I could write a blog. I have thoughts.

Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

"Stay in the car." "My four favorite words."

See, people make fun of me for buying those gimic protection plans for headphones, but they don't realize how many pairs of earbuds I go through in a month.

Today I took in 2 broken sets after work and got them both replaced for free, huzzah!

I love Best Buy.

Though the Geek Squad's customer service is loathsome.

Like, I know you have lines of people and you're busy, but perhaps if you picked up the pace a bit or focused on your own customer instead of your coworkers 4 other customers you would get things done a little bit faster and in a more organized manner.

Was second in line, stood there for half an hour before anyone talked to me.

Makes me proud of our customer service skills at my library.

Which a lady mentioned to my supervisor today. Said I was much more patient and helpful than a different branch and that she was going to start coming to us instead.

Rock solid man.


So today...

Was good.

Flew by fast.

Did my final Library Golf preparations for tomorrow, now all that's left is to pick up the clubs, set up the holes and hope for the best.

I'm hoping that a lot of teens show up to participate.

But not like too many that will be overcrowded and overdramatic.

Or ones that think it's dumb and make fun of our arrangements.

I guess we shall see.


Other highlights include more training and special guest star visits from an old professor and the Authentically Amazing One and Only KB.

Whom I haven't seen in like months but we need a girls night.


And that's really all I remember about today. Oh, I uploaded my Summer Reading Kickoff pictures.

Yep, now that's all I remember about today.


Carter and I are jamming.

Watched Holly get eliminated on The Voice - called it, ugh Swon Brothers move on again.

Cassaddee Pope - my pick for last season's winner and actual winner - made a guest appearance unveiling her new single.

Is country.

And see, if she had any other coach things would be completely different.


Now we've moved on to Chuck season one.

Okay, more like moved back to Chuck season one.

Cause the boyfriend is having a bad day which means I'm having a bad day so naturally I flew back to a comedy - oh speaking of comedies, and anther thing I had forgotten about today...

BossLady and I think we should install a movie night for staff morale - ha!

We're thinking Emperor's New Groove.

It's classic.

The old intern and I were discussing our favorite animated movies, we're both fans of Robin Hood and Aladdin.

Then of course I had to ramble about the whole half of the Disney princes don't even have names let alone lines spiel, go here: Sketch and Edit Watch a Movie

But I think Emperor's New Groove is probably the funniest just because of Kronk and David Spade.

I have no idea what his actual name is, I just call him Kronk when I see him.

Though "Kronk's New Groove" was horrible. Don't watch it.

Where was I?

Oh right, Chuck.

Watched it while I did more homework.

I'm loving this whole one credit class thing. There are no due dates for the homework, it's all just "get it done by the last day of the semester" aka like the end of July.

Though I'll probably do it all on some weekend and get it over and done with.

Discussion Boards for my other class may kill me, especially this week as there are three, but I'm trying to keep up.

But that's it for tonight. I'm exhausted and calling it.

Carter and I are gonna crash.


Music and I'm out.

Here are some of my favorites from Chuck:

Fortunate Son - Jeffster


Jeffster rocks it.

Get Outta My Dreams - Billy Ocean

yep. that's all I got.


Oh.

I found the bug.

But it's too high.

And all of my chairs move when I stand on them.

And you know me and movable chairs.

Dressers fall over.

I pass out.

Smash my foot.

They call the Dean and then the whole world knows.

And yesterday when I tried to reach and smash it I totally missed so it's gotta be watching out for me now.

stupid bugs.

Don't wake up in a road side ditch.

Things I learned today:

-In Duluth, Minnesota it is illegal to allow animals to sleep in a bakery.

-In Idaho, you may not fish on a camel's back.

-All of the earth's continents are wider at the north than in the south - and nobody knows why.

-A group of frogs is called an army.

-90% of women who walk into a department store immediately turn to the right.


(those may be complete crap, just FYI)

-No matter how well-planned out things may seem, they can still go sideways.

The last one was especially true for today. They've finished the majority of the painting which means that books go back on the wall along the outside - or the car manuals at least cause that's their new permanent location.

When they took them down they attempted to keep them in order on the shelves and then line up the shelves so that it would be easier to put them back up....but the plan failed a bit.

Mostly because the lines they were put in were a bit out of order. But whatever, two hours later they were fixed and up.

The movers were seriously impressive, the Awesome Aide and I sat back and watched as these muscle-bound guys picked up the shelves with the books still on them and carried them around the room, then lifted them over their head and installed them.

