*Sigh* Very long day so far. Well, I haven't been blogging as much as I've been wanting to (I gotta find some sort of motivation), but here I am.

 

Well, for starters, I've got about 7 new Random Facts for y'all to enjoy (they're statistics, but very interesting ones).

 

Well this morning, I drove my former next door neighbor Thom (he's 28, but he's like a big brother to me) to his doctor's appointment at about 7:45 AM (yuck). You see, yesterday he had a hand surgery, so he's not capable of driving right now. This was actually his 3rd hand surgery. It all started last year, he was making some pretty good money (about $1200 a week and as of right now, it's just him and his wife, so that's good money!) and he got in an accident where a dumpster (like the REAL big ones) smashed his left hand (thank God he's right handed). It wasn't a pretty sight. Not to get graphic, but a couple of his fingers were literally hanging off it it *shivers* . Luckily, his hand was saved, but ever since then he hasn't been able to get his old job back so please pray for him.

 

Total Distance from Home to Thom's house: 3 Miles

 

Total Distance from Thom's house to Hand Doctor's Office: 6 Miles

 

So, yeah, I drove him to his doctor's appointment. Then, we went to my Opthamologist to pick up my new glasses (I can see clearly now, the rain is gone :unsure: .

 

Distance from Hand Doctor's Office Office to Opthamologist: 6 Miles

 

At about 9:00 AM, we went to his lawyer's office so he could talk to her (no clue for what). I was there for about an hour. Luckily, I brought my Nintendo DS (so I didn't die of boredom) along with my Final Fantasy 1&2: Dawn of Souls game.

 

Total Distance from Opthamologist to Lawyer's Office: 8 Miles

 

After that, we went to get some food from Arby's. I can't remember the last time I ate that fast XD .

 

Total Distance from Lawyer's Office to Arby's: 2 Miles

 

From there, we went to his bank to drop off a check.

 

Total Distance from Arby's to Bank: >1 Mile

 

Then I went to pick up something that has to do with my little sister's medication for ADD which took less than a minute to get once I got there.

 

Distance from Bank to Doctor's Office my little sister: 4 Miles

 

Then I dropped Thom off at his house and when back Home.

 

Total remaining distance to home: 8 Miles

 

Total Distance: 38 Miles!

 

PHEW! So, I really don't wanna drive again for the rest of this day.

 

I'll make another entry relatively soon (within the next couple of days).

 

Random Fact Of The Day:

 

The average person spends 9 years watching TV throughout their whole life!

Thanks for the correction KIE, I must have been thinking of an "optimist" XD . 140 Miles per day?! *eye twitches*. You're brother's a brave man, that job has to be a good paying job for him to drive that far every day *cough*gas prices*cough*.
