First shift in

So,
today is thursday and on tuesday night/ late afternoon i finished my first shift with second nature, it was a wild experience to say the least. I got matched up with a group that is comprised entirely of teenage girls, AS well as all female staff. that is to say that i was the only male in the group, even the dog that came along was female, which is fine with me on the account that she was a lap dog and kept me nice and warm.
Those eight days in the high desert of utah were some some of the most challangeing and tireing, while being the most rewarding days that i have had in a long time. I cant go into any details due to privacy laws but it was intense, and it was very very hard work but you know what? I liked it.
on another note relating to work, as i knew that i would be I am way out of shape for the summer, this happens every summer, so this is not much of a shock. But i am trying to make things work out a little better in my favor this time. Lucky for me i am spending a lot of my time in the field, this i am eating very well while in the field and doing a lot of work out there to stay in shape.
the problem is that this summer i have large hunks of time off after each intense session. so it will be easy negate all the good work that i will be doing towards my body. so far i suspect that I am off to a good start. While not in the field I have been trying to do happy body things, like swim laps for a half an hour, eat less each day or go for walks. what my plan for the next several days is, that i will head over to zion national park and hike around. I dont think that i have ever been there, and if i have it has been a long time, like second grade long time. I had planned to head over to horseshoe canyon and see the grand gallary in caynonlands national park but that is about a seven hour drive, which i am not that opposed to, its the money that it was entail, not even the gas but the stuff that i have to do for my car to keep it happy. the time has rolled around for my 7500 mile recomended mantianice, and i suspect that it is going to cost me several hundred dollars,
since i have pennies to my name and owe people money i hae decided to hold off on that for the moment. and thus not drive very far. It will be a good thing when i get paied thats for sure.
and on a complatly diffenert note...
the stupid bank has shut down my online banking syestem so i can look at anything !!!!!
ahhhhhh pain int he asss
off to zion
cheers

Drive carefully and find a way to get the car looked at. When is your first pay check due? Take lots of pictures in Zion, and you could probably find a YMCA in the area to join for the summer.
