I delete numbers

Dear Everyone I've Ever Met My Whole Entire Life,

If we haven't talked in two months, I've deleted your number.

Unless you're really freaking weird and I want to make sure I know who you are when you text me randumb things here and there. I'm talking to you, Mr. Bologna.





SERIOUSLY DUDE. Balls Deep!?

If there's one thing I've learned over the last several years, it's that I am a weirdo/idiot magnet. If you ask me anything ever, you're probably demented. If you try to talk to me more than once a quarter, there's probably something up with you.

So in the wee hours of last night I got a nice message, which could possibly be creepy, but it seems like an awesome gesture right now because I haven't talked to anyone about it (so my creep-dar is totally off). You're either
A: Someone that I haven't talked to in a few months
B: Someone who got my number via the Internet.



Whoever you are, Mystery Person.....
If we exchanged numbers and I deleted you, I'm not sorry, because we haven't kept in contact; if we don't talk regularly, your number is not in my phone.
If you're just a randumb person who sent me a text, that's cool. Everyone should follow suit.

Listening to: Music that my mom will complain about because it sounds like noise (to her, but not me, but that's cool because ya know, we're all different and stuff)

 Clearly, by the last couple of sentences, everything is cool.

My garden is planted

All plants and seeds are officially in the ground.



Last year I had too much food, but this year my garden is even bigger.

- 8 different tomato plants, heirloom (I'm pretty sure one is going to die; it's withering while all others are thriving and one especially is growing like wildfire)
- 6 broccoli
- 2 kohlrabi
- 1 eggplant
- 1 chard
- 1 collard green
- 1 Brussels sprout
- 15ish corn (planted a week ago, all planted from seed and are emerging!!!)
- a long row of sunflowers, two varieties mixed
- a long row of quinoa, seeds planted today
- 2 pepper plants
- 1 blackberry bush
- 9 okra, seeds from Ryan's plants
- two garlic bulbs that sprouted so I buried them in the garden

I feel like I'm missing some things.

Then again, I feel like that all day every damn day.

I did some stuff over the weekend

I was lucky enough to find myself with an impromptu 3-day weekend. Thank you Tanner for covering my Sunday shift to make this mini-vacation possible!

Saturday I was invited to tag along on a one-day road trip to Burlington, IA to watch the Snake Alley bike race. These athletes are impressive! Normally I think sports are stupid. Since I've never played a sport in my life (no, seriously, I've never played a sport) I don't get it. I don't want to watch a bunch of people run around in a field kicking a ball back and forth while playing keep away, or watch people hit a ball back and forth over a net. I definitely don't want to watch people balance a ball on a stick just to hit it real far, fetch it from the bushes, hit it into a pit of sand, hit it a couple more times before they gently tap it into a hole. Whatever; leave me alone so I can take pictures of circles or glue broken pieces of junk to wood.

Geez, I rambled quite a bit. My point was, the Snake Alley race was cool and the whole day was awesome! I laughed for twelve hours straight; it was a beautiful drive and my friend and I were able to investigate lots of small towns along the way. It was a nice getaway!!



I can't get over how crazy the Snake Alley race was!



I was going to write about much fun I had on Sunday



and how productive I was on Monday, but then I started thinking about my ongoing heartbreak and trying to work through that. It's tough. We're trying to be friends, but my intentions are different from his since I'm hoping our friendship will blossom into more. He just wants friendship. We love each other differently and it sucks and it's hard. But it is what it is and we're trying to find a happy medium.

But then I fall in love all over again when he does stuff like peel an orange perfectly with his bare hands.



But I have good times off on my own, too. Just 23 hours ago I was walking around in the St. Louis City Garden, admiring this greatnes:

Moral of the Story:

Things are fun and good, but the broken heart is still there.

This week's show was a lot of fun! We had a secret guest again, but this time he kept me good and distracted while the show was going on. It was fun to sit around and get to know somebody new.

And we didn't get ONE request! Phones were busted and we had no idea about it. Ooopsie!

NOOO FUGGIN REQUESTS!!!! OMG BUSY PHONE LINES!!!!!

I blew it! I should have bought it.

Punishment and Reward.

I went on a mini road trip after work to investigate little towns around Springfield. I was lucky to spy this brick-a-brack, knick-knack or whatever they call it - porcelain statue - at a shop in Lincoln, but I regret that I did not buy it. This is a once-in-a-lifetime find and I merely took a few photos, laughed about it and skipped merrily on my way.

Just look at it.

Gramma is up to no good.

This view leaves a lot to the imagination.

- Pyle Driver?
- Swirly?
- Helping someone with a handstand or cartwheel?



Hmm. It appears that Grandma is massaging the taint of a small boy. I want to believe she's sewing up a tear....but no one has their clothes sewn, by an antique sewing machine, while wearing them. Especially if it's in the Frank-n-Bean region, accessed from the South.

No way.



Yep. She is definitely doing that.


I should've bought that humdinger. Dang!

What IN THEE world do you think it means!? I've never seen anything like it!
