So the other day I'm helping my father-in-law move some furniture into a friend's house. After we get the piece into place, dude and his wife are telling us about the renovations they need to do. Thing is, dude's room is being redone. I guess he's ok with it, cuz he's just going with the flow of it. As I'm standing there listening I get...

So the other day I try the racetracks. Never did that before. I take the odds on favorite for show. How hard is it for the odds on horse to get into the top 3 spots? Evidently, pretty hard. The long odds horse wins. Fine, if this is how we're gonna play...so the next bet I make I specifically ask for the longest odds horse....

So I SHOULD be asleep, but damn that fukt up sleeping thing I got goin on...no biggie, worked 12 of the last 14 nights, got like 4 more to go. I feel a lot better than I should, so I figure I can run down a bit here on SG. Don't expect me to do complex math or beat a 3rd grader at chess, but...

SWSD - Shift Work Sleep Disorder. They finally named it. I saw on the news names for things like this - and RLS - come form advertising groups. I guess if you left it up to the Drs though, they'd slap their name on it. Anyways, I'm debating getting the Dr to prescribe Provigil for my SWSD. Funny thing is, they say you either end...

So it's March. Damn holiday pounds linger. I'm averse to poppin some pills to burn the weight off, I read how the chromium picolinate screws you up on a DNA level. Then again, visceral adipose tissue also carries a health risk. Now I'm nor tryin to die at 100 in my own feces, oblivious, but I ain't tryin to keel over at 40 either...Stress is...

So I think, yeah it is all about the little things and intangibles...Don't get me wrong, the big things can screw you royally, and tangibles like a big house could be nice...But I guess I'm just lucky that getting my haircut, shaving using a nice razor, and watching my little girl play at bathtime can get me back on track...Cool thing about bathtime, when you...

You know, if it weren't for the constant struggle of wondering what's coming next, and who's up to what, I'd probably be bored out of my mind...

I found out for the next 6 - whatever months, we'll be on an irregular shift. Hopefully less than that for me, a promotion and a transfer, probably more money in it, which is good, cuz I also...

OK, time to blog and I'm out...way earlier than usual, too. But I spend my 5 nights at work waiting for time off to work on my music, thinking I gotta get a demo ready, have a plan ready, pay more attention to who's doing what, then what happens? Days off get ruled by women and I spend my meager free time on Peggle or...

The last 6 days I pretty much neglected everything. 5 nights at work were rough, we got rid of a lame duck from our crew, picked up some one else getting bumped off another crew. No problem so far, this dude tries. And he listens. And he doesn't stand there and tell me what I'm doing wrong (here's a secret---I'm usually RIGHT) 2 minutes after...

DO THIS!!!
The seal hunt is to be gearing up here soon, I wish it'd stop. My understanding is most sealers do this in the fishing off season for what basically adds up to cigarette money. We're not talking natives feeding villages, we're talking (probably) some ill-educated, ill-mannered, roughneck assholes who laugh about roughing up literally defenseless animals for a couple cans of chew....
