  1. Ohh and with the World Tour jeans being around there was a bit of a family reunion of sorts:

    And like with most family reunions there was some awkwardness, folks found it odd I was standing out in my backyard with no pants on :D.

  2. I accepted the new job, but still have about 10 days left working at EPS before I'm completely done. Here's just a brief look into what I do while working for the school as a dishwasher.

    show up nice and early (not, 9:30 am)

    I get in, grab a cup of coffee toss in the 'ol headphones and get to it!

    The breakfast dishes are waiting for me : Spoons, juice glasses, bowls, and 90% of the faculty's coffee cups also. I wash everything,EVERYTHING. During sports I wash all of the water bottles, I've even had faculty bring me their own personal tupperware to wash. :angry:

    The jeans getting their dishroom on!

    works almost exactly like the dishwasher you might have in your house, only much faster! Put the dishes in, and Ka Pow a minute and a half later sparkling clean dishes! I typically do between 25 and 35 loads in the average day.

    Silverware. It has to go through twice, and I have to sort it as well. It's my least favorite.

    actually, i take it back. I hate these stupid salad plates. We have a salad bar for the middle and high school kids, so basically these just become a giant column stuck together with ranch and any other condiments available that particular day. Once the dishes are done I have to clean up.

    the work area is gross.

    but with a little soap, comet cleanser, and elbow grease

    it's shiny and new looking. After this I take out any trash, sweep, and wipe up. It would be an ideal job if I retired and just wanted to get out of the house for a a few hours. I punched in a 9:25, and was done by 2:15 (not even 5 hours)

    The Roy's and I woke up early in the AM to be BACK at my church for a board meeting.

    When you live in 'El Sticks' (elwood,NE) you do a lot of driving. 52 miles to Kearney :( but there is some beautiful country in the Platte Valley area:

    376697_10150362132456835_508016834_8757969_558842170_n.jpg

    Yeah, typical BORED meeting fare:

    312708_10150362133546835_508016834_8757990_844654249_n.jpg

    After the meeting we had a work bee. Cleaned out 6 closets, the basement, and under the baptistry. 90% of the stuff went to the city dump, but I managed to find some gems I brought home: (note the two boxes of Archie comics... the randoms stuff you find in churches.

    On sundays I've been helping a guy from Church clean up around his house and his property. So the Roy's got to do some scrapping in addition to the church junkin' :

    384768_10150362146616835_508016834_8758125_448475571_n.jpg

    My friend is 82. 82, he's the coolest MF on the planet. I will try to get more pictures next weekend if I go help him again. I was able to snap this one, but it's always awkward shooting pics with a phone while your working. Like I said though, coolest guy. At 82 he's every bit as quick and strong as me. He said something that stuck with me " Too many people get old and rust out instead of wearing out." Anyhow, made a little money too :D

    382052_10150362136121835_508016834_8758050_1075611960_n.jpg

    So i hit up the Goodwill to find this AWESOME point blanket. I'd been wanting a Hudson bay point blanket for quite sometime, was able to find this great deal!

  5. it is futile to follow riff, but here goes nothin' .... x-post from the roy world tour thread.

    I awoke and ran to the post office before church. Our local post office is small, and only open for an hour on Saturdays. If I didn't pick them up I wouldn't have gotten the glorious jeans until Monday afternoon.

    297480_10150360301651835_508016834_8748109_1775979037_n.jpg

    so had the jeans tucked safely away to change into after church this morning.

    My wife and I lead out in a group for our kids after church a couple times a month. It's a ton of fun. Changed into the ROY's and we did some crazy fun crafts and activities.

    A fit somewhere near Odessa,NE. Lauren and I drove home from Kearney to Elwood.

    Kearney,NE is dead center between Boston,MA and San Fransisco,CA. I don't know about Beatle's leg of the trip, but this might be farthest the jeans have been from the Ocean?
