AHHHH!!!

They're driving me nuts already! My god.... First off, I ended up helping my dad build the trellace, however the hell you spell it, over the deck in the backyard. Well, the only issue I ahd with that was that I wanted to be packing the cars so I didn't have to do it tonight. Well eventually he finally let me go do the stuff that I had started. That's one thing that really really bugs me, starting something and then not finishing and then starting something else, I just can't do it. He let me go back to what I was doing, I got everything brought upstairs and ready to pack into the cars and then bam, he asks me to help again, as it turns out, for about 3 hours, not 10 minutes like I had hoped. So I'm already a little on edge. Then I finally get to go back to my packing again, I got my entire car packed, so tight I could barely shut the doors or the trunk. So there really wasn't much left to put in my dad's truck. Apparently the futon, which is still in the box, was a bit too tall for the hard tonneau cover that he has on the bed of his truck. Which I told him he shouldn't get on his truck, for instances like this, but he doesn't listen. Well, I said that we could fit it in the back seat, and apparently nobody believed me because then my dad had me go with him down to the warehouse to get this fucking huge ass trailer, bigger than the truck, just as long and even taller than it. Well, we ended up putting the futon, fridge, desk chair, tv stand, and a few random boxes that were already packed in my car. THAT'S IT!!!! The fact that he insisted we get the trailer from the warehouse didn't really bug me, other than the fact that we're gonna block the whole effin' street when I go to move in tomorrow. What bugged me is that he kept me from doing my stuff so I could help him all day, and then when I finally got to do my stuff he stopped what he was doing to come out and take charge of what IIII was working on. ARGH!!! I'm still angry. Especially because I KNOW that I could have made it work without the trailer and if they would've just let me do it, I would be fine right now. Oh well, that's probably going to end up being the least stressful part of the weekend. Now I get to look forward to my stepmom's neverending remarks on how we should do stuff and where it should go and what I should do with MY stuff in MY room. I'm sure it'll be a lot like this summer, where she holds the door open for my dad and I and then sits on her ass telling me her opinion, and if I disagree with anything I get the old, "well we don't have to help you move, you asked us to." Which is the stupidest thing to say. My dad always gives her this look, as if to say, "don't speak for me" or "you're on your own in this argument." AND THEN!!! I get to go golfing with them, which ordinarily would be a way for me to get rid of some pent up stress. But now I have new golf clubs that I got for my birthday, and I know I won't hear the end of it if I don't play really really well. Why you ask?? Well frankly because my dad is a dick when it comes to certain things and cares more about money than he does about a lot of things, at least when it comes to my life. He told me that I shouldn't get the golf clubs, that I should just take the money my mom was gonna spend on them and use it toward my car, which was conveniently when I had to get it fixed. Well I decided against it, and took the clubs. He's brought it up like three times since I've been here already. Ugh... Are everyone's parents this annoying when it comes to their child's life!?!?! For your sake, I hope not. Oh well, I'll be free by 2:00 on Monday, hopefully. And after all this hassle, if they don't buy me some groceries after I move in, I may just go insane. Poooor wiggum... I gotta go find a way to settle down... I may just have an aneurism yet today, I wish it were like 10:00 already so my dad would be in bed. This just may be the longest day ever, and tomorrow will be at least as bad. I just want to get back to O Claire. I'm almost looking forward to starting classes, almost, and working again is actually not a bad idea. But more than anything I wanna get back down to Des Moines again, I know it's only been 16 days, but it seems like a very long time, and could be as long as 21 more days. :( Well, I gotta go find something to do, maybe I'll go fishing, how can you help but get more relaxed while fishing eh?

Have a nice summer!

EC in the summertime..

In theory it's a good idea. No parents, lot's of money from work. Take some extra credits. WRONG! The reality of it all is that until the two of my room mates that are staying for the summer return, I'm going to be bored out of my mind! I've looked in the fridge like 50 times in the last 10 minutes. I watched a movie that was a good way to kill a couple hours, but I just keep thinking, until I start class monday, what can I do in my spare time?? So, any ideas, let me know. Let's see what you guys can come up with, just post them as comments, it'll be a game. We'll see who can come up with the best idea for what Ryan should do when he's bored. Have a nice summer!

RIP Mitch

Mitch Hedberg was found dead in his hotel room yesterday morning. What a sad day. December 27th 2003 David, Mark, and I went to the Rosemont theater in Rosemont, IL. Very near to Chicago. We had tickets to see Lewis Black, Dave Attell, and "Special Guest." I don't think any of us knew who the special guest was, until he was announced. That was probably the coolest part of the trip, not only did we get to see Lewis and Dave, but Mitch Hedberg as special guest. I'm so glad we got to see him. If I remember correctly David and I were going to see him again, but it didn't work out. Now I really wish that would've worked. Anyway, I would like to commemorate this as Mitch Hedberg weekend. I'll put a random Mitch Hedberg joke up as often as I feel like doing. At least one per day. What a terrible loss to the comedy community, you'll be missed.

So, I just woke up at 11:19 or so. Which is only 49 min. late for class. and only 40 min. left in class. So i figured, by the time I found some clothes and put them on, and ran down there, walked up the three flights of stairs, there would probably only be 10 or 15 min. left. So i just went on my computer. And Adam was logged on in the lab that our class is held in, so he let me know what was going on. Well andyway, I gotta work tonight 4-12, and I'd just like to congratulate Tara on single handedly defeating the giant cricket type thing that even shadow (her cat) was afraid of. I didn't like it much either, but it ran away from me, so I couldn't kill it. In other news... I need to put up a new Fun Fact so here goes... Fun Fact #2: Americans, on the average, eat 18 acres of pizza a day. Have a nice summer!
