all night tonight I was saving room for pizza from my favorite place that has amazing thin crust buffalo chicken pizza.......
well, the place near me is apparently under construction (uh, as of like today?? I just got delivery a few days ago...) and their other locations are unable to deliver to me because I'm out of their zone... even though the "zone" I'm in is definitely their most inhabited and probably their most frequently busy business zone....
I'm just really annoyed that they won't increase their zones to cover where the place that's closed needs coverage - especially on st pattys and in an area that should really have some coverage...... gr..
Tricky situation. I have got in contact about a few different internships this summer. One of which has involved me talking via email with a manager for my department from a major Nascar team. I hadn't heard from him in awhile, sent a hail-mary email about a week ago. He got up with me today, said send him an updated resume and he would be in touch. I gave up on this possibility about 4 days ago. Been in contact with a fairly big real estate company that is about 40 mins from my college town about a paid internship in my department.
I have the realtor phone number, and think I could set up a meeting to discuss the position if I wanted to. I'm trying to give it time though to see if I hear back from the other position. Even though that would involve me living with my aunt, I think it would be worth it. I don't want to be left empty handed though.
I wouldn't commit to anything just yet if you want the NASCAR thing. And knowing what you're going to school for and a roundabout of what you want to do, definitely try to give them as much time as needed before you MUST commit to something.

I asked them if I could pay more to have them deliver here, and they told me that they had some sort of ridiculous fines if they went out of their zones.
I ordered from another place, but their pizza is definitely 1/3 as good. and I cannot go pick anything up. that would be highly irresponsible.

You know what's even worse? Getting delivery from a place for a while and then having them change and say "Oh we don't deliver there" even though I KNOW they have delivered there in the past. That's annoying. Enjoy your pizza

Be honest with the real estate company and tell them that you''d love to work for them, but you also have an outside chance with NASCAR and that's the type of position you just couldn't turn down.
I had a situation like this once, when I was 21 in the summer of 2002. I received an internship in the PA Office of Attorney General, and was set to move from my parents house to Harrisburg to work there for the summer. When I was studying for my last final, I got a call from the Buffalo Bills about an internship I had applied for six months prior. They told me I was in, and they'd follow up with details. When I inquired about pay, I was told that...well, it wasn't much ($125/week, after taxes was about $115). Decided to do the attorney general gig. About four weeks into the AG gig, I realized how boring the job was, had a panic attack, and called the Bills (who thankfully never knew I wasn't going to come...). Telling my boss at the AG was pretty nerve wracking but when I finally had the balls to do it, he said: "Josh, what the hell are you doing here? Get to Buffalo immediately, you'd be crazy to pass that up!"
So, I've kinda been in your situation before. Hold on to the possibility of NASCAR as long as you can, however faint the hope may be and if you fracture a relationship with a potential employer, well - there are a lot of other real estate companies, if they don't want a kid who is chasing a dream, probably they aren't for you anyway.
I enjoy synthetic oil. I get it changed when my light goes on (5,000 miles which usually lasts me 6 months) and I never have to check the oil in the interim.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

That's my game-plan. I'm just afraid I'm going to get an email or phone call from the realtor wanting to finalize something. I would be honest with him about my situation, but the bad part is paid internships are "few & far between" around here. Two universities within 15 miles of each other, but the closest major city is over two hours away. I like Roanoke, but it's still under 100K in population...it's not like the area is booming with opportunities. He could fill the position very quickly if he needed to. I have a good feeling though about hearing back from the Nascar team. We have been in contact with each other throughout the past few months....I feel like there has to be a reason for that.

That's awesome you interned with the Bills! I did an internship with a minor league baseball team two summers ago, I enjoyed it for the most part. What makes me really want this internship is it wouldn't involve me having to pay rent at another apartment. The team is located less than 15 mins from my aunt's house.
Just found out my uncle has pancreatic cancer. He has always been a huge dick to my father and really my entire side of the family. Their was legitimately a 15-20 year period where the two sides werent even in communication. We didn't start seeing eachother again until my cousin (his son) got married and invited my side of the family just out of courtesy. Ever since we see eachother on holidays and stuff. I get along with my cousins, but he has still always been insufferable. I say hello and that's about it. My dad won't even hang out at the same side of the table or have a conversation with him.
But that's still a horrible way to go out. I feel really bad for my cousins. And I sympathize with his pain. I'm not taking it harshly. I just see our entire relationship as a missed opportunity, but the blame for that goes entirely toward him. I suppose it is irrelevant now.

That sucks man. He's still family, if it's at all possible you could reach out to him and just let him know that you're thinking about him and offer to help somehow. I mean, he's not gone, so there is still time to at least let him know that he is family and loved and cared for. Thinking about your family and I hope he doesn't experience too much pain while he's going through recovery. <3
Now this seems really out of place and makes what I just said seem ingenuine (it's not!), but where do I go to brag about being right that Glass Animals would be on Thursday? runninglouisville, told you so!

I got a text tonight that my brother was in a car accident, his car was on fire and he was unconscious at the scene. He has some broken bones and we know the two people in the car he hit are alive but unsure of their condition. That is the second time he has been in an accident where the cop thought there were potential fatalities. I don't give a shit if he has to drop out of our Roo trip, I'm just happy my best friend is alive and he's around for his 4 month old son. What a scary and horrible night...
Maaan. I haven't been around much as of late and just catching up.
I'm so glad your brother is ok. I'll keep him and the others in my thoughts.
For all of you out there holding your breath, I sauteed spinach/onion/garlic/cilantro and made quessadillas with extra sharp cheddar and chipotles. I overstuffed corn tortillas, so they came out more like fresh hard tacos, so i topped em with some chunky salsa.
Going on vacation with the family in July and wondering if anyone would want to house sit. We're in Wilmington, NC, 10 mins from the beach. Bring in the mail, feed the cats and go to the beach. Anyone interested?
my friends/coworkers and I met up to have some mojitos tonight. I was told stories about what I did sunday (spoiler alert - not pretty. they reenacted how I fell off my chair.) we then all sat on tinder seeing how many matches in a row we could get and responded to every message: "If you were a hotdog, would you eat yourself?" <-- that's how you're supposed to tinder, I'm pretty sure.
I dropped a pepperoni on the floor and left it and walked away to eat my pizza. When I came back I was really confused as to why it was still there. Then I remembered I don't have a dog anymore and I got really sad. It's the little things.... I miss my Topher McLopherson
