Today was a horrible, no good, very bad day. If you want to read some lighter/ more fun
stuff I’d skip about half way down this entry, otherwise brace yourselves! It started off with me having issues trying
to park a trailer with Cloud, which is similar to one of those large church
vans. I did well driving it, but parking
a trailer without a truck is a challenge on a whole ‘nother level. From there, I was riding passenger in a UTV
when a waterway came out of nowhere.
We’re both ok, but the UTV’s front right axel was damaged (hopefully
that’s all it was). I guess last week
there were 3 accidents involving these UTVs, so Wes came over and gave us a
talking to (for good reason). Right as
he was about to leave our other UTV crew flattened two of their tires because
there was a sharp piece of shrapnel hiding in the grass. To try and prevent further incidents Wes
suggested going no faster than 10mph before the UTV crew departed… but they
were only going 5 mph when they hit the debris.
Talk about bad luck.
Despite all of the setbacks, we did get some spraying in. My sprayer was missing a lever that
pressurized it, but I Macgyvered it with a stick… and then the nozzle would not
stop gushing chemical unless it was thrust heavenward. While patrolling one of the hills along
Interstate 55 I slipped on some of the hay covering it and sliced my hand open;
this was particularly hazardous as the wind was fluctuating and occasionally
blowing chemical in my direction since my sprayer was just having a grand ol’
time and refused to stop. Luckily that
was the end of our woes, but man, today was a series of unfortunate events.
On a completely different note, I had a dream last night. I remember trying to infiltrate a secret
order of wizards that either Harry, Ron, and Hermione where a part of or were
my accomplices—that part wasn’t as clear.
Another mystery was why I was Jennifer Lawrence. Polyjuice potion is the rational explanation…
but that doesn’t feel right. Anyways, I
recall doing some crazy acrobatics and jumping into a wishing well in front of
some important looking building. After
swimming down and looping up I was in a well-kept facility. Next thing I know I am blindfolded and being
lead along with the Harry Potter trio and some other potential initiates into a
room. We were placed in a circle and
told that under no circumstances were we allowed to open our eyes. I did anyways. In between us all was a translucent figure…
and then I woke up.
Oi, what a
day. I think I’m going to call it quits
before the universe decides to throw something else in our general
direction. Good night all—hopefully your
day went better than mine!
