Sunday Dale Earnhard Jr. Day

Sunday I woke up early and got a text from my dad. Mom was going out of town to Omaha and that set up for a day of 70 inch tv with subwolfer to watch the Royals game and the NBA finals. My dad hurt his ankle so I was thinking about dragging him to the K, but I figured probably just try to give everyone a day of rest including me and enjoy 70 inch HDTV with subwoolfer. We first went to Golden Corral and the food was good and it was clean. I had eggs and bacon. I actually had eggs and bacon twice on Sunday which is a good thing. The Royals won. They have great pitching backed by an fierce bullpen. The Royals defense has been very awesome as well as Escobar made a great play on Derek Jeter. After the game my dad and I watched Bridesmaids and then the NBA finals. It was good to get some time in with my dad, and enjoy an expensive tv. We also sprinkled in some Monster Trucks and some Formula 1 racing. Dale Earnhardt JR. won at Pocono. That was a great win. He often loses on the last lap so it was nice to see his luck change for once. So overall I give this grade an A+ as we did what we could to get my dad's ankle rested and we enjoyed expensive toys. When I got home I had a headache and I went to bed.

Sunday

I drove up to St. Joseph. My dad took me to Golden Corral and we are currently watching the Royals.

Friday and Saturday

This week has been pretty bad. I was sick all week and it made me short with people. It's all good though I think my throat is getting better thanks to not doing anything but work and sleeping. Andrea came over for a bit yesterday. We talked about various things. In life you really have to fight the urge to be a victim. Being a victim gives you a reward because you feel special that you have been wronged. It is a common thing that people do because their brain feeds them something that makes them feel good. You have to find ways to turn negatives into positives. I have had many guys steal girls I like, I have had many F's, many failures, many strikeouts, I made sure I acknowledged that it was all character building and tried my best to get back to work to earn money, back to the gym to work out, and back out in public to build social skills. It is hard work becoming an adult. I am not very good about it, but I at-least know the path to adulthood is to "Don't hate, congradulate" when you are done you can look back and know that your path wasn't easy. You always have to have a ying and yang. I know what a man/boy I was in my twenties so I can easily see progress in taking responsibility for my actions and habits. I just know the feeling of other people getting success and wanting to hate on their achievements, but you have to find a way for your actions to be loving towards them, even when your insides hurt. There is huge growth in those moments!

Sporting KC has an awesome preformance after a suspect red card put them down a man yesterday. Royals won the series against the Red Birds which was nice, but dropped one to the Yankees yesterday.

Tuesday

Tuesday wasn't good. My throat was killing me, in between praying for death I would take a bunch of medicine non of it really worked. I called my Doctor. She wasn't in. Ugh...my face and throat hurt so bad. I am hopeful I can get some antibotics tomorrow if not I may have to go to the ER or something because it is a bit more than I can bare. I went to work and talked on the phone all day as well. That wasn't good as my throat hurt. Royals won against St. Louis. Sporting KC lost one of their great midfielders to a bigger club. This team is hurting right now. No Zusi, Besler, Olum, Opara, Myers etc etc etc. Now Uri Rosell is out the door. Hopefully they can keep just getting ties to sneak into the playoffs.

Microwaving Throat spray

Wow my throat hurts. I am microwaving throat spray to try to get some relief. I don't think I have strep throat which is good. I think I would have a fever if I had strep. My first day of the month seemed to go well. I had two sales, one may not count because I said some things wrong, but overall I tried to sell to everyone even if they were grumpy. That is good job by me. My throat hurt all night and I stayed at work. The Royals won. Overall grade for a Monday was pretty good. I am just glad to have a job and make some money. Last year at this time I had a temp job and that wasn't a good gig at all.

Man/Boy

I can be a pretty big Man/Boy sometimes. Andrea helps point out the area's where I need to work on helping out with the house or with my parents boating. It is pretty annoying, but it's pretty much like having a personal trainer yelling at me to do a lift or walk another mile. It can be annoying, but it has it's point. I do need to keep working on helping others and learning how to work on houses so I can keep growing up. I am not going to beat myself up about it, just keep it in mind that there is a deeper level of satisfaction out there other than beating Grand Theft Auto 5. It is helping people.

Saturday and Sunday

Saturday Jason and I played two sets of Tennis. It was fun because I am better than I was. Jason has a nasty kick serve and other nasty shots, so that wasn't fun. We played for awhile then Adam, Matt, Monica, Sarah and Jason went up to Black Dog. I had some good laughs all night. Sunday my Dad and Mom went Boating on the river. It was fun. We had some awesome BBQ at Iron Horse BBQ in Atchison. Then we went home. I dropped Andrea off I went for a small walk but I was tired, Andrea came over and we watched HGTV. It was a decent episode.

Monday I went to the doctor and tried to see if the dosage was right. It seemed like it went well. I used to be so annoyed with people and had bad anxiety. Now at-least when I am upset it is tied to something. I also got my throat tested for Strep Throat because my throat has been killing me for the last three days. Today it is back to work and it is a new month. I need to work on my VOICE SCORES which just means that you get surveyed by customers and they can rate you well. I get rated well most of the time unless someone is just upset with the system. I want to work hard to do well because it really helps my overall happiness when I get a decent review.
