So I got started on putting together the excercise machine. Holy crap, you should see the diagrams. I've never seen more complicated directions for something like this before. I think it would be easier to put together a uranium centrifuge. I worked on it for about 90 minutes before I had to quit for the evening. I was sweating more than my dad working outside on a hot day. (that's a lot- I now weigh 125lbs from water loss) I guess it'll be the weekend before it gets finally operational. It is just too frustrating to spend an entire evening working on.

The last two days I've woken up with really puffy eyes. I was thinking I was just tired, and I was, but now I think it probably is the MSG in the Chinese food- so I think I'm going to give it away to a dog that hangs out here. So pretty soon she'll look like a bloodhound I guess.

No pictures today, but in lieu of that, I'm providing a link to another guy's blog who has a ton of pictures from last weekend's events. http://weaver-in-samoa.blogspot.com/ There are ones from both days.

I watched Sin City tonight. (remember, I write these at night... right) I give it a 6.7

My goal for tomorrow morning is to go running before work. We'll see if I can make myself do it. I really hate running, but I need to get some cardio in. I also hate getting up extra early. I could probably run/walk combo to work in about an hour or so. It takes me about 20 minutes to get to work in the car but the max speed is 25 and there's traffic. The downsides are: running in a manskirt and that I'd be soaked from humidity by the time I got there. There certainly is no shower at work. There aren't even any fricking pens! I've asked assistants 3 times about pens. 2 times ladies gave me their (presumably only) pen, and another time a guy just had a pencil, but he advised me where good places to buy pens are. I'm not buying my own pens for work- there have to be some, but everthing is so unorganized nobody knows.

I'm guessing that the Huskies have played themselves into a position where even if they win their last couple league games and then get to the conference finals and lose, they won't make the tourney. They should just rest their good player(s) to make sure Brockman is rested for the tournament.

So Ichiro might leave if the M's still keep sucking. That's not much of a surprise is it? I think he won't if we get better, but if it is the same crap, he'll have to be traded at the deadline. The M's can't pass up the pile of good players they could get for him if they know he can't be kept. Money won't be an issue, but sucking will.

I'll try to bring my camera to work and have someone take a picture of me in a manskirt. Maybe I'll include a picture of the ridiculous diagram. I'll see about doing a better job of lighting this time.

I saw Lewis County wants NASCAR? They don't even have enough pavement to provide 3 lanes on the freeway. Lots of hicks though; maybe they could get it built on a volunteer basis.

Update: I got up to go running and it was raining unbelievably hard. It is still raining. I've never been in rain this hard. 5 seconds in it and you are drenched. At least it is warm still.
