Hump Day Blues

I am not totally bumbed it's Wednesday. My week has been pretty productive. I returned from Asheville with a new view of my life and how to continue to improve myself. As I look back on the week so far I am curious as to what I have accomplished. Let's review....

Friday, I went to my first Kentucky State Fair here is Louisville. The plan was to meet a couple coworkers of Josh's since we were all EXCITED about seeing Boys To Men in concert. Who knew they were still around? Well, not all of them are still around but I will get into that later. We met Josh's coworkers and right from the start I felt my tact leavemy body. It was there when I got out of the car and when I eyed the coworkers and their gang the tact left me like a bad habit. As Josh and I left the Valu Mart to the fair I just looked at him. I am sure the Valu Mart sounds like a step below Wal Mart but it is actually a step up. He turned to me and said, "I guessed but I had no idea. We only have to hang out with them long enough to be polite." How long is "long enough to be polite"? Where is Ms. Manners when you need her? Josh strategically park at a separate parking lot claiming it would be easier to get out of later tonight. We met at the big fountain. Now, I have never been to a fair that was primarily inside so I was a little taken back. I was also unimpressed by all the normal looking people. I didn't even see one mullet and I was promised to see several. I ate a yummy corndog and we headed to the beer tent. After discussion about why neither Josh nor myself feel the need to drink beer. Well Josh discussed as I rolled my eyes. At the tent, I told Josh I was done. I think I did very well it only took 10 minutes for me to become irritated. Josh politely ditched the coworkers and we walked the exhibits. We showed up at the Boys To Men concert as they entered the stage. It was great to see them and see all the teenagers that knew their music. Oh, Boys To Men went from four guys to three but they still sound great.

Saturday was less eventful. I had lunch with potential new friend and explained how my dates in Louisville are numbered. He was obviously slightly hurt and taken back by the news but was a trooper about the situation. He gave me a cool comic book about Budism which is also written in Chinese.

Sunday is a blur so I have nothing to say about that.

Monday I received a funny picture of myself from one of the guys at work which I will attach tomorrow because apparently I forgot to send it to my personal email. UGH! Oh, I forgot to say that I met a Chiropractor at the fair who I decided to check out. Monday night I had my first adjustment with Dr. Lowe. It was a very up close and personal visit. He put my arms and legs in weird positions and I felt it afterwards. I did get good news from him which is my tail bone is not broke or fractured. Hurray! I probable did something to my L5 which is why I have butt pain. The other bad news is my neck is almost straight, my spine is curvy from left to right and my pelvic is twisted. Crap! The good new is $1500 will almost fix all of that. NOT! I only agreed to one visit a week. It isn't that I don't feel that the $1500 package isn't worth it but it isn't worth debt. The better news is he never gave me a speech about how I need to do the recommended visits, blah-blah, and never made me feel guilty about not having the money. It was a nice change of pace from my last chiropractor.

Tueday was a bore! And Hump Day felt more like Humpy Dumpty Day. The day took forever to get done as it is still not done yet. I am going to try a new workout routine tonight since I am still only sleeping 4 to 5 hrs a night. I am going to try running and walking in the hope that I will be so exhausted I will sleep. Keep your fingers crossed! The next time I write I will tell you about job prospects.
