I realized today that I'm not updating my blog anymore. Like, some actual stuff is happening in my life, and I'm not letting you know about it. I'm not quite sure why this is. I've never liked sharing about myself, and I guess maybe this is just me being quiet. So, perhaps this will update you abouts my life.
The summer is basically being spent working at a nursing home, and playing video games. Thats about it. My work consists of doing things like pouring milk into glasses, and then putting those glasses onto trays. Thats my life. Then washing dishes. Anyways, its a job. And it gives me the feeling that I'm not completely wasting my summer.
Anyway, I just learned today that stuff my last blog entry wasn't posted. But, in re-reading it, I also realized that I forgot to mention a funny story.
So, we were driving home from the mountain, I was driving, Seth was in the front passenger seat, Melissa and Brittney were in the back. Anyway, we hit a huge traffic thingy (everybody trying to escape from New Hampshire). Anyway, as we were driving, Brittney suddenly goes "EEEEKKKKK!!" a caterpillar. Apparently, a caterpillar was crawling on the back of my chair. So, the rational people in the car told her to put it on a piece of paper, and through it out the window. So, she finds some weird piece of cardboard, which is an ad for something, and manages to get the caterpillar on it.
Now, one would imagine that a certain percentage of people would roll down the window, and the rest would open the door. And you might suspect that the percent of people who would roll down the window would be something like 99.95%. This is probably a pretty accurate number. Which means that what, 1 out of 2000 people would open the door on a moving car instead of rolling down the window, in order to throw out the caterpillar. Now, I think that if I counted them all, I probably know about 2000 people. Now, of those 2000 people that I know, I ask myself, who would be most likely to open the door? Its pretty close, between my former roommate, Seth Burton (not the Seth on this trip), and Brittney. And I'm leaning slightly towards Brittney. But anyway, she is in fact the one person in 2000 who would open the door instead of roll down the window. So, after she does this, we all yell at her, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!!???!!!" To which she really doesn't have much to say. Now, we were only going abot 20 mph do to traffic, but its still unexpected, and if you're ever driving a car and somebody opens the door, I don't think you'd like it.
Anyway, after we inform her of the invention of windows, she sticks her arm out all the way, and starts waving the paper around. She does this for a few minutes, and it doesn't seem to work. By this time, it was bumper to bumper traffic, but the car behind us is about 100 feet behind us at all times, apparently scared of us. And I don't know this for a fact, but I'd be willing to bet that the doors were locked.
Anyway, so then we suggest that, instead of waving the paper around, she should try to scrape it off on the edge of the window. I bet you can't guess what she did next. Because I didn't. I mean, theoretically, everything she has done so far has made some sort of sense, and has a reason behind it. The thing that she does next doesn't. I makes no sense whatsoever. She rolls up the window, with her arm still out. Now, electric windows won't take off your fingers, let alone your arm, but it still must hurt a little bit. So there she was, with her arm trapped in the window, waving a piece of paper with a caterpillar on it. So, I take pitty on her, and roll down the window for her, (I can do that, I've got the master controls at my fingertips.) Anyway, so she finally tries scrapping the caterpillar off, and it flicks off, and lands right in her lap. At this, she screams, and I laugh histarically. Believe me, it was funny. So, eventually she gets the caterpillar out of the car, and a funny story into my blog.
