Adventure is really just poor planning.

l'll Take My Shoulder Rare.

Naked Man Attacked By Gator It's is things like this I am going to miss once I leave Florida. My first day here I was listening to a news story about two ladies who were trapped in their car for nearly four hours because the battery died and they didn't know how to operate the door locks manually. The news in →


Have Pineapple Will Travel

So I have a theory as to why chain restaurants are typically successful. Consistency is key. I know for a fact I can go to a MacDonald's anywhere in the world and without looking at the menu order a number one, and the person behind the counter will hand me a Big Mac and a soda. There is no risk →


I Feel Naked.

So I told myself yesterday that if the water park was closed due to cold weather, I would do something useful with my day. Needless to say when a supervisor called to tell me no one wanted to pick ice off the water slide so I don't need to worry about reporting in, I was less than shocked. So after four →


I Was Confident Till They Started Taking Their Pants Off

Standing in the middle of a parking lot this morning. I watched my breath hang coldly in the air and my first thought was, "why am I not wearing pants?" This actually stems from a few days ago when a co-worker of mine noticed me pedaling into to work and mentioned that the water park is supposedly organizing a race →


Each Bounce Loud, The Way You Think Of God’s Footsteps Being Loud

Unfortunately I am still using my old messenger bag that is rapidly falling apart until I get my new one completed. The zipper is broken and both flap clips are long gone. On my way into work today I was sprinting down a side road hoping I could still make it into work on time. Then I heard the sound every →


Courts got a brand new bag

So I have managed to put 50 or so miles on my new bicycle. Not very many for me, but I have been busy with another project lately. Aside from needing to finish my saddle adjustments I am pretty happy with my purchase. I think I will be able to make it across county on it will little issue at →


Black wind

As I am sure you can tell, the general site design and layout has changed once again. I am pretty happy with the overall presentation for now so I may stick with it for a bit. If anyone thinks they have a better idea or another way I could try things please don't hesitate to leave a comment. Well my first →


Maybe I don't want fries with that.

I really have to reconsider my dietary choices. Since I moved to Florida I started eating Macdonald's once to twice a week. I know it is horrible for me, but it is convenient and really cheap. I am really starting to reconsider since in the past three days there have been two heart attacks at my Macdonald's of choice. Maybe →


It's true!!

Well after a week of extremely boring classes it's finally true. I am once again a Red Cross certified life guard. Thanks to that, I now get to start work at the water park later on this week. After work today I was standing around in the parking lot talking to one of my coworkers. Once I pointed out the fact →


I'm Finally Official

My site got spammed for the first time last night. I feel so special. Unfortunately with all my planning for my upcoming adventure I haven't had time lately for any actual adventuring which is why my post have been so few and far between. I have also been taking time to catch up on my reading and general slacking off, in →
