well...time for an update, I suppose. not that there is too much to update.

work is the exact opposite of last week. last week I was averaging 11 hour days of hot sweaty work. This week, it's SLOW. I'm averaging 5 hour days. I haven't actually even been going out with a crew, but managing to grab some work in the warehouse. it's easy work...mostly...

pb:
all i know is i'd probably kill myself on one. i've taken to explaining this to people by mentioning the fact i'd spectacularly wrecked and rendered un-ridable every bicycle i've had since the age of 6.

the stakes, obviously, are higher when there's an engine between your legs.

also, i'm PCSing to LA in a few months. something tells me it's not the ideal place to learn to ride (never been on one).

i go back and forth on it.

ok I've kinda been away a lot. been having lotsa stuff goins on.
Really into the new job now. Installing A/C[slash]furnace units is hard work but it keeps you busy in a satisfying way. keeps the hands and mind going to where...aside from the miserable heat you hardly notice your day has gone by when the job's done. And I'm averaging 11 hour work days....

Just finished my first real week at work. I only worked four days and I still managed 2 hours of overtime, if that gives you any idea how much I'm working. mostly in attics with temperatures in the 150 degree range. fun stuff. today I got to work on some multi-millionaire boy-man's house. He had FOUR air conditioners for his house. FOUR!
ok. it was...

All of those albums would be fabulous to have copies of. I'll send you an email with details right after this comment!
fraktalpaul:
being my first slip, I was unaware that there could be more than one. a crash, thankfully, isn't on the horizon. i'm still not convinced my slip is recoverable. here's hoping.

ok I'm back from my week in the field. not even quite a week .

I usually enjoy these training things, but this one really wore me out. It wasn't quite what we were told it was going to be. But it was allright.

We ended up leaving a day earlier than expected and went to a different base then we thought we would. one...

heh, good, then biggrin

Likewise, I like your photography and pictures of w. texas.. Makes me miss the Southwest. smile
_bossanova_:
Your journal just did a great job of cheering me up.biggrin I'm glad you managed to have fun, even while running around in that heat-it's too hot here to do anything outside. It's oppressive!

I wish you could go to Europe-your plans sounded like so much fun. What happened?

I'm hoping to come out there sometime before school starts (the end of August, I think). My brother and his girlfriend want to road trip it out there, and you know I can't resist a good road trip.love

ugh. I have to "wake up" in 2 and a half hours to go do this military thing I managed to obligate myself to for the week.

it shouldn't be a difficult week, but it takes me away from the new job and doesnt pay as much. oh well.

so I'll be gone for most of this week.

see y'all later.

I've had a bike but don't have one now.

Around here no one actually goes and gets their endorsement, they just drive around on their learners because the test is a bitch and a half. And then they renew their learners every season-messed up isn't it.

I was shopping for a bike last year, and had one sold out from underneath me. I get the bug every summer but always seem to need the money for other stuff.

I still say go to Europe.

another update. more of the same. can't sleep at all.

I was looking for work I could deal with for a couple of weeks without any real results. then today...uh...yesterday I got calls for three different jobs. Two were basically..."yeah so we misplaced your application, but I'm looking at it now. When can you start?" both were hotels. one is offering a pretty good night...

I got your postcard two days ago, I think. It's awesome! But I don't have your address, you should remedy that, M'kay?

why caaaaan't I sleeeeeeeep!

there's probably a million reasons. I've not kept at all a normal sleep schedule/cycle since I've been off active military duty. I stay up all hours sleeping a few hours here and there. I drink coffee every minute I'm awake. And I never want to rest. I enjoy sleep and luxuriating in bed being lazy but I also want to spend...

good day today.

they finally sent the computer tech over to look at my computer and see what was wrong with it. I had bought it over two months ago and hadn't been able to use it more than a couple days before it stopped working. they'd been sending me all kinds of parts for me to replace myself and I finally told them that,...

la la la la dee da la.

I feel like updating but now I'm drawing a blank. I haven't really gotten too much accomplished the last couple days. I feel like I'm still on vacation and I need toget over that and quick. THIS is actually the hardest part of doing the whole military thing. Since I've been in the Reserves I did a year...

Dang, I'm coming over to your house for dinner and a movie.

Sometimes when things get so rough you just gotta start laughing even with the tears rolling down your face.

guess it's been a little while so I can update this thing. Not a whole lot going at the moment. Just a small number of good things. I've been doing a little job hunting. I'm not stressing over it too much. There's a lot of work in town right now and I'm fairly guaranteed a couple jobs if nothing else works out. Mostly I've been...
