Blog 39: I like to keep people on thier toes

I just took the most glorious shower. I was at the gym at work, and just finished a little light weight lifting and decided I needed a shower. Now let me set the scene for you. I am at the gym and go to get some water from a water fountain. It doesn't work, so I go to the next one. There is a lot of water pressure at this one though so I have no trouble filling up my water bottle. I head on past the girls locker room which is out of order. It is about this time that the wheels should have started turning but they did not. So I head on in, get undressed and head to the shower. I put my stuff in the stall mildly noticing that I am the only one in the showers except for someone who appears to be sleeping as they are curled up on the ground. Oh well. I hop in the shower and contrary to what I normally do where I turn the shower on at test the temperature, I just stood in front of the shower head and cranked on the flow. About five minutes later when I was able to fight my way back up the immense pressure wave and turn the water down I finally realized that my shower was one of two active water sources on the floor where all the water was pumping into, and that there was a shit ton of pressure there. It was a glorious shower to say the least. Like getting hosed off when you are taken to prison in Shawshank Redemption. Glorious.

I was little weirded out at work yesterday cause I thought I may have blacked out and killed my boss. I was sitting at my desk having just gotten back from a meeting with my boss and went to the bathroom to find my hands covered in blood. When I returned to my desk I had an email from my boss to everyone saying he was going to be "out for the rest of the day". Dun Dun Dun. But if anyone asks I'll just say it was a paper cut.

Its the end of out fiscal year here at work so everyone who puts off all their work to the last minute like they are still in college are all scrambling to catch up (me included) But it works out well, but I am near done which makes me happy, though tomorrow is supposed to have massive flooding so I wonder how many people are going to freak out and not come in to work HA!

Loving my new phone also. Now I have never had a phone that would be considered "up to date". I recall when I got a phone where I could assign a picture to a name so I knew who was calling. My house was signified by a cartoon cow. Not sure why. Perhaps home makes me think of steak. Hmm... well it does actually, though I doubt that was my motivation. My parents were HUGE into steak when I was growing up. Its like Milk for adults. Strong bones and all that jazz. But as I was saying. LOVE the phone. Hate paying Verizon more money so they can EAD (Eat a D*ck) but still loving the phone. Yes, Duck, for those wondering I meant Duck. Cause Ducks are delicious. But for example, I was stuck in traffic this morning and a few clicks later on my phone I was past it. That's right, I called in a hit man who took care of the problem ;) Well not really, but I could see where the traffic was a route around it like a champ. I can also listen to Pandora on it, though I think Pandora is rigged. Pandora has this thing where you can say you like and dislike something and it "learns" what you will like and starts suggesting appropriate music. But I think they might have a bit of bias or something cause I'll say I like a little Linkin Park and throw in some Em&m and they'll suggest Johnas Brothers. Or I'll state that I sure think System of a Down and Metallica is nifty, and I get.... Johnas Brothers. Little weird. Also should throw it out there, that I do not, in fact, like the Johnas Brothers. But other than that odd flaw, it is fun.

I am truly impressed also by the applications available for your phone where you basically run a program to do a task, but there are programs out there to do ANY task. There is an application called Google Goggles where you take a pic of something and it tells you what it is, identifying works of art, logos and will eventually be capable of telling you where you are by a picture and who that guy is you just snapped a pic of. Creepy in some ways. Or this other application called Google Sky that gives you a picture of the night sky in whatever direction you are pointing the phone and identifies stars helps you locate planets and so forth. Some people may not find that as cool as me but I think it frikkin rocks. But I think one of my favorites is called My Tracks which GPS maps your movement while it is on, so basically creates a drawn path, and measures speed rate, max, mins, and altitude. It's a friggin phone, how the CRAP does it do altitude. But it does! Swanky. Used that to get unlost in the forest the other day, as I do.

Go Time.
