DAIN-juh! ...in the Library.

I spent my 8 o'clock hour this Ante Meridian on a ladder removing 59 decorative snowflakes from the Willard Library's ceiling.  59.  I guess snowflake number 60 melted.  Or maybe the Iceman ate it FOR BREAKFAST.  Who knows where those unreliable flakes go when you leave 'em hangin'.  It's everybody's fault really.

The other 59 flakes that had nowhere to hide came down without much of a fight.  Meanwhile I was enjoying the gradual discovery of warning stickers on the ladder.  It was like finding clues in a Nancy Drew mystery every time I would notice a new one.  Although, looking back... it is a miracle that I survived as unprepared as I was when I first began clumsily ascending and descending the ladder... and balancing at the very top on one leg with a cake on my head.

Ta-da!

Here's some good advice the ladder eventually gave me:

YOU CAN!

I never found the sticker that warns me to read this sticker!

Personally, I think it would be a whole lot funnier if all of the "DO NOT"'s were replaced with "I DARE YOU TO"'s.... yessss. 

            

AND NOW.... WHAT YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR BUT DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE WAITING FOR IT BECAUSE I DIDN'T WARN YOU, BUT MAYBE YOU SAW IT IN A VISION YESTERDAY WHILE YOU WERE EATING YOUR TACO BELL AT MCDONALD'S AND THE PEOPLE WHO WORK THERE WERE ALL, LIKE, "HEY YOU CAN'T EAT THAT HERE"...  

it's

THE PULL-UP* ChhhhaaaALLENGE

(the part of the blog where i show off my extreme wimpiness)



"YEAH!"



I will now attempt to do as many pull-ups as I can.  Watch out Tony Horton... I am a beast.

Here goes nothing.......... //stretches for a ridiculous amount of time//
And the lucky number for today is....

3 pull-ups

All right, that was pretty bad.  But on my next random pull-up challenge maybe I will improve.  Or not.  We'll see next time on
THE PULL-UP* ChhhhaaaALLENGE

"YEAH!"

*no, not the potty-training pants.  yes, two of the pictures I used are a bit misleading

My favorite part of today was when Justin and I used the cord of a tower fan to fish an article of clothing out from behind our bed.  The fishing part wasn't very effective, so we eventually gave up and scooted the laundry out with the entire fan... but the fishing part was a total carnival game!!!  I wanted to win the stuffed unicorn.     

NOT-SO-SERIOUS CONFESSIONS:

They recently hired a new shelver at the library, and I kind of......never officially introduced myself.  And the expiration date on that introduction was..oh.. about a month ago.  HAHA.  Now every encounter I have with him is super quiet and awkward.  Awkward... like a TURTLE.

The other thing I accomplished at work today
