Saturday Morning Madness.

Well not really madness, but it was stupid enough for a headline that I left it up there anyway. Not much to write here actually, but I've been thinking of writing in this here blog for a few days, but haven't gotten around to it. This will be more of a Saturday Morning Tidbits edition I suppose.

Had a dream a few weeks ago that has stuck with me since that time. I was lying in bed on my right side and all of a sudden my body detached from my actual body and started drifting horizontally backwards out away from my actual body, which was still lying in bed. I'd say my ghost form got about five or six feet away before I woke up. Not sure why that's stuck with me, but it has. Sort of like a near death experience where I start drifting up towards the light, but in this case I started drifting towards the bathroom, which means I probably just had to piss.

I'm patiently waiting this morning for my roommate Justin to wake up from his normal Saturday morning/early afternoon slumber. We're supposed to go to Shokolad for breakfast, but knowing him that may end up being lunch. Not sure I can wait that long. Not sure what sort of trouble he got into last night with Jody, as I ended up calling it a night pretty early so I could continue reading my book and get to sleep. I'm reading The Town by Chuck Hogan, which is my Mom's maiden name. Not Chuck, but Hogan. God that would be odd if my Mom's name was Chuck. She'd still be my Mom and I'd love her no less, but still...

Found a large sum of money on the floor at work on Friday around 11:30 am. This is the second time this has has happened to me over the nine years or so I've been there. Probably payback for the time my small cup of change, which was in my drawer got stolen. That was a long, long time ago. Regardless, I was pretty shocked when I picked it up and started flipping through the bills. (I've deleted this part just in case someone besides my four readers stumbles upon this blog before Monday. Don't want them to know the quantity involved) Quite a nice chunk of change if I do say so myself. Stuffed it in my pocket and went about my day as if nothing happened. Well for about 15 minutes anyway, as I soon sent out an email to all the employees letting them know I had found some money to see if anyone had lost it. Many people claimed the money, but no one could provide any identifying details which led me to believe they were trying their best to deceive. Actually not their best, but it was entertaining for a few hours. Anyway five o'clock rolled around and I rolled out of work with a nice little bonus for the week. We'll see if anyone tries to put in a claim on Monday. Not counting my chickens before they hatch.

Cut my finger at work on Wednesday this week. Sliced off a pretty decent chunk of skin on my right index finger. It's healing slowly I suppose. Sort of resembles a piece of sushi. White on the outer ring and a nice pink color on the inside of the wound. Good thing I didn't have to play pool this Wednesday as it was a bit painful and the band-aid kept getting in the way. Also as you may have read on Facebook, I can't pick my nose now. Tough times my friends. Very tough times.

I've already used the word chunk twice in this post as well as the name Chuck. I don't know what this means, but I thought it should be mentioned.

Now I'm at an impasse. The mind has gone blank. The fingers have gone stiff. The ears have...well the ears haven't gone anywhere actually. Listening to the Local Natives album Gorilla Manor. Bought this as it was on my friend Bill's top album list of 2010. So far so good.

I had a 90 minute massage on Thursday. I highly recommend these things, but I'm not really willing to shell out $165 for these sorts of things. I only paid $35 or something like that as it was a You Swoop deal. Well that and the tip. It was pretty damn nice though. Katie did a fine job. However, I did go for a run this morning and my legs seemed pretty shot, which I sort of blame on the massage. She really did a number on my calves. Perhaps it had nothing to do with it, I don't know. Perhaps I just wasn't feeling it this morning. I battled through anyway.

Okay now I know I'm boring all of you. I've lost track of all sense of blog decency so this is the end.
