during these four hours brain tends to go in loops and loops like "all shiny and chrome! shiny and chrome" shinyandchromeshinyandchrone let me die and go to valhalla"
Bad choice. I'm pretty sure the folks there have lots of metal implements that they'ld like to have cleaned. :P

All penguins are majestic

(Seriously though, how does that species even survive)
Seriously: By being much better at swimming and hunting fish than at moving around in the place they only raise their defenseless young in.

July 15th, 2014, Rexburg Idaho experienced a massive thunderstorm that resulted in heavy flooding, the displacement of hundreds, and the destruction of millions of dollars of property - right on top of Finals Week.

July 15th, 2015, Rexburg Idaho loses power city-wide, is nearly hit by a tornado, and has a terrorist shooting threat.

Can you guess where I won't be next year this time?

Hee, yeahno. Unless, miraculously, our savior Minna were to be there...

Also, it's weird because Rexburg is known for its dryness, stable infrastructure, mountains, and kind people. July 15th seems to be city-wide opposite day, maybe?

I sustained so many papercuts working in a law office that I am pretty sure I single-handedly (no pun intended) used every single band-aid they had in the break room first-aid kit.

Spoiler: show
and then there was that HILARIOUS time when one of them got infected and swollen and full of grossness and I had to take antibiotics for a week

Paper cuts are bad. Slicing your hand open with a sheet of glass you're trying to cut is worse, although then you're mostly panicked about getting blood all over the client's glass.
That joke beneath the spoiler is truly hilarious.

ahahaha haa I've been wondering how your job is going! I hope your hands will heal swiftly


I'm probably gonna be stuck in polishing hell all week (including saturday because I didn't go to work yesterday). today I got to start with polishing glasses for a change, and it feels like time is going faster and that I'm getting more effective, but it's still dragging. even worse was towards the end where the more experienced workers got to do other things and were replaced by some newbie boys, even I was more effective than them... I don't think they realized there were two more boxes waiting for us once we were done with that one. ha ha ha
you'll know where to find me.
