penguileon (with pictures!)

roads


once again, very late post, although i DID take the picture on time for photo theme thursday. the theme was "roads" so i took a picture of the street i grew up on and the view i have lived with my entire life. the same street and view i will be leaving in less than a month. it's crazy that now i'm counting down by weeks instead of months. i remember when i was counting the years until i turned 18 and went to college. i am trying to make the most of these last few weeks while trying to finish up getting everything ready so forgive me if my posts are short or even non-existent.
the other day at work, i was helping cody compound and we started talking about random things (like we always do). our topic was global warming. i think global warming is a terrible thing and we need to stop polluting our planet but the scientist in me is kind of excited to see what evolutionary changes the climate will bring about. penguins, for example, will either need to evolve and adapt or die out. i think they'll have to learn to fly. cody thinks they'll have to be better at camouflage to make it in a world with more predators. and so, the penguileon was born.

penguileon: [peng-gwil-lee-uh n] noun
1. a hybrid bird species that displays a combination of characteristics from both the penguin and chameleon families. 
2. a unit of measure that is more than "a bucket load" but less than "a crap ton": He spent a penguileon on that bling.

I miss you and the pharmacy folks! I'm sure that they will greatly miss you when you leave.

And in regards to Rite Aid - can I request a compare and contrast post?

assuming i get the internship position, sure! although i'll probably have to be delicate about it. you know how it is with employers stalking prospective employees on the interwebs.
