ohh lord my ass hurts!!

ever wonder what i do all summer? sometimes i do to, mainly i wander around canola, wheat or barley fields, grazing fields or check on pipeline construction and weed infestations. most interesting is the pipeline construction, most relaxing is checking on weed infestations. canola fields are a real bitch to walk through but many perks: being out in the sun (i get to chose when the weather is not acceptable and go back to the office), wildlife - gofers, deers and even a moose once!, not having to deal with people and setting my own schedule. i may complain that my job is boring, but honestly i love it!
this girl took me for a tour around her 1/2 sections. sometimes it real nice to have the company :)

seems as though i've been obsessed with 30 for a while now, found this lonely blog entry on angelfire that i started on Wednesday, October 15 2003...

I think I believe I'm still only 20...hmmm
so i'm not too sure that much has actually happened to me in the last 9 or so years. yes i'm living in a different location - someplace between where i was born and where i spent most of my life - do you think that has any kind of importance in my life? sitting in a limbo of where i came from where i went, and where i'm going next? am listening to some cowboy junkies from the natural born killers sound track (which, coincidentally, i watched 9 yrs ago with my best bud - russ) where is he now? there are so many influential people that have come and gone from my life. now i know this isn't just some kind of anomaly that has only happened to me. there are many more of you sitting out there thinking the same - where did my 20's go? and what the hell does being 30 mean!!! i've seen my friends turn 30, and nothing seems too strange with that transition from an outsiders view, but now i'm starting to realize the internal struggle that comes along with the dreaded 3-0. i think i'm giving myself more wrinkles just sitting here typing this...but i digress, i started off, or was going to anyways, by just talking about my fav list of music - i never thought i was much of a romantic till i took a look at this fav list: lovers in a dangerous time, cry ophelia, i try, 3am... and the list goes one (by the way if you don't agree with my choice of music - i don't care! there are more choice words i would use but don't feel in the mood right now). with a short distraction of email with class details for tom i have completely lost track of where this blog was suppose to be bringing me, so alas i will retire to bed and continue another day with some more incoherent blatherings from the mind of one quickly approaching 30
