not really sure

I’m at the health department today, I’m working on some lady’s computer and I’m waiting on something or another.   So, I start looking around the desk, the walls & what not.  See what people have.  On her desk is what looks like a food pyramid type sheet.  But, upon closer inspection, it’s an activity worksheet.  At the bottom of the pryamid, are the things you’re supposed to do a lot of.  Things like walk your dog, play in the snow, ride a bike etc.  And at the top of the pyramid, in the section where you’re not supposed to do hardly any of it, are play video games, use the internet, sit for more than 30 minutes etc.  I want to be that little worker, who hoisted up those huge rocks to the top, got to the top and enjoyed it so much he sat his ass down and watched the aliens wave goodbye.

I had to renew my drivers license last week.  Or maybe the week before.  Anyway, my birthday was the 5th so that week.  Now 30.  I keep all my important stuff in a box, and every once in a while if I get bored, or if I need something I’ll go through it all over again.  I seem to always find something new, even though it’s been too full to add anything for years.  This time though, I’m armed with a digital camera so I took a few pictures.  Here’s maybe the first picture of me in the newpaper.  This is me in 5th grade so maybe around 1987. You know it’s a small town when you get your picture in the paper because you ate some chinese food! 

Then here’s me again about 3 years later:

And finally me again another 3 years later securing my geekdom and single status for eternity:

Here’s some realllly old class pictures from 1982 and 1985.

 

Then I’m not sure how old I was here but pretty sure this is at the dentist:

There’s lots of gems in my little box.  Ok it’s not so little anymore.  But that box is about the only thing I’d care to save if something were to happen to my place.  Despite what insecure previous’s said about it being my computer.  There’s pieces of my life in there from about the entire span of me, birth certificate (which I’ll prob move to a more secure location), report cards, awards, papers I wrote, journals I kept, artwork, old left over prescription pills, high school and college diplomas’, my baby teeth are in there even.  A few things from previous’s, but mostly each gets her own separate little box.  I did find two little gems that gave me clues to some old friends I’ve been missing greatly, and I’ve already been able to locate one of them.  Now, why do you have to be all the way in Ohio? aha.  Anyway, point being it’s a ton of stuff I’d love to put up here and share.  I’ll do so when I can get around to it.  aha
