My friends are going to be the death of me. A friend of mine is a little less than two weeks out of surgery and has managed to pick up a cold. She is worse than I am about seeing doctors so I did a “terrible” thing and called her mother to go check on her. They admitted her for observation so ever hour on the hour I am getting a text telling me exactly how much of an asshole I am.

I can live with that I just can’t live without her.

I got a call from her mother saying that she will be fine and thanked me for getting her involved.

First day since the psychotically unhinged manager quit, even though there's a horrible storm raging outside I'd call this one of the best days of my life.

Work is getting verry busy and it looks like a ton of overtime is coming. Perfect timing I'm Going on vacation in a month and some extra money will help.

I did a brake job on my neighbors car as a favor (if he's putting his kids in it I'm putting the best parts on that I can) he tried to pay me back with a case of beer, the problem is I don't drink anymore so I couldn't take it and I really didn't mind doing the job. Tonight he got it right he flagged me down and gave me 3 loaves of pumpkin bread and a big ass plate of rice crispy treats, its probably just as bad for me as the beer would have been but I've never heard of someone rice crispy calling an old girlfriend.

Always wear safety glasses. I'm glad that I was wearing mine yesterday, I was testing some new loads and i found one that's a bit too much and the scope came back and hit me in the face. If i hadn't been wearing safety glasses safety would probably have a nasty cut in my eyebrow and not just feel like i got punched in the face.

The people at Subway do not have a sense of humor. Looking at the cookie rack and asking the person behind the counter "how many legs a raisin have" will get you asked to leave.

I know I'm an asshole but that was just too tempting.


I never did get an answer.

This is the end of my first week being someone's boss. I'm not sure not who was more nervous me or them, my boss had me set up the project how I always wanted one to be set up so I did. Its not the most difficult project but I answered 90% of the questions before they where asked and that really seems to have been the key.

I really feel that I accomplished something.

Insomnia fucking sucks and people who call just as I've fallen asleep suck even more.

My hats off to real photographers, I stumbled across a really bad ass spider web out in the woods and this was the best picture that I could get.




If you look really hard you can sort of see a spider in its web.

This is my ten year anniversary of giving up tobacco, hell of a day to pick. I guess I was ready because I stopped dead and have never really had the urge since.

Hopefully in the spring of 2022 I will be celebrating 10 years of sobriety.

I've become kind of boring lately not hanging out down at the bar causing havoc but I feel a whole lot better now and I have a good bit more money handy which is always great.

I'm having one of those days where I am quite proud of myself.
