Returning to The Empire
Hello Kiddies,
First our random fact of the day. 15 years ago tonight I had floor seats for the KISS Reunion show at Nassau Coliseum and the last ride of my beloved banana car. I'm watching KISSOlogy to get me in the right frame of mind. Actually I've been watching KISS Videos all week which explains my good mood.
Today was the first real test in the HSB and we performed admirably. I got up this morning, got ready and went to work, they guys were happy to see me. Whatever nervousness I had disappeared as soon as I got in the truck. Being able to work, concentrate and perform on the job like I'm supposed to be doing was just an amazing feeling. I felt capable, I was a little rusty and the route wasn't fantastic but none of it seemed to bother me. I had alot of thoughts today, not jumbled or racing, but things occurring to me to think about later, future plans and the like. The funny thing was the guy that drove for me was the same guy that drove me that last day on the job. He didn't seem to bother me today. Actually alot of things didn't bother me.
When I got back to the warehouse I spoke to one of the big bosses and thanked him for the support during my difficulty, and he simply replied that whatever I need will be taken care of as long as I was healthy. I guess if you work some place for 20+ years and consistently do a good job, people get to like having you around. I'm really starting to see the damage the Symbyax did to my health and psyche. You live and learn I guess. I'm not gonna make resolutions this year but I have goals and for the first time in a long time I feel like I can accomplish them.
The day was only marred by someone clipping my mirror off but it's getting fixed as we speak so whatever.
