I have read something this morning that-- well, I'm not sure how I feel about it. I'm shaking my head as I type this, because I'm thinking the idea is just so pitiful. It's a good example of how lazy and yet impatient Americans are getting. Yes I might mean you, but you are American, are you not? Anyway, Papa John's Pizza now has a new ordering option: TEXT MESSAGING!!! Is it really that much of a hassle to call the place? You say "well I don't have the number," but if you've called before, then you have the number in your phone, and you can call information and get the number too. Besides, in order to text the order in, you have to go to their website. If you're at the website, you can get the phone number. I'm ranting, and no one really cares about it as much as I probably do, so I'll stop.
Anywho, how's your life going? It's funny when I ask questions like that, cuz I'm really interested to know even if I don't necessarily know you. Sometimes people tell me, and sometimes people completely ignore the question. We'll see what happens now that I've pointed it out...
So I got my first insult about my motorcycle day before yesterday. One of our service techs walked in the door and says, "Why'd you buy a training bike? Where are your training wheels?" Now, a regular person would be insulted by that. I am a words person (See Five Love Languages (it's a book)) and that really burns. You have insulted my bike, my riding skill, my financial decisions, and I now loathe your existence!! The person insulting me then proceeded to say that he used to have a 90cc bike in college. 90. Mine is 234cc's and you're insulting me because you had a 90cc. Whaaaat the heck. I'd say this person has no room to talk! Bottom line, don't insult people because then they talk bad about you on their blog. No no no, don't insult people because it's not nice, and they get defensive, and they shouldn't have to defend themselves to you unless you are their spouse or accountability partner.
So how's the week going? It's over half way finished! YAY! I'm excited about next week cuz I only have to work Monday. I get to catch up on sleep! Hooray!!! Well, need to get back to work, just thought I'd put something up cuz it's been a couple days. Later,

Yeah, I think America has always been lazy. Haha. I mean, moreso in the recent years especially. Okay, I take that back. It's just in the most recent, say, century or so that we've become so lazy and impatient.
That's the same reason I pop the life question. And the reason I do it is because sometimes you get an awesome answer or just an answer in general, and it's great. But yeah, my life is going well. I keep procrastinating on stuff... But I used today to catch up on some sleep, so that was nice. My weeks been pretty good.
Haha, wow. I guess that person had nothing better to do that day than to make fun of something so rediculous.
LOL. You crack me up.
Said technician mentioned that he made fun of your bike. I basically told him that I'm really proud of your decision and that it's the perfect bike for what you're using it for...of course, since you know said technician, you know that it didn't really phase him.
I think said technician needs a good...okay, moving on. I think your bike is great, and you DID make the right decision.
I'm not as upset about Papa John's, because I hate calling people. I would much prefer to text message...much less confrontational. But since you can't text Home Depot and ask where they are located, I get my practice calling people and using my words. lol...
I'm doing well today...more packing, as you well know. Ize didn't sleep well last night, but he's cheerful this morning!
I'm sick, Dane. Like, food-poisoned, fever, green-snot-filled sick. :( Yes, that is your cue for brotherly sympathy.
Maybe I'll text Jill downstairs and ask her to bring me a tea... ;)
Okay well, I agree with you that American are getting much lazier, but one of the main reasons is because it's been made so easy for us. Our parents, for example. Most kids don't do a THING now a days but sit on their but playing the playstation their parents got them, hence, when they grow up, THEYRE LAZY. What about our grandparents? They had to work so much thoughout their childhood, now look at them
