Notes on a Monday

It took me AN HOUR to get to work this morning.  I severely loathe trains.  And don't get me started on Vine Street.

Let's talk about these cars:





















You know what I'm talking about.  Rocket vans.  I just lose it every time I see this car.  Thank you Oldsmobile, for years of laughter.  Brother 
gets a kick out of them, too.  I'm actually kind of afraid that he's going to buy one, just for the irony.

If you ever get the chance to tour an interactive cave environment (virtual world) with a blazed tour guide, TAKE IT.  That was definitely the best 3 1/2 hours ever spent at work.  Yes, it took him 3 1/2 hours to get through a 45 minute presentation.  Glorious.  Even better than the time I spilled a beer on some lady at the Restaurant.  (It was on purpose and I didn't get fired.  YES.)

The Manager inadvertently let it slip that he had a sample model that would have saved me hours of work a couple weeks ago.  SWEET, man.  Thanks a billion.  Luckily he was too far away to kick.  And Fellow OSU Intern's manager was there.  She scares the crap out of me.

It is officially the last week of the Internship.  FINALLY.  Roommate is back in Columbus already, which makes it doubly hard to be here... Miss you Roomie, see you Friday!

I had an interesting experience at church yesterday.  It was the first time I had been to church since the shootings at one of our churches in Knoxville, TN in July.  Needless to say, I was nervous... which only increased when I got there and had to be escorted to the sanctuary by a Cincinnati policeman.  Seriously?!  Who hates someone enough to go after them at church?  It's not like we worship Satan.  Those guys are weird.  It was a good service, though... it was my first exposure to a gospel choir.  AMAZING.

Girlfriend and I went to see Wall-E last night.  We meant to see it while we were working on the Robot Project, but it didn't really work out.  Those of you that have seen movies with me will not be at all surprised when I inform you that I laughed through the ENTIRE movie.  I highly recommend it.  Oh and p.s., I love me some Peter Gabriel.  Good choice, Pixar.
