Weekend Hash: Round 3 - First Impressions
I woke up this morning feeling like I had been in some kind of vehicle accident. Everything muscle in my back and thighs ached and there was a deep tendonitus-like hurt in my triceps. I woke up early to take my developmental pysh exam this morning and even though I got 7.5 hours of sleep, my body definately needed a few extra from missing so much this weekend. We ran the river 5 times this weekend (this is the most likely explanation for my body feeling beat up); without being cocky i feel like i am developing my guiding skills very quickly and am rapidly becoming comfortable in the raft or swimming in the white water. Yesterday just for fun, our trainer had us surf the most dangerous spot on the middle section of the river and at the end of the river, we attempted to flip our raft. The raft went up on it's back side and then fell over sideways, not quite flipping but dumping all of its occupants into a raging but safe rapid :-D
Saturday night I was called cocky once again, by a drunk girl. This insult was not delivered from someone irritated with me like two weekends ago. A girl who isn't a guide but hangs out with the High Country guides introduced herself and was asking me a few questions, to which i responded honestly. Then she said, oh hes cocky! he'll fit right in around here. It may be the booze, similar personalities in both girls, or the fact that i am really apathetic when it comes to impressing people, especially when i first meet them. I say a lot that i'm the kind of person that is not really arrogant or cocky, but i definately straddle the line between confidence and arrogance without ever going too far. With people i first meet though, i think my apathy and confidence are misconstrued as being arrogance. Whatever... i don't really give a shit, it's just interesting. Now fastforward about 10 min, after us trainee people had to run and get firewood, the same girl came up to me saying that she had to nut check me, which amounts to her making sure i had a pair. I promptly backed away and said no. She tried to pressure me to let her, saying that i would get hell on the river if i didn't, but again, being confident and apathetic, i said hell no, and informed her that i don't let people i don't know touch my nuts. Once she realized i wasn't budging, she took her drunk ass over to another conversation for a few minutes, but ran over real fast and told me good job for standing up for myself... my initial thought was "bitch please! i don't need some drunk ass telling me that i did a good job not being a fucking man whore!" lol well she sneak-attacked me later on in the evening and managed to invade my groin area before i could react... then i grabbed her arm and pushed her away. She wasn't mad, she had accomplished her mission. Oh well.
We almost had a throw down Saturday night. This guy who was visiting with a friend there was sitting on a bench and someone tipped the bench over (a common occurence with this bench... it happens to everyone). Well dude-man on the bench didn't realize that it was just messing around and ran at the offendor with a foot long mag-light, the two collided right next to where i was sitting. Everyone jumped on the two of them and broke them up and things got straightened out with noone getting hurt. The guy realized that it wasn't personal and the two of them were hanging out and joking around 10 minutes later.
In a final bit of news, the girl who i pissed off 2 weeks ago doesn't seem to be holding a grudge. She was hanging out with us saturday night and before she left she said that it was good seeing me again. I asked her if she was upset about 2 weeks ago and i apologized explaning that i was drunk and such and she said that it was all cool. we had seen each other earlier on the river that day and she waved in our direction, but i thought she was waving at our trainer. After i apologized about 2 weeks ago she said that she had waved at me on the river. Hmm, maybe someone does want my body hahaha! jk.
What a weekend. now im off to study for finals.
