Well, I’m not actually doing any ‘real’ work on the place, but Squatz moved out today so I spent the afternoon cleaning and re-arranging everything. Stuff doesn’t look too different except for my room. I setup my bed (I’ve had my mattress on the floor for over a year) and now it’s going to be weird not sleeping 7″ off the ground. Also put up a couple more flags and the rest of my posters in my room. I’m liking the way things look. I also have all this extra space now. My front door isn’t blocked anymore either so maybe i’ll start parking out front so my car doesn’t get coated in dust every time some certain people fly by.
Got to see Dusty today and talk to him a bit. Also got to try a Cheerwine. It’s sorta like Dr. Pepper with cherry. If you think that sounds like a southern beverage then you guessed right. Sara, Elaine’s roomate, had some. It was pretty good. They also have a life-size cardboard thingy of some nascar driver promoting the beverage that they’re giving to Gus gus. Elaine and I were talking today and it seems a lot of people live on 2nd street. I guess it’s the cool place to live.
Well it’s back to work tomorrow. There’s still tons for Joe and I to do. Gary told him not to bother working his tail off over the weekend. That was very cool cause Joe hasn’t had much time to spend with the family as of late. Plus, even if he had, he still wouldn’t have gotten everything done. I couldn’t help him cause I can’t work overtime since I’m hourly. It’ll definitely be cool to see a lot of the people back this week. There’ll be student workers back in the ETC which can be cool and not so cool. I’m a supervisor of sorts so the good workers are fun to deal with and the not-good workers aren’t so fun to deal with. I guess that’s life though.
Cheerwine rules… I had my first taste when I was in SC a couple of weeks ago. the family brought back a couple of cases b/c you can’t get it in PA. didn’t send any to IN with me, though. =) good description of the taste.
