I Am the Mighty Monkey Slapper!

We went over to my very good friend Doug's house last night for some food and fun. We had some awesome chicken, steak, potatoes, salad, and dessert. I ate a whole bunch. Just doing my part to make sure there weren't a lot of left overs to be brought home. ;)

We played some board games and I humbly report that I won both Scattergories and Trivial Pursuit! Of course I did have to sell a couple stretches in Scattergories but all in all I think it was a fair win. I hardly ever win any board games when we play over there so I was happy. I think the secret was the combo of comfy chair and presicely mixed concoction of Sprite and Jamacan Rum. I will have to do more research to be sure, of course.

I have five more business days until I go back on my regular, comfy, unlonley 9 to 5 shift! Yay! Working nights has a particular appeal but after a while it gets old. I like being there during the day when I actually have some one to talk to and if I need to call someone it's not waking them up. Waiting for shit to break in the middle of the night is fun and all, but I like the administrative side a little bit more.

I'm cranky today. Damn Canadian teenagers.

It gets hard for me to try and help people out when they get mad at me for it. Especially repeat offenders. I know I'm not the smartest or wisest or best anything out there, but I have learned things that are useful. And who knows, I may be right about one or two things. Why not just try and see if what I say is helpful instead of relying on snap judgments? The only time I give advice is when I care and feel that I can help. I don't just tell people stuff to do because I always assume I'm right and they're wrong. I'm not a bossy person. It's just hard on me to try so hard to help and then be blocked by a simple "meh".

I think I'll go swimming now, clear my head out. Have a great Sunday!
