Lately as I have been driving to and from school and/or work, I've been thinking about things and then thinking "Oh! I should blog about that!"
But really, all my ideas to blog about are either things that freak me out, gross me out, or annoy me and I don't want to be looked on as "that creepy angry blogger" so I think I'll just stick to the funny videos and pics.
Today's video is sponsored by the Emmys.
Next time be prepared for some hilarious twilight memes. :D

The Morning Zoo
So basically, if this was not on the radio every morning...I don't think I would go to school. Well, maybe that's a lie. I for sure wouldn't be as happy on my drive anyways.
They are HILARIOUS. I was going to say Jessica is my favorite...but then there is Danger Boy... and then I like Frankie too. They are all great.
Everyone in Utah should listen to them in the mornings and if you don't live here, listen online. Its fantastic.

PS-
This is awesome. I'm in here laughing by myself, trying not to seem crazy to any of the lifeguards.

Wait....whut??
I opened this to make a post about youtube videos I like, but right as I did Mary said this:
"Gonna kick this cold's butt in the face!!!!"
*Silence as we both looked at each other*
And then I laughed till my eyes starting tearring up.
So youtube videos....
I like this one primarily because of the teeth brushing part and a certain swim lesson coordinators connection to it.

Another Saturday at the Pool

This is Mary showing me something that Korbin has been doing lately or something. I don't really know, her face distracted me from what she was actually saying. Can you blame me? I think its my new favorite picture of all time.
School has started and while I could blog about that, I don't think I will right now. I'll just leave it with this picture for today. lqtm.

Things I've Decided are Wrong/Weird
#1: When guys touch their chest. It's not really even that simple. If a guy is in good shape, some flat palmed touching is ok as long as it doesn't last more than like two seconds. Not in good shape=no touching whatsoever. And finally, NO touching if you are going to "cup" the hand. EW. I've been noticing guys (both shirtless and....shirted? Is shirted a word?) doing this lately. Today there was a prolonged not inshape cupping going on for like 30 seconds and it seriously grossed me out.
Men, PLEASE never ever do this. Thank you.
#2:Pretzels with nacho cheese from you know where. I keep seeing repeat customers for these things and I cannot wrap my mind around why. I'm just baffled...
#3: There is something that is beeping about every five minutes in the office. I cannot figure out what it is cause there is at least five minutes between each beep and I forget to stare in the direction it is coming from and listen closely between beeps. Its a weird beep too...it sounds high pitched at the start of the beep, but then like dies in the middle and goes all low. Weird.
#4:Putting your hand in your armpit while folding your arms across the chest. Even worse (oh yes, there is worse), hand #1 in armpit and hand #2 eating an apple very slurpily. In fact any kinda of slurping in general. Yuck.
5#: TBA later on in the day as I find more things that are wrong/weird. There seem to be a lot at pools...
Oh, and by the way, today I will have something like 15 hours of work. Its not bad so far.

Long Days
Last Saturday I worked a LONG day, which is good because I need the hours, but it was still long. I came in and covered for a head guard at 6:45am and left the building at 11:15pm. I planned on making an hour by hour blog entry of the day, but it was forgotten somewhere along the way. However, here are some highlights:
6:45am- I came in and probably looked half dead. If you want confirmation of that, ask Jared. Luckily for me, there was one diet coke left in the fridge which I drank and then Jared got me a little cup of candy from somewhere. I didn't ask questions as it contained sugar, which was greatly needed. I forgot to say, I only had like 3 hours sleep tops the night before. Moving on...
The 8 o'clock hour- Bailey came in and Jared left me. I was freezing on deck, but discovered that I had a towel here and that our new drier was hooked up in the guard room. I'm so brilliant, I put my towel in there for a few minutes and then wrapped myself in it. It felt AMAZING. I proceeded to do this every hour or so for the rest of the day. One problem that plauged me about the towel/drier brillancy was the fact that every time I went to start the thing, I forgot you had to push and HOLD the start button down. Every time I went to start it and it wouldn't go, I'd panic and press the button a few more times.
11am- The guards and I started making a festive holiday chain.
12pm- Backstory to this hour: I had been debating in my head most of the day what I was going to get for lunch when Mary got here to head guard and when I felt tired or depressed about how many hours I had left, I would think "It's ok. Everything will be alright. Mary is going to be here at 1." and I felt better. BUT!, at about 12:30 I realized that 1 was when I normally came in and that Mary would actually not be here until 3pm. Those were the dark hours.
I sat by Hunter and worked on the chain some more and every few seconds I'd just turn to him and say "I'm so depressed...." and then after a while, he started telling me that "if I would focus on trying to make the chain faster, I wouldn't feel so depressed." Yeah....Thanks for the support towel boy....not.
3pm- Mary arrived and there was much rejoycing. I then ran to panda and got my delish lunch.
The rest of the day was kind of a blur that I don't remember much of. There was a party and Mary went insane at some point too.
Christmas eve was good too, except I had issues like an hour into the shift and was in mucho pain-o. I went home after, took advil, and proceeded to sleep for a couple hours.
Our breakfast was fun though. I enjoyed it and the people who were working.
Today I was going to come in at 9am, but again had issues and came in at like 11am. Still a good long shift, but I'm starting to feel these longer hours. There is only so much I can do here and so after all that's done...the time drags quite a bit.
Christmas was good. I got some really awesome and thoughtful gifts. I hope my family liked theirs too. 
This is the camera santa brought me. It is not fisher price. It is real and medium format. I'm excited to take some pictures with it.

Those are some pictures taken with this kind of camera. I really like the style.
Also, I got set of these products from my parents and I LOVE them:

Well that is all for now. This is random, but some people's attitudes just totally rub me the wrong way. I REALLY don't like it when it happens at work and I can't really avoid it. Blah. Two more hours. Two more hours.
