I CAN Believe I Get Paid For This
Too little, in fact. Monday night I stayed until 3am scrubbing floors at Chipotle because the next morning people were coming to grade us. Apparently, our store hasn't passed the past two times, and we're never awarded the "Golden Burrito" or something stupid. Since then, I've woken up every morning with stiff and swollen fingers, sore arms, and banged up knees. Well anyway, we passed! I asked what would happen next. "The managers get a bonus." And all I got was a lousy t-shirt.
But instead of complaining about work, on to the real reason of this post. Let me tell you about another one of my frightening dreams. I blame this on the fact that I watched Jurassic Park over Thanksgiving Break. My church group was having a get-together in this small, one room building, called the "art building" (that will come in handy later). The idea was that we walked through a covered pathway to get to the building, and we were on a "tour" to see something. So we're walking, tra la la, and lo and behold, GIANT ZELDA: OCARINA OF TIME SPIDER DROPS DOWN IN FRONT OF ME. See, this is why I canNOT for the life of me play that game. I'm lucky that it didn't have that horrible rattlesnake sound in my dream. But since this is a DREAM and not real life, I continue on the tour! So we are told that these are giant carnivorous spiders that weigh up to 5 pounds of hairy, hairy flesh. We reach the building and in the room there's a buffet style lunch (sweet), and a lot of chairs and long tables. We're all enjoying our meal and talking about stuff... suddenly we hear the sound of 5 pounds of wet noodles fall behind us. Yea, above every chair, there was a spider rolled up into a ball, and the SCENT OF HUMANS triggered their decent. Where do I come up with this stuff? Either way, when the spiders unravel, they have really really long arms used for STABBING. I think there was only one door out of the building, but there were spiders there too, but everyone ran out of there. Except me, because I am a genius.
Well everyone left, and it's just me and Ashley, and now we're working on art projects. Aaah, art building, right? I have a photography final to turn in on Thursday (in real life), so I'm pretty sure I've just been freaking out about it. We think that all the spiders are gone because they chased everyone outside, but we happen to sit in the row of chairs that no one had sat in before. PLOP PLOP spiders behind us! Wait, hold up, apparently this place is still FULL OF LONG-ARMED HAIRY CRAWLY SPIDERS. Ashley and I run outside, and her trusty mini-van is waiting to take us back to Kentucky, where there are no spiders. ^_^ But what about the spiders? Tonto the Indian is outside next to one of the building's windows saying, "Nothing we can do. Spiders will take over the interstate. But wait!" He dips a piece of cloth in alcohol, sets it on fire, and throws it into the building. It burns to the ground. BURN SPIDERS BURN.
In other news, I really wish the zoo wasn't closed.
