hell No to going with them to hospital, and I was on my way to one more class where I felt exhausted followed by me vomiting all over myself in the hallway. So yeah- fun day. Had to go shower while my house was filled with toxins and such while our remodeled area was being spray painted.
I don't know what's up with it exactly. I can talk and joke about sex with friends and nothing happens. But the heat of the classroom, my shitty not eating breakfast before school habit, and the detailed thoughts of what's going on internally and externally during the sexual cycle just knocks me out.

Besides that the weather was topsy turvy, it was my Fall break from school which felt more like a week break, I went nuts eating what seemed like everything in sight, and the list goes on. Just strange and I feel like I won't be sane until I turn in a big assignment that's due on Tuesday.

Updates

Remodeling is almost complete. Just some last plumbing and electrical stuff mostly. 

Music is cool. Excited for Tuesday when the new Flight of the Conchords CD featuring most of the songs from the 2nd season of the HBO show comes out.


Movies are good too. Saw Zombieland which I thought was a lot of fun after the excessive gore of the beginning.Whoopee I'm gonna see G.I. Joe again this week.

Later dudes, I'm sleepy and confused about everything, yes every thing!
I weigh in tomorrow, hopefully I didn't gain too much

Gradually getting sadder



Ok, just to get the title out of the way, I dunno I just felt a little sad last night. This is the time of the year that if I'm alone on a Friday night then I feel a bit lonely and I haven't felt this way in a while. I've cried in parking lots on nights like this in the past. It just feels like nobody wants to invite me to do anything and all my friends are doing fun stuff with their other friends. What I did do was go to Shopko where I got a couple cheap DVDs, got 5 Buck pizza with my mom, watched a little baseball playoff action, and retro gamed with The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Monday was an awesome day but then the rest of the week got dumber and dumber . . . Just ate a bunch of food and stuff I already don't remember

Anyway, here are the updates
Remodeling- got the new countertops this week, finally!! Next week some painters will come in and do their thing, then we finally put in all these new appliances which are just sitting there after being delivered this week.

Movies- Finally went to the theater last Saturday with my girlfriend, we saw Whip It. I was pretty excited for it and I was not disappointed at all. Got several DVDs in the last week including Death At A Funeral, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, Rock-n-Rolla (which I watched some of today), and Frequency.

Music- Anticipating the October 20th release of the new Flight of the Conchords album, until then I got a CD by Sufjan Stevens and an album from The Decemberists from an amazon.com order made two weeks ago. Already excited for a couple releases in 2010

well that's about it
can't think of much else
my fall break is next week
hooray, maybe
