Short week in the Land of Myron, whose star is none other than MYRON!

Short week in the Land of Myron, whose star is none other than MYRON!

My week,

Monday: I didn't mention this before but I managed to hurt my arm a bit while snowboarding saturday, anyway while hanging on by one arm I hurt my arm again climbing... ugh! And it didn't help when Monica challenged me to a pretty much all arm rock climb which I failed, over and over and over again; only my male ego(and foolishness) kept me trying over and over again and failing.... Failure comes hard to me I guess, but I sure learned about it today!!!

The Ant Bully, I really liked it!
The Covenant, what a great movie!
(watched both of them Monday night)

Tuesday I found out a little late about making food for a potluck. Jay and I were assigned potato's/yam's, so I went to the store tried to find ready made Yams and Mashed potatoes but I couldn't find any... I did however find this 'Stove Top' Instant Potatoes, and Can'o'Yams. So I through it all into the pan, but the pan overflowed all over the top of the stove, so I figured I should probably not pour anymore into the pan, and I split the recipe into two pans. Meanwhile I'm taking individual can'o'yams and microwaving them for 4 minutes each and putting them into a pot. In order to save time I put the stove on high.... guess what; putting the stove on high didn't speed up the process of cooking the mash potatoes.. it did however speed up the process of attaching the mashed potatoes to the bottom of the can with this burnt smell. Also the Can'O'Yams decided to Yam up the microwave, so I have to clean that out. The potluck worked out pretty well and Debbie gave me a pie too! WOW! How cool is that, I LOVE pumkin pie! Worked legs out at the gym.

Wednesday, short workout, only did 4 miles... and I felt off that day.

Thursday, well I WAS going to go to the gym, but my schedule got tweaked a little bit, and I decided not to go to the gym today
went over to the Rock Dump and I climbed with Torsten. role call: Monica, Sulie, Chris, Becky, Torsten, Me!, Adam.
I found out I lost my credit card at the Rock Dump, AND I got a call that I lost my credit card at A&P, (I have two alaska airlines credit cards.. I'm doing the whole, let's have 2 credit cards that way I get bonus miles TWICE!... and losing both of them, that way I can have one lost all the time and still manage to earn miles) I can be pretty scattered brains sometimes (I lost my cell phone but found it, and I lost Travis's Chaulk, and Torsten found it at the Rock Dump)

Friday, went over to the Hanger with Sarah, Jay, Nick and Jake. The state let people off early!

Saturday, Went snowboarding w/ Torsten all day, then Torsten wanted to go look at Petroglyphs, so we spent 2 hours trudging throught he snow in the dark looking for them. And we found two petroglyphs! Wow!

the blurb week in 4 lines (plus a few!) in MyronLand.

Saturday, December 16, 2006

the blurb week in 4 lines (plus a few!) in MyronLand.

saturday:
I was heading out the door to go snowboarding at eaglecrest when Monica gave me a call and asked if I wanted to go climbing w/ her, so I changed my schedule and went climbing with her, I had a good time.

sunday:
weather wasn't the greatest, when to a bible study and ate w/ my Mom and several other people at the hangar.

monday:
I was over at andvsa afterwork evidently I was invited to go to a party monday night w/ the people at the andvsa office. There was a gift exchange and andrea quickly put together a gift for me (some candy and stuff) So I never did get to the gym that day.

tuesday:
Busy day at work, lots of meetings, and my Boss was in, whole day was busy, Monica and Travis/Torsten both called to see if I wanted to go to the Rock Dump but I was really busy with everything and I couldn't make it. Ended up working out at the gym w/ Tom and got a really good workout in, talked to Sulie and made plans for friday.

wednesday:
amanda called, found out about plans on friday and wasn't going to let me get away without letting her come a swell. Travis invited me to a murder-mystery and friday and wanted to go to the rockdump as well. Monica called wanted to go to the rockdump. Went to the gym, I ran 4 miles and walked a 1/2 a mile. Went with my Mom to Baranof and ate with her there.

thursday:
another busy busy day, my boss was in again and I had meetings and was training. Got to the Gym, Tom had plans at 6:00pm and so he left early.. I did legs and since I had plans on friday he said he'd do legs on friday and we would be sync'd up again next tuesday to workout together.

friday:
Travis took a picture of me after work so I could update my profile pic, you can see it! Amanda chickened out on going climbing; but I went with Sulie, Monica, and Travis (although Travis left early). I had a good time, but even more important Sulie and Monica had a good time! I spend most of my time just hanging futily grabbing.. several times both Sulie and Monica saved my life by holding onto the climbing rope! Thank you!

saturday (today):
Went snowboarding with Eve and Brenda, I had a good time and my snowboots didn't hurt too bad! I got this 5-day pass, for $59, (~ 62 dollar w/ tax), that's $12.40 a day for snowboarding isn't that great!!! Brenda and Eve tore up the mountain (as first time snowboarders/skiing can do!). Then I went over to Annie's Birthday Party. Brought a White Elephant Gift (for the less-sophisticated people out there such as me it's a gift, but it's NOT a white elephant!). It was the greatest birthday party I've this month! I was w/ Annie/Varden/Sulie/Amanda/Jason. Then we went and watched a movie called Borat... I'll just keep my opinion a secret on this movie. official review by myron: different.

