Being in the car with my parents for 8 plus hours, on two separate days in less than a week, could be asking for a bit too much. Actually I am not real sure what I was thinking not driving alone or with one of my siblings instead. The drive out was not bad at all, I hadn't just spent 5 days non-stop with them and have a little bit to talk about ( Read more... )

I have been at work for little over an hour this morning, I was not here yesterday and I am already out of things to do. Now I must look busy, oh how I hate that. The project I am on had planned to start our upgrade this past weekend, but it was postponed until January. Lovely, so I could be this slow for quite a while.

Work is still mostly slow and somewhat boring, after being gone for over a week. Ironic how it works, right before you get to take time off work you are super busy getting things finished up and passed on, right when you get back you are busy finishing up the things you passed on. How ever do employers get our morale up, when it just sucks most ( Read more... )

I have a tentative "under the knife" appointment planned out. Still need to improve on the mobility some and if all goes well early October I will be taking my summer vacation. Straight to the couch, with DVD after DVD ready to go. And not until I wake up will I know if I am on crutches for 2-3 days or 6 weeks, quite the difference. But I am ( Read more... )

Some people at work really make your day, like the guy that called yesterday to leave me a quick message and to say that I was in the running to win the Football Poll for this week. Then there are others that you just loathe being around. I can not even explain why I dislike this person so much, we sit 10 feet away from one another with no cube ( Read more... )

I found a great quote today, with my alma mater in the state it is and college football in the wings ( Read more... )

This knee is my life, damn it. I want to stop with it. But it keeps me from most anything I want to do, sex aside thankfully. I want to hike, and run and do cardio again, dammit!! I want to play softball instead of watch, in due time right, be patient, read lots of books and watch lots of movies. Spend some much needed time with the family and ( Read more... )
