I scored a deal on new snowboard pants. Wicked awesome! Bright green super waterproof and breathability! They were $119 and 30% off. I was too scared someone else was going to buy them so I jumped to the opportunity. That's the sad part of the story....
Cashier "your total is $41.23" Me "that's it? Oh man I am so glad I bought these today that's a steal. I thought 30% of $119 was a good deal!!! Yay yay yay" Cashier "oh you're right! Your total is $91.85" Me "wait what just happened? Are you serious?" Cashier "yeah sorry I thought you got them off a different rack" Me " " paid him in silence. It was such a good deal untill the realization it could have been the best deal of the century. Now it's hard to be excited. I keep dwelling on honesty vs a wicked sweet price.
Moral of the story kids: it doesn't pay to know math!
PS the pic provided does NOT give these awesome pants justice! See ya on the hill
Another reason I love Tim and Rise Against and all the words he says:
"when enough is enough that's when you know that you're halfway there"
"To the fight in the desert where progress stands still. When we've lost our will That's how we'll know This is not a test, oh no This is cardiac arrest Of a world too proud to admit our mistakes We're crashing into the ground as we all fall from grace"
"This is a chance to set things straight To bend or break the rules back into place There is no middle ground, no compromise We've drawn the line With perfect aim, we stand back and throw Glass windows break and it's all about to blow Lights go out as we pass the torch again In hope that is stays lit"
"Neutrality means that you don't really care Cuz the struggle goes on even when you're not there Blind and unaware"
"is this the point where we give up? now is this the point where we give in? now is this the point where we turn ourselves in? or is this the time to ask questions? or is this the time to seek answers? now is this the time to throw it all in?"
"this is the point where we stand up now this is the point where we take back the things that are keeping us from being free"
"To the sound of a heartbeat pounding away To the rhythm of the awful rusted machines We toss and turn but don't sleep Each breath we take makes us thieves Like causes without rebels Just talk but promise nothing else We crawl on our knees for you Under a sky no longer blue We sweat all day long for you But we sow seeds to see us through'Cause sometimes dreams just don't come true We wait to reap what we are due. To the rhythm of a time bomb ticking awayAnd the blare of the sirens combing the streets Chased down like dogs we run from Your grasp until the sun comes up"
"White needles buried in the red The engine roars and then it gives But never dies'Cause we don't live We just survive On the scraps that you throw away"
Now some of you are questioning my loyalty to 311. It must be said that 311 shaped my young impressionable life into who I am today. And for it I've seen them live over 20 times including TWO 3/11 days. So why am I not the first one to hear about their new album coming out right now and the new spring tour? Let me put it this way. 311 is my family. They are my unsung hero and will always be there for me when I need them. They know I love them and that love is eternal just like my real family. Rise Against is my new bff and all I want to do is hang out with them and cause trouble all the time.
Wikipedia says it was founded in 1881, a pallandrom AND exactally 100 years before I was born! It was also nick named the New Chicago, and Chicago is my favorite city! This city is named after Mary Ann Deming Crocker, wife of Charles Crocker, one of the big rail road guys. And this is the city that houses the Silver Spike. And I live in the city close to the GOLDEN SPIKE. Imagin the odds! It's all coming up Me!
And is DEMING, not DEMMMING. And if you are Luke; it Deminggggggggah!
Everyone says that girls are attracked to jerks. My personal friends have told me I am attracted to douche bags. Well with the excitement of the movie the Watchman coming out, I found out for myself that this is all very true.
The Comedian is Hot:
Cartoon or the guy playing him in the movie, hot. Is it the dark hair, the no need for authority, the rippling muscles, or even stoogie (you know how girls like to change a guy). This guy in the book is the most disgusting, push over, rude, inappropriate, hurtful being out there. But just looking at him...hot!
Other bad boys on the list:
This guy. I think we all know how much I hated that book, and there isn't even get a good description of this dude compared to "edward" (quotations are used to show fluctionation in tone of a 16 yr old romantic saying his name.) And I haven't seen the movie but I read an article he was in and couldn't get him out of my mind for a few days. Hot? or evil?
Lets keep the list going. I have a deep down crush on those totally punked out guys with tatoos that cover both arms. I mean gross, those guys could have a disease, but to me... Hot!
In the musical Les Miserables, Marius is the cutie with a huge heart, but I was always drawn to Enjolras. Fisty, strong, brave, frenchman. Even on stage with crappy seats....Hot!
Another good one, in the movie 300, Leonidas is pretty amazing, but I still had a draw f excitment from the politician, Theon:
This guys just has an evil look that is sexy. He is pure evil in the movie and possibly into boys, and not the warrior with a 6pack, but dre still says...HOT. Have you noticed a trend yet? All evil guys have or close to having a MUSTACHE?
Evil and the stache. But in real life are mustaches hot? Well that's just it, I find facial hair to be the number one thing that attacts me to men. Always a fan of a 3 to 5 day growth. Beard or stache, I love em both, that is to say you have enough hair to not look creepy.
And the final bad boy of them all, the man I will always love, Rhett Butler.