If you got this far... thanks for reading; that means I didn't put you to sleep! YEAH!

sulie

Wow, you sure had a busy week. Thanks for fitting me in! And your welcome for "saving your life," I didn't really think you wanted to fall on your butt. Although it would have made for some good laughs. And hey, let me know, I'd love to go again!

And Borat was. . . Borat.

Arch rival and new friends

Friday, December 08, 2006

Arch-Rival and new friends!

I had a shocking discovery recently, a "arch-rival" appears to be one of my
myspace friends "top" friends.

This is quite disturbing.

In order that no battle-plans leak to the arch-rival we'll be obfuscating data
so that it won't fall into enemy hands, it is possible the "arch-rival"
is not even consciously aware of the "arch-rivals" state, and precarious
situation.

Nevertheless I proactively changed my *blargh* (words obfuscated to prevent
leakage of data), in order that I would *blargh* *blargh* on the *blargh*
*blargh* as *blargh*.

But even though I did this it appears that my "arch-rival" has *blargh*
*blargh* during those *blarghs*. So... I'm going to go *blargh* to my regular
*blarghs* *blargh* *blargh*.

Hopefully the plan doesn't backfire.

I'm going snowboarding tommorrow by myself it appears... but it should still
be fun!

Other News: V for Vendetta was very very cool, I really liked that movie.

Welcome new friends:
since my last greeting the following friends have found me:
Lee B. (my old boss from DEC, welcome!)
Shawn, he was a friend in high school who found me and was friends with me
back then... Welcome Shawn!
Sulie, WOW how cool is that, I got invited to the exclusive Sulie club!

Now, I'm at 21 friends!! But I can only put 24 friends in my top "8"! (8?).
So it appears I only have room for 3 more friends :(. Also I mixed up my
order in no order, so the order of my friends doesn't matter... everyone is
EQUALLY (or in some case more equally :P) equal! It could be I'm using a
complicated algorithmn which is not linear to rank the importance of my
friends. This complicated algorithmn is SO unknown that I don't even know
what it is! But I'll let you know a secret, the complicated secret algorithm
starts out with YOU being the most important friend I have. So anyone else is
"unimportant" :).

disclaimer: No ill will or bodily harm is desired towards the "arch-rival", and it is very
possible this "arch-rival" is not even evil.

Before you try to figure out what I was trying to say with ".r{}*"

it's suppose to be "/ *" but when you allow HTML code into an application without properly translating it you get mixed results.

Should have said:
/ *
* Glad to be considered a friend!
* /

Hopefully this will come out correctly ...

I wonder if you escape it.. here goes: ...r{}*...r{}* */

or..
../..* ../..*/

ahh, now I'm confusing myself!

I tried escaping it - did't seem to work - it's "slashstar" that does it...

sulie

Yes Myron, my club is *very* exclusive, so you should consider yourself lucky to be included! But seriously... I hope you were being sarcastic? :-) I only have 21 friends too, wow that doesn't seem like I'm very popular. But hey, I just started this myspace obsession.

Thanks for writing about me, I feel special now!

Just things.. for the past week or so...

Just things... for the past week or so...

Rice Milk: The beverage of the future
Being Sick: REALLY REALLY sucks! and is expensive; I say: from now on no one get sick that way you won't pass it along. I've wondered who is the first person to get sick w/ this stuff, what awful thing did they do to then get it and then feel the need to pass it along to everyone they meet?
Good Medicine: Zircam!
Good weather: 87 degree +

Phoenix was warm, I got sick when I got back, stayed home till Monday because I felt... very very poor. The trip back on the plane really sucked w/ my sinus plugged up and the altitude changes.

I didn't do laundry so on monday I dressed up really nice w/ a sport jacket and everything. I got such positive feedback that the next day I dressed up really nice w/ my nice sports coat and pants and shoes. It was kind of fun, everyone thought I was going for an interview or something because I never dress up like that.

I was feeling like crap on Monday, and I only ran 4 miles on the treadmill.

Tuesday I got a good workout, Tom was there but Summer was around so I ended up working alone anyway, but I still got in a good workout nevertheless :). (wednesday I didn't feel like going in),

But thursday I got a good workout in at the gym (which was empty!, maybe it was the bad weather!) on Thursday.

Travis (w/ Torsten and Debbie and Becky) took me Rock Climbing on Friday which was fun, Monica was there and she was alone and I ended up climbing
w/ her... she is really good (compared to me!).

This weekend I've played WarCraft 3 DOTA; and watched CBS innertube on the internet... anyway ttyl.

I'm having a real hard time posting a blog... maybe this time it'll go through...

Myron - I'm glad that you are feeling better. I agree - being sick really sucks.

It sounds like you are managing to keep busy with some pretty fun stuff. I wish I could say as much. I keep busy too, but it's not with fun stuff!

Myron

Oh contrare! ... in retro spec I guess I should have added that I spent saturday volunteering at andvsa...

Everybody's life is interesting; based on my view I think my life is less interesting then others, today I dressed up again; Worked out on legs at the Gym, and now Travis is coming over and against my better judgement I'm going to try and climb fake walls...

Thanks for the comment!

Hey, I agree with being sick sucking. I came home from vacation last night and I ended up with food poisoning. So I was awake all night puking in the toilet. (Is that too much information?) Ugh. . . . all I've eaten today is saltines, ginger ale, and a piece of toast. (The latter after I realized I really should eat something more substantial than saltines. At least it was whole grain toast!)

Going to post a picture of you in a sports coat? It would be cool to see an update on your profile pic!
