Guess who's back, bitches.

Argh! I'm a doofus, and let my credit card get maxed out just prior to SG renewing my account...bad things my friends

That means for a short period of time, until my credit card situation gets fixed, I'll be grey. Don't go panicking yet...I'll be back as soon as the monies are straightened out.

ciao (for a while )

I forgot over these past few months how good it feels to honest, hard work. Work where you get home exhausted physically, but fulfilled mentally.

The new job that I'm at (and forsee to be a rather permanent position until schooling can get under full swing) is building wellheads. Everything from little casing bowls with a single valve for pipeline control to complex production wellheads...

So I went to the Foo Fighters concert tonight with Aoede and her best friend (who just turned 21).

And I'm so wired that I can't sleep...holyfuckingholyhell it was AWESOME! Never seen the Foo's live, and neither have I been to a true stadium-sized concert. I'm still in awe and I've fallen in love with their newer single, In Your Honor. I've got it on...

New profile pic! Whee! Aoede took it while we were out for her b-day sunday night. What a great accidental shot she snagged while we were fooling around with my cam.

So few passions in my life right now, but the ones that are there overwhelm me at times. First, my baby, second is food (but only barely), and third is sleep. I s'pose...

Holy crap I'm getting lazy. Like, manatee on a hot day lazy. 'Cept without the fatness.

Big upheavals in my occupational life over the past while. Complications with the construction job made reconsider how valid an option it was for me. So I'm gonna fall back on some old skills, and maybe learn some new ones. Going broke is no fun, as I'm sure you...

Heh. Yet one more person back from SGCalgary's weekend antics.

Highlights for me:

- Meeting rue_, heinleindourden and his invite on the street outside hifi and watching the RCMP haul down some substance-smoking runaway. classy.
- crazy dancing by Lotus at hifi...oh yeah, we mere members tried our hand at shaking our rumps...not as sexily, I'm afraid.
- being led 4 blocks by char1es...

Wow...I haven't waited this long to update since I was out in the oilfield. Sorry all

However, there's not much to say. Things keep going good with my lady. Can't complain, and re-writing "Yup, things are swell" might get a little old.

So time for some banality: Going to a football game tonight. Went out to the lake cabin with the university friends last week....

You know that time in your life when you used to tell people "when I grow up..."? Do you therefore have to fulfill that goal in order to be grown up? Cuz if you do, that's a crock of shit. Maturity can't be measured by accomplishments; it's all in one's attitude and how you behave in day to day life.

Where's this coming from? I've...
