Or is it atypical? Whatever…
As many of you may (or may not) know, I like to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Something about all those peanuts floating in all that wonderful buttery goodness topped with some jam, yum. But I digress. I was eating said food at work today and my co-worker commented that if I keep eating them like I do I’ll turn into a peanut. To this I pointed out the fact that I also eat a lot of apples, why wouldn’t I turn into an apple? And he told me, “it’s hard to turn into a fruit when you’re already one.” So we both laughed for a while and then I was the only one laughing… cause I kicked him in the crotch.
The above story was based on true events. The names of all parties have been changed to protect the inocent.
There was this contest on Google for the Da Vinci Code stuff that I was doing. It wasn’t very hard but it was a good way to waste 5min at luch each day. Anyway, they were only going to let the first 10000 people who finished and registered to advance to the second stage and they get one of those neat cryptex thingies. So I finished it fairly quickly and go to do the registration thing and when I hit done, the stupid program tells me that the contest is ended. This strikes me as odd seeing as it won’t even let me register so I try again. Same thing. I try again a few hours later and it lets me. WTF is up with that. Now I’m not saying that I was in the first 10000 people, but I had the whole thing done in 4min and I really wanted that cryptex. I’m going to be slow burning that for a while. Grrrrrrr.
On another note, got the call about the bent part on my bike, $40. Stupid designers made the part more integrated into the bike for god knows what reason, but it doubled the price. So I’m having them order two for me so I won’t have to wait a long time for my bike to be repaired next time something like this happens.
I also did some shopping at REI to use my 20% off coupon. I was only expecting to spend $100 at most, but I’m a bad boy. I’m not going to share how much I spent but along with the climbing gear I got, I also bought a rediculously over featured bike computer, but it’s going to be awesome.
I know I said shorter and I tried, but meh, if it bothers you, I’m sure I’ll hear about it.
