One of the neighborhood foxes that I saw by my back porch this afternoon. He's actually looking better than he was earlier in the season. He's still pretty skinny, but the first time I saw him I could count his ribs!
This was a pretty much perfect way to start my weekend
Well, it’s
time for another weekend! This week definitely felt shorter and easier than
last week was at the desk, and I’m super happy that my break is here again!
It’s about 8:30 in the evening right now; I just got back from having dinner in
the Whistle Pig. Since I worked until eleven last night and returned to work at
seven this morning, I was pretty tired by the time work ended at three. After
clocking out, I came back to the dorm, changed out of my uniform, ran and put
some laundry in at the employee village office, and came back to my room and
took a nap. I’d already been considering eating dinner at the Whistle Pig
tonight instead of the EDR, and since I didn’t wake up until a little after
six, the idea of jumping up and heading over to the EDR to be there in time for
dinner wasn’t very appealing. Therefore, at a little before seven I headed over
to the Whistle Pig and ordered a burger and onion rings, both of which were
delicious. That place is pretty cheap, thankfully, and definitely an upgrade
from the food at the EDR. I sat and ate the delicious food while talking to
Adam, who works at the activities desk, and a few people in housekeeping that I
know. At about 8:30 I headed back here to my dorm room. Cristina was off again
today, and I haven’t seen her at all. I don’t think her car is here right now;
she might have gone into town for a while, or something like that.
I haven’t
officially made any plans for this weekend, but I’m sure I’ll find some fun
stuff to do. I know that, conveniently enough, both Tanner and Jesse have the
next two days off as well, so I’ll probably go find them either later tonight
or tomorrow to see if they want to go hiking or something like that. I know
that Nate and Elliot are planning to do a pretty strenuous, nearly all day long
hike over in Paintbrush Canyon tomorrow, but I’m not sure if I’m up for that.
Elliot, who actually majored in film production in school, said he’d definitely
get pictures and video of the hike; Paintbrush Canyon is supposed to be an
absolutely beautiful area. Chatting with Brian at work today, he said that he
might do some hiking, or otherwise exploring the park, as well. I think I’ll
definitely find some productive and enjoyable way to spend this weekend. Even
if I’m tired from work, sleeping too late or sitting around my room for too
much time feels like a sin when living in a place like this.
