Hows my little bad news bear?

I have had a interesting past 30 hours ish
I drove my good pal Sam home because I am a good soul Thursday night. because she did the right thing and called for a sober cabbie, and the staab and I pulled through. My tummy wasn't feeling so hot though. I was thinking it was kind of an echo from Wednesday nights activities. When I got home I decided sleep was a good idea.

It turned out to only be an Idea until about 3:30 ish when I barfed my my mac and cheese and OJ that I had for dinner. barfing is never a pleasant activity. So after about three or four more trips to the bathroom I decided to take a look at Web MD again, after all they did tell me about my appendicitis. Here was the lesson learned, if you vom and you have a little red in it, head on over the the Doc.

So that is what I did at 5:45 in the morning.

I got in they hooked my up to an IV I barfed some more pooped in my gown while sleeping and had a nurse wipe my ass. which was awkward and kind of pleasant all at the same time. It takes some sort of level of pride to let someone wipe your ass, but man when you realize that you are getting all cleaned up and not an ounce of effort is going in it, it is kind of satisfying. It might have been the morphine though.

If you haven't experienced morphine I recommend it sometime, when you sleep your dreams feel so real, when I was awake though I was pretty useless, but they only gave one dose of that. so that was good, I guess that stuff can be pretty addicting though.

so after that fun stuff I finally stopped barfing and they said looks like you're spending the night here! I responded with a hearty, yay.....

on the good side of it though on MTV2 there was a next marathon for like 2 hours, so that was really thrilling, I love that show.

Laura and Sam came and visited me for a couple of hours as well, and it was great to see them they came bearing gifts and it was quite delightful to have conversations with them rather than the same 60 yes or no questions the doctors and nurses would ask me.

I don't think I have heard wow you are tall so much in such a small amount of time either. it is ridiculous how many times I heard it. and it is such and awkward statement because someone always expects me to respond with something, more often than not I would respond with yep, I'm a tall drink of water... And then there is always the LAME follow-up question, do you play basketball? I usually respond pleasantly with a not anymore track was my thing. It was as if the only sport tall people can do is basketball, some of the best hockey players are taller than me, randy moss is only an inch shorter than me, Mark McGwire is as tall as me too. I'm only bitter because I really don't like basketball, high school effectively killed it for me.

After my stay I am still not quite sure what made me sick, what I heard from the doctors was a gastro-intestinal infection, stomach flu, the 24 hour flu, and heat stroke. But what ended up keeping me in the hospital was my dehydration.

Unfortunately I wont be attending the wine and cheese party because of this but I think it will be for the better.



Just talked to my good buddy Pete from Bemidji and found out that one of my friends who we hung out with a lot, Luke, lost a leg in Iraq by stepping on a land mine. I guess he is lucky to be alive because the mine was meant for a jeep. Couldn't have happened to a better kid.

Hows my stupid heart?

My heart has been doing itst thing a bunch today, one glass of mountian dew/pink lemonade can not be the explination for it...lame.

still alive though

I saw the new pirates movie...Its great!
pay no attention to the preview, it doesnt make the movie look as good as it is. and its a record breaker too! check out what cnn had to say about it.

Johnny Depp's boozy, woozy buccaneer Jack Sparrow has plundered the box office, with "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" taking in a record $132 million in its first three days, according to studio estimates Sunday.

Disney's swashbuckling sequel sailed past the previous all-time best debut, 2002's "Spider-Man," which took in $114.8 million in its first weekend.

"Dead Man's Chest" also did nearly three times the business of its predecessor, "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl," which took in $46.6 million over opening weekend in 2003.

The sequel surpassed that total in its first day alone, taking in $55.5 million Friday to beat the previous single-day record of $50 million, set last year by "Star Wars: Episode III -- Revenge of the Sith." With $44.7 million on Saturday, "Dead Man's Chest" also became the first movie to top $100 million in just two days.
"Dead Man's Chest" reeled in 43 percent of the $305 million total domestic gross the original "Pirates" rang up in its entire six-month theatrical run.

amazing huh?
I will be home moday and tuesday to help my parents move, and hopefully see my brother and his family.

work can be very stressful
canadians refer to the letter 'z' as zed, why?

Hows my little mover?

Turns out my parents are moving on the 16th now. They are closing on the house on july 14th instead of the 17th they plan on taking off for Covington, Indiana the 16th. With luck I will be able to work it out with work that I can come home and camp in my house that I grew up in for my last time, then from here out My visits to home will consit of crashing on someone's couch.

This move hasn't really stirred up much emotion from me one way or another. Its a good deal for ma and pa becuase they are off doing something better, and moving forward with life. Amanda is living there for part of the summer before she moves to ireland for a semester. I am firmly planted in duluth until I finish college.

In the past year I think i can use most of my fingers and toes to count the few nights I have spent in my bed in Arden Hills, so its not affecting me too much. One thing I will miss is coming back and seeing my high school pals during the holidays. I haven't seen the new place yet but I am told it is very nice, in a quiet neighborhood on a golf course....in Indiana.

One thing I told my mom that I thought was funny was that I am garunteed to not move in with them after I am done with college, because hell if I move to po-dunk Indiana to take time off from school or work. I am a city boy, thats for sure.

Hows my little pumpkin tit?

I have my phone again, it works.
Please call me, I like doing things.
Back in Duluth and working, I like my job.
I wish that i could make people who are upset more uset.
I get some pretty witty comments when they are yelling at me.
The happy and fun people make it worthwhile though.
Headed to justin's cabin on the 5th.
A smart person once told me, youre not supposed to leave a bottle of wine open for more than 3 days. I think you can hold that out for about 5, but when you hit 8 it tastes really really bad.
I am working during fireworks on the 4th
lame ass shit
Have fun!
