yesterday for the first time i slept through (part of) my shift at la prima tazza. there were reasons why it happened, not good ones, but i wasn't sitting around and picking my nose. anyway, i didn't feel as bad as i thought i would. i wasn't
really letting anyone down (it was a barbacking shift and, in my opinion, unnecessary to be there before 9 on tuesdays anyway) so i didn't feel guilty. now i feel guilty, but only because at the time it felt sort of good to fuck up and not really care about it. is that bad?
And finally, I read today that Michael Phelps consumes 12000 calories a day. Yere are some comparable amounts:
- Twizlers - 750 single twizlers = 18.75lbs
- McDonalds Quarter Pounder with Cheese - 23 individual burgers = 10lbs
- Subways Cold Cut Combo "6 - 29 sandwiches = 14 feet for sandwich
- Pizza Hut Pan Pizza Pepperoni - 5 pizzas and 2 slices = Over 400 square inches of Pizza (9.4lbs)
- Doritos Cool Ranch - Five, 1 pound bags= 5.3 lbs and 600 grams of fat
i lost the list of things i wanted to do this summer when i deleted my blog. that's what i get for being semi-irrational. i know that i did go swimming in non-chlorinated waters, ate at different restaurants besides free state, participated in a morning show, rode my bike some. i still haven't done my 'one taco every day for one week' bit, but i'm planning on it for the first week of september. i didn't make a 'zine, i didn't participate in a 'field day olympics', i haven't been to any of the bars i wanted to visit. oh well. i'm going to make a list of things i want to accomplish before moving from lawrence and actually keep the list until i move.
LIST:
- Go to Kansas City to eat at Arthur Bryants, Phil's restaurant, Korma Sutra
- Go to KC to 18th and Vine district, Bodies exhibit, Nelson/Kemper
- Visit those goddamn bars
- Sell my desk and my bike
- Get rid of at least one box of crap before moving
- Run a 5k (September 13th)
- CONTRIBUTE TO A ZINE, JESUS H.
- Live music with Annie?
- Interview my grandparents via telephone
- Finish as much as I can of Six Feet Under
*That's it for now. I will edit later.
