I was wrong, my brothers transmission blew out a coolant line and so we can't go home. We could go but there is no way my jeep could tow the trailer back. Now I get to play mechanic all weekend. At least the new partner quit being a dick.

I'm not so sure I like my new posting, my crewmate is an asshat, I am doing work outside that really should be done inside the shop, with resultant nearly daily oil spills (cleanup is really a bitch) and the wind seems to blow continously untill just after I finish my outside work.

My first friday night off that I havent had to blow vacation on or call off sick and what am I doing? sitting on my ass in my freezing apartment playing warcraft.

I get to go to California for two weeks and make two months pay, and I don't even have to sell drugs or kill anybody! Goodbye credit card bills, forever.

I never knew that the online gaming world was so evolved. I havent had a computer of my own since the apple 2c i had when I was 10. I have learned that all of my high school buddies play the same game. In other news, when entrusted with a friends pschotic, hyper aggressive parrot, NEVER assume that it is behaving. It is not.

Well, chrismas was great, 6 degrees, sunny and we had barbequed steak and burgers for dinner. got world of warcraft and a neat little .22 revolver for loot and now I am spending even more time on the computer than ever, I swear I'm gonna go blind.

I finally have something worth updating about. Two days ago my local chairman comes up to me and tells me that my apprenticeship is over. this came as quite a supprise because it is like three or four months early by the calendar but I have apparently worked enough overtime in the last three years to knock a considerably amount of time off of the...
