After a long road trip you would expect I might get a quick second to rest but then my life just might be too good. I hop on my flight, watch the last half of X-Men: The first class and land in Vancouver. I get my good buddy and long time travel companion Fares El Sabbagh (owner of Vancouver General Contractors) to pick me up and along side him is Kayla Killer Quinn. Kayla is known as the killer for eating babies and ripping the legs off of frogs. 2 weeks of grinding and I am finally seeing some results. I posted yesterday that my ponch was getting smaller and it was confirmed by Fares' welcoming comment of "Is Jeffy B getting skinny?!" That made my day.
Now as I mentioned and having no time for a break, I know that I have 12,500 brochures getting delivered to my house today at 9:00am. That's 125 boxes at 12 lbs per box. Knowing this great task I have ahead of me, wake up at 8:30am, put my jogging shoes on and jog to the office. At the office I pick up a hand truck that I think will help me with the delivery and rush home for 9:00am now jogging with the dolly as if i was a post-pregnancy wife jogging with her stroller.
I arrive at home just in time to find out that 125 boxes don't await me, 125 shrink wrapped bundles await me. This makes it impossible for me to load them on the dolly. Needing a solution fast, I grab reusable green grocery and proceed to load 3 bundles in 4 bags so I can transport 12 bundles at a time. Also, if I haven't mentioned I live on the 16th floor of a condo building thus making this quite the task. 3 hours, 13 elevator commutes and 12,500 brochures later, one wall of my condo is now decorated with brochures. I am still going to squeeze in another quick workout before the day is done but a hell of a start to a day.