So brass, so rude, so honest, so rich, so extravagant, so knows how to treat a lady, and a whore. A man that so few allowed in their social circles, but so many he charmed.
So why do girls like the bad boys. I hate to be a cliche but I really can't help it. They are just sooo, so, so, something that draws me in. I went as far to come up with a list of non-hot good boys:
Ted from HIMYM. That guy is such a complainer, so whiny!
Edward Cullen. I think this guy even has a period. to mushy.
That elf dude from lord of the rings. such an albino soft spoken, archer! Come on get in the real fight!
David archuletta.
Leo Decaprio, his face looks like he's 12. But with his weight gain he looks normal.
Zac Effron, they guy dances with high kicks. not manly.
Shia Lebouf, whiner and baby face.
But putting much effort into it and the more I watch HIMYM, I really really want a Marshall. That goofy guy that isn't afraid to show how much Lilly means to him, and goes to great legnths to prove it to her. His dorky singing when he does house hold chores, his solid reasoning, hard work ethic, good friendships, and a bit old fashion. You know I want a guy that I can yell his name from the sunroof of a limo and he would find me. The guy that brags about the list of women he's slept with is called his marriage licence. The guy that writes sappy notes in for the living will. So if you do find that guy, send him my way.....and tell him to grow a mustache!
On my work trip to Moab, not the fun trip with Luke, I took these videos. They are now loaded. So Please enjoy these next few videos.....you will find a beauty of YouTube of Dre. Yes, that drive was sooo annoying alone I have a few segments where I try to comprehend WHAT afi is saying in their songs. I love the music but I am so confused on the meanings. What? what? So I attempted to figure it out.
Real Lyrics:
"Open my eyes as I submerge and I won't deny what I've been since birth. I'll die drowned by your standards. Breathe in the life of the summmer's death as the orange and red breathe their first breath, so welcome as they're burning through. We all begin to burn. Autumn's flame dance's in my eyes"
Real Lyrics: "We all begin to burn. Autumn's flame dance's in my eyes Set alight for all we've learned. My ashes falling. My skin is singed but it heals my heart and with glowing pride I'll wear my scars."
Real Lyrics: "I know... It's here we retreat, for where else could we go? To great disbelief there is somewhere we belong. In negative space supposed flaws go unseen, but our strength is shown. In darkness together we're bringing the light. In darkness together we are forming. The fire tomorrow is born of the night, in darkness together we ignite. From all we've been shunned but we found a new home. To great discontent it is greatness that we own. In luminous eyes, reflections of fear absolute... All hate what we've become. In darkness together we're bringing the light. In darkness together we are forming. The fire tomorrow is born of the night, in darkness together we ignite. Through our will we bring fear."
Real Lyrics: "Through our bleeding, we are one. Through the darkness breaks the light. Through the light unending pain. Deify the wretched ones till the darkness comes again."
Look at the title. Yes, patients is everything, even if it means driving anything other than a PT cruiser. Those cars are soooo awful! Mostly I'm talking the way it looks, but the drive itself isn't great. So even though I was already 2 hours behind my travel plans I gladly waited 30 mins to get a Hundya!! Deal with the spelling error, I think it's cute.
So I had to go to Moab for work, so I had to go alone and I have discovered THAT I SHOULD not TRAVEL ALONE. I get so bored so fast. Who knew I need entertainment. So I am posting some awesome photo's of my boredom!
Here I am about to enter the canyon. This canyon is right by my parents house so it's sentimental a little. But now these giant wind power gizmos are there. It's actually impressive when you get that close to them.
The sunset was "re-donk-ulous" so here is a picture of that awesomness.
While driving through town it was dark and I came across this sign. I pulled two U turns so I could get a good picture! Scared? yes I was, but scared with laughter!
I ended up staying at a bed a breakfast overnight and I was the only one there, well me and the image of this creepy cardboard sign holding a butcher knief. I mean really that sign is crazy. It was fun being in a historic house all alone that I didn't have to clean up after myself. My favorite part of the night was watching family guy I laughed so hard I heard it echo-o upstairs.
Moving on I did stop by the Arches National Park vistor center. I snagged these quick pics.
I really wanted to take these pics for all those that have not been to SouthEast Utah in a while. I forget how crazy beautiful it is there and how amazing it is. Best place to spend family trips. Thanks Ma and Pa, and Trav and Rachel that one trip before you guys got married.
Okay this photo I wanted to throw in there because I love horizons where land and sky blend so well. Something I rarelly get to see surrounded by mountains. Although I love the mountains MORE. Being in the middle of nowhere, you see some colors that you can only find in the middle of no where!
Now to some good stuff. Last time I was in price (for work) I swear I found a store called "things and stuff" a store I was interested in seeing what was inside. Things or Stuff? If I bought someone a present there would it be a thing or would it be stuff? Well I couldn't find it, but I found other stuff:
I scored a deal on new snowboard pants. Wicked awesome! Bright green super waterproof and breathability! They were $119 and 30% off. I was too scared someone else was going to buy them so I jumped to the opportunity. That's the sad part of the story....
