My two off days are just about up time to go back to jail tomorrow, at least I get to leave after 8 hours. I'm feeling rather undervalued there at the moment. I suppose that is the nature of the job market, feeling undervalued and mistreated and unnecessarily demeaned by superiors, alas. In other work news it seemed REALLY weird to me that a 16...

Season Two of Archer on Blu Ray in my hands a full four days before it's released? Kind of awesome...kind of totally awesome, good looking out Archer Facebook page.
So yeah, just now starting to fully feel like I've fully kicked a bastard cold that hung around for over two weeks, it wasn't so bad, only a day or so of feeling kinda crummy, but the chest cold aspect was a bitch to kick. I spent so long sounding like the love child of Mike Rowe and Barry White that I had a moment...

I took my nephew out for a belated 21st birthday celebration last night, I'd had a trying evening at work which concluded with me with my hand in a toilet, I managed to fish out four screws and a spring, I thought this was a crummy end to my night until I heard earlier in the evening the same inmate had a rather large nail...

It's December 17th and that means...it's my tattoo's birthday! Now I'm sure most of you folks out in SG land don't consider such things, but me, having but one measly little tattoo, it seems a cause for revelry. The ole fella looks just as handsome as the day he was embedded under my skin forever. A lot of thought went into my tattoo and it...

Working in corrections affords folks some very interesting scenarios in their lives for example this interaction between myself and a recently convicted murderer of some notoriety in St. Louis (He was convicted of 25 charges in addition to first degree murder). So I'm going around the different areas of the housing unit I work in doing my evening count and as I walk past his...

Is troubled, worried, put off and certainly feeling out of sorts right now.
Okay, this is a total "man post" which in and of itself sounds phallic and therefore supremely manly, but I was having a random, late night, coming down with a minor cold kinda thought and I realized, that if I'm not already there, I'm pretty close to having needed to shave on at least a semi-regular basis for half of my life. Weird...
I just got done watching a really good/cripplingly depressing movie on Netflix called "The High Cost of Living" with Zach Braff. Man...it's a different kind of movie, but it's good to see old Braff in a movie again, he's been kinda of low profile since Scrubs went off the air, aside from being the voice in those Pur water filter commercials. On a separate note,...

So in a new development at my job, it seems a number of inmates are under the impression that I am an undercover Federal agent posing as a Correctional Officer, this pleases me.
As I sit here...staring down thirty...I wonder where I went wrong, insofar as, the standard growing up timeline. Granted I was the youngest and the only boy, but I look at my peers what with wives and/or committed partners. My sister who is three years older than me was married for damn near five years when she was my age. Granted she's a much more...
