Suprisingly few comments on that last post considering how many days it’s been…. 😉
Anyway.. ummm… 5 or 6 days of actual work left. Probably 5, I doubt I’ll go tomorrow… as I will be waking up in like 4 and a half hours for the attempt…. but I already feel kind of sick… it is probably just a mental thing… but uhhh.. yeah.
So for those of you who read this and do not go to Oasis… tonight was round 2 of the fear factor thing… no more eating things… for that I am glad.
However, tonight we got to stand in a bucket of ice for… I believe it was 12 and a half minutes. One guy dropped out. They were trying to get 2 of us out… but…. we remaining 4 are just that determined.
Just to let you know, standing in ice for 12 and a half minutes is pretty painful. At first it is only somewhat cold… Then it gets real cold, but tolerable… then… somewhere between 5 and 7 minutes… it starts to hurt real bad…. then around 9 i guess is when you start to go numb… but it still hurts. Anyway, at about that point I just closed my eyes and tried to zone everything out. But uhhh… the second I heard we could get out i got out of that thing…. and then it really hurt 😉
Anyway, I ran to the bathroom…. started running water over my hands (oh yeah, at some point we were forced to stick our hands in the ice too). When this was done, I decided it would be a good idea to climb up onto the counter and stick my feet in the sink…. I started with cold water…. and it felt like hot water…. ummm… i gradually made the water warmer… and eventually… the pain subsided… for the most part. It still kind of aches a little…. and it feels weird. But it was worth it, I guess, for the entertainment of others…. and the possibility of $200. But I doubt anyone will be the sole winner of this prize… Hopefully they’ll knock out at least one more person who isn’t me next week, so it can just be 3 ways, rather then 4 😉
Anyway, I think between that, lack of sleep, and the eating of Waffle House food… I have successfully made myself sick.
Plus I really don’t want to go to work tomorrow.
So if I wake up and even feel slightly bad…. no work for me.
Have a great day…. and keep those feet out of buckets of ice.
Well, I guess that experience brings clearer understanding to the expression, “Chill”. 😉
i knew you’d make it. i still think they should make you drink warm breast milk from a bottle.
lol eating waffle house food is questionable?? May i point you towards your post about all the disgusting things you ate last week?????
