being home: the short version


if you want to read my lengthy post about coming home, grab a bag of chips and a diet coke and read my previous post. if you want the short version, you've come to the right place:

1. my family is as crazy and rambunctious as ever. and even larger!
2. the cousins who have graduated and have real jobs have no problem paying for drinks and concert tickets for the likes of the pseduo unemployed like me.
3. 30 degrees no longer feels deathly cold to me anymore.
4. it's easier to unpack 30 boxes than it is to pack them.
5. my parents have the most ghetto treadmill ever! you can't input specific inclines or speeds. you have to turn the dial from "fat burn mode" to "aerobic" to "performance" slowly increasing the speed. my training is about as imprecise (numberwise) as a person can get, but i don't think i'm going to resort to using a treadmill with a dial instead of digital output. the info on the display toggles between speed, distance, time, calories burned meaning you can't view all the information all at once!! hopefully my brother's girlfriend can get me a good deal at the 24 hour fitness. i've heard even arnold has worked out there before! how long before a real live honest to goodness arnold sighting?!?!
