I'm twenty-two. I'm aware that that hardly makes me old, but it feels like yesterday that I was eighteen. I finally understand the depth of the meaning of that god damn idiom. Feels like yesterday...Yeesh. I can remember the time when I shared a bunk bed with my younger sister, anxiously waiting for my fifteenth birthday. I can remember when I ( Read more... )

So...I`m back. I know I left you, Livejournal, and I know I have a tendency to neglect you, but I promise I`ll be better. I won`t hurt you again. I promise ( Read more... )

Aside from our usual bout of scaffolding, nothing much happened. Except for the disappearance of my drawing. Which I'd be aware of thanks to my sister working Monday.

Apparently, some time between Friday afternoon and Monday morning, my drawing had been erased. And it couldn't have happened Saturday or Sunday, as the Carpentry Shop is locked on ( Read more... )

Really. I'm tired. I don't wanna do this. But I want to keep track of all of the work we do. I do ( Read more... )

Or today he was. Usually he's pretty good at looking at a job and figuring out what he needs. Today it seemed like he just couldn't figure things out.

No work, apparently. Hence, this post will be amazingly short ( Read more... )

I walked so many...I'm so tired...But I didn't do them alone. It was just stairs on top of work and...No more. Please no more.

Right off the bat for the day, Dan said he had to talk to someone. And he told Helaine and I to take down the three small scaffolds around Power Boiler #2 if we had the time. He really just wanted the first one down, not ( Read more... )

Work was work. It was actually pretty slow. The two jobs our boss had for us, we did on Friday. So Dan and I -- Helaine got called off to do fire watch -- were 'on call'. Which was code for "sit around and do jack shit unless someone needs it". And they didn't. So I played a lot of pokemon and "helped" the other team, which was doing just as little ( Read more... )
