So, I read this quote in an article that Jeff sent me and I almost started laughing at the accuracy of this:

If you manage a team of 10 people, it’s quite possible to do so with very few mistakes or bad behaviors. If you manage an organization of 1,000 people it is quite impossible. At a certain size, your company will do things that are so bad that you never imagined that you’d be associated with that kind of incompetence. Seeing people fritter away money, waste each other’s time, and do sloppy work can make you feel bad. If you are the CEO, it may well make you sick.

And to rub salt into the wound and make matters worse, it’s your fault.

Here’s a song to listen to while you read this entry.

Arrived at my parents’ summer house on Saturday evening.

Made some hot dogs and saw the sunset.

This is the view during the day time.

We went ziplining the next day at Hawksnest

The world’s tallest man being strapped in by the world’s shortest man.

Serious shit going on here.

The next day, we went on the Virginia Creeper trail. Yeah– it’s in Virginia. This is my version of trail mix.

I make this sport look good.

It would have been pretty serene if I wasn’t being swarmed with flies. Great.

The next day, we went kayaking on Watauga Lake. These legs went from pale to red in a matter of an hour or so.

Once you notice my dad in this photo, you’ll realize it doesn’t need a caption.

Epic final photo.

As someone who works in the apparel industry, it’s hard for me to value a t-shirt at more than, like, $7.00. That being said, I have no problem buying from Drop Dead. I also have no problem buying sweaters during the peak of summer.

Just because some cute girl likes the same bizarro crap you do, doesn’t make her your soul mate.
