Damn
What the hell, Cub Foods went back to selling 8 hot dog buns in a package but hot dogs still come in packages of 10. This is a good reason to be man the rest of the day.

Week Review
Hard not to laugh. A couple of weeks ago Coca Cola sold distribution rights of Rockstar (an energy drink) to Pepsi. Our warehouse was told to sell all remaining Rockstar to stores and to fill them up. This last Monday was the first day that Pepsi took over distribution and I was told to give all Rockstar back stock to Pepsi. I start very early in the mourning so the Pepsi merchandiser never saw me put 10 plus cases on his pallets of back stock at my first store. At my second store the Pepsi guy was in the back room.
"Where do you want this Rockstar" I asked him.
"What I can't get that till Wednesday" he replied.
"But I have back stock of it and it's not ours any more so you get it"
"What, I don't have room for that....Goddamn it......fine put it there" he said pointing at a cart that had his 20oz. bottles in it.
That was not the whole conversation due to language. So I gave him 10 to 15 cases of Rockstar. At my third store I was stopped by the Pepsi merchandiser and his boss of all people. I know these guys and when the conversation started I knew exactly what they were going to say and it was hard not to laugh at them. We had 20 plus cases of Rockstar (store goes through 3 cases a week maybe) for them. Let's just say they were not happy with me but it was not my fault I didn't order that stuff. This was business and I know that they would have done the same to us if the roles had been reversed.
On a normal week the Pepsi dude at my third store bugs me, saying smart remarks and just getting on my nerves. He talks like he is better then me, but this week he didn't say more the two words to me. It felt good in a weird way.
Everything else was good, I guess, this week. Got ahead in homework so I was able to play video games more then usual. Don't think it will happen this week because on top on normal homework I have to hand in a summary for my finial projects in two of my classes. Had a hard time falling asleep all week, would lay down and toss and turn for what would seem like hours then my alarm would go off and I would wake up. When did I fall asleep? How much sleep did I get?
That's life I guess

The Rain
The one and only thing I miss about last place I lived is the metal roof that it had. Even a sprinkle would sound like a down pour from inside. It was pretty soothing, just lying in bed listening to the rain. The place I live now has a real roof (one with shingles) and I can only hear the down pours now. :(

Easter
Well I rushed home from Easter in Albert Lea because I thought I had two weekly quiz's. I jumped online a minute ago and found out that there are no quizs the first week of school. What to do now, already missed most of Fox's Sunday night line up.
I realized that I hate doing homework, I had so much fun on my two weeks off of school and now I have to spend my free time doing homework again.
I didn't think I would get to this post this week so I didn't think of stuff to write about. So, lets see what to write about. I have chores to do next week, my yard is a mess and I have to get the lawn mower out and started. It also needs the blade sharpened, wonder how much that will cost. Have to crush cans and move my stairs back because I think my trailer moved back and the screen door shouldn't hit the stairs. I should change the oil in my car, could have done that in Albert Lea today but oh well. What else, homework as always and two Netflixs movies I got last week still need to be watched.
Well, um Happy Easter I guess.
I will try to think of something to write about next week.

Asleep for two weeks
For anyone following my blog you would have seen that I haven't posted in a while. Well, I have been out of school and I guess not a lot happens to my when I am not in school. Well let my think, I did clean (a little) my house. I started my break by starting a game I borrowed from a friend, then I got caught up in anime watching. Watched Ghost In a Shell (both seasons) and other anime for four days in a row. It felt good and I almost wish I could watch more anime but I need to finish school. Any way after anime I started playing that game again and finished it by the middle of the last week of break. I started the game over to get a few more achievements but I didn't and don't know if I will have time now to do that. For you see I started school today, I have two online classes and I am already not motivated to do the homework for them. But what ever I will try to get back on track and have a post on Sunday but who knows because it is Easter that day. Bye, bye for now.