And these are heavy books.

Dude.

Anyway, as well-planned as it was, since they weren't putting them back in the same section as they took them down it turned into a bit of a mess.

But we got it.

One of the dudes said if something goes wrong they'd have my back.

So Chet's Moving Service has got my back.

Made me feel special, haha.

But there was a lot of re-shelving things and organizing today which made me realize all this new supplies stuff I need to order, blah. I'm behind, but that'll be my goal for tomorrow: order conquer, tape, baskets, batteries....there was more but I'm blanking. Good thing I wrote it down.

Aside from the constant running all over the place was the constant heat which didn't help things but we're in Nebraska so we're used to it, anyway we found ways to distract ourselves, talking about the big game and our favorite commercials which is a frequent topic between myself and The New Guy.

Here are some of our favorites:

Make 7-Up Yours!

i love orlando jones and this is fantastic.

Don't Wake Up in a Road Side Ditch

"when people think you're tough people want to see how tough..."
it's just so random!!! i love it! and all the other variations, but this is the best.

Darth Vader and a Volkswagen

love it.

ALL ABOARD!!!! The 5G Train!

"i dunno, kinda looks like a girl"

That's Brisk, Baby!

too funny.

okay, there's no way i can not post these.

I want a Golden Darthy!!

"...well that blows..."

That kid's got game

"and the babes start snickerdoodling and then you go on lots of dates!"

gonna have to show those to my brother, fantastic.

Song of the night:

Because Jordis is in my top 5 for The Voice and she rocked it tonight, here's her blind audition

"Maybe I'm Amazed" Jordis Unga

dig it.

and a long jacket.

"Hey, don't encourage him. This isn't happy hour at Chili's."

Off at 3:00, didn't know what to do with myself! Seriously! I did lists all morning pulling stuff to be boxed up although it took a while since it's sorted by author instead of series. But I've got it covered.

So I spent the afternoon at Best Buy, got some seasons of Chuck and the 4th of Charlie's Angels. Huzzah! All on sale, btw. Loving it.

But I chose getting those instead of going to Target and getting food. Will do that tomorrow between shifts. Ordered a hamburger and some fries. It was fantastic.

As I have no much else to say I'm keeping it short.



"Short Skirt and a Long Jacket" Cake


Have a good one. I'm headed back to this before I crash.


wonder what song they used for that....


OUT!

"What's a Bieber?" - extended clips and a world of superbowl fun


the extended cut "ALL ABOARD!! the 5G train."


the bloopers of the extended cut "I am the prince of darkness!!"

hahahahahaha, oh man, my sister and niece and I watched the extended cut over and over. It was our favorite, followed closely by Cars.com's "Is it safe?" *gets hit by arrows* "Nope." or any of Pepsi Max's and then that hotel tester thing with the "test baby" Cindy was so offended by that "Smashing a baby against a window?! That's just wrong!!" Then after we found it online it she said it, "brings a tear of hilarity to my eyes." She was mostly offended by the smushy baby face against the window. But her trying to be offended by the commercial while laughing so hard at it made Mandy fall over, literally. If only commercials were always this enjoyable.

Time with family is always fun. I don't remember which play it was but, Mandy was like "how many guys was that?" Then, my nephew, while doing math, answers, "Four: him, himself, and that other guy." "That's three," Rick and I chimed in at the same time. So funny and ironic as he was doing math homework at the time.

Then Sue Sylvester making them slap themselves with chicken cutlets, oh man. Mom loved it. Hilarious. Although, the best song on there was probably "bills, bills, bills" performed by Dalton Academy - well, for me anyway it brought me back to grade school, gotta love Destiny's Child. Yep, Me = Generation when Destiny's Child was more than just Beyonce. There were 6 altogether; it started with 4 then 2 left and they got 2 more then 1 left then they split and started sueing each other, and only Kelly and Beyonce had any success. and yes I was a fan I'm sure you can tell.

Today was kind of funny. Cause now I officially live in this apartment. I mean I've slept here since May but now I officially live here because now there's stuff hung up on the walls. It feels weird. It's like permanent. Plus I have a new TV which was a bday present but I got it early cause they had time to buy it and set it up. So now I actually have a living room that's livable. It looks completely different. That means I should probably start hanging up posters in my bedroom. Yep, that generation again, get over it.

Tomorrow means halfday and it's the later half so I can still sleep in and eat breakfast and stuff. In the morning. Breakfast in the morning? What a concept!!
