This has been quite the week! Here are some high points and low points.
I had Monday off of work, too bad the rest of the week was aweful.
My bus driver told a guy on the bus that he thinks the Light Rail is stupid and a waste of money. Pretty sure Metro Transit wouldn't like him saying that, but I guess it is a free country. Today that same bus driver and guy were talking about Swine Flu. The guy was commenting how he is nervous about it and the bus driver said it's probably just a media frenzy. The bus driver said 36,000 people die from the flu each year. The CDC is estimating 90,000 will die from H1N1 this year. The bus driver brushed that off like most since he is in good health. The guy mentioned that his father is 81 and could die. And the bus driver replied with, "my siblings are all older than me, in the 70s and 80s. They are going to start to drop and it's not going to be pretty." Then he continued to say he wasn't looking forward to it. Possibly you don't want to call it "dropping" if you are having issues with your family members passing.
On Monday, I was walking to my car to run some errands and a guy was outside walking his dog wrapped in a blanket, naked from the waste up. Pretty sure he was naked from the waste down. Not sure why you wrap yourself in a blanket to walk your dog.
I saw two people almost get hit by cars because when people j-walk other people don't pay attention and they follow at their leasure when cars are coming.
I only fought with one sales rep this week (that's a good point) however it was pretty heated and most of my office heard me talking on the phone.
I've become addicted to FarmVille on Facebook. (Amber, that was for you.) It's a stupid game, but kind of fun and very addicting.
I've started a couple of special projects that I'm pretty sure some of you will find out about in the near future, though I can't disclose anything now.
I found a really cute vest at Target that I'm trying to convince Michael to buy me.

I really can't stand the person, haven't been able to since I met him in elementary school, and likely never will. It ruined my morning today :)
I'm reading
My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult. It's a pretty good book so far.
I have a slight obsession with the Kennedy's. I'm not sure why, but I really want to read Edward's memior as well as
Jackie & Bobbie.
People magazine gave both 5 stars.
At some point during the week, I realized that the problem with living in a free country is that it makes people careless, heartless, pompous assholes. As it turns out, those assholes are our friends, family, neighbors and co-workers and there's no escaping it. I find it highly disapointing that there are so many people in the world who only care about themselves, what their status is and how much money they have.
Finally...I can see the city lights
And we are in Moorhead
Rose Creek? Really? I remember about 7 years ago when I took a pic by this sign and the area was all dirt, fully developed now.
A lovely sun set. Was a great day, probably the last one we had of the summer.
We had to visit our alma maters. Some pics for Concordia at night.
He danced his pants off...literally
Always gotta check out the boar, 1310lbs!
AND there's the "ham" I'm pretty sure it was bigger two years ago when I coined it the "ham" Some lady thought I was a city slicker and informed me that it wasn't the ham which I was fully aware of. I didn't really think it was appropriate to yell, "Hey, come look at the balls" with all of the kids around :)
The momma and the piglets
Wal-Mart sponsored the grandstand...boo.
The end.
