I've been doing a field survey of some of the drinking water pump stations around town and wow. It's amazing how much of the infrastructure has been neglected and is only held together with duck tape, bubble gum, and prayers.
I am less and less patients supporting entities that serve little to no purpose other than making the news. What I've seen over the years...

Nothing like friends to put things into perspective. I'm single again and looking for some pity from my friends, my divorced friends. It's hard feel too bad when you get rid of a problem twice inside of six months, especially when your divorced friends make the point of I didn't loose my house and spend thousands of dollars on lawyer fees.
I'm going to the...

We have a project that requires 3D modeling and since I'm a little slow at work I've been practicing with the program, learning as much as I can before it gets rolling. I did a layout of an office space that we were going to move into. Using another program for the office furniture I was able to lay it out properly, when i did...

I took the day off for another reason but my plans got rained out so I went to see Ghost in the Shell. I'm a fan of the original so I wanted to see what they kept/disregarded in this version. As a whole I really liked this one, some of the changes I get, you have to cater to an American/Western audience to make money...

I spent yesterday helping a friend with his new barn. He fired the contractor for being 2 months behind and is going to finish it himself. Being up on a ladder tearing out the framing boards was an adventure. I wound up trading off being on a ladder for running the tamper. Deconstruction I can do construction not so much.
I've been working out so...

The girl and three of her friends are going to Vegas this weekend. Normally I wouldn't have an issue with this but her telling me today during lunch was a bit last minute. I trust her but this is pushing it.
I am one of those unfortunate few who seem to get all of the negative side effects from medication. My check-up with the doctor last week I asked about the change in my vision. I noticed it right after I started taking citalopram that my vision got a little fuzzy in the mornings, now it seems to be all day. I just turned 44 so...

When I've had a fight with a woman that that was bad enough to make say loose my number I've always stuck to it. I met the girl for lunch on Saturday. I'm not sure exactly why I showed up, I feel like a sucker but it was actually a really great time. We talked for almost two hours without anyone looking at our phones,...

I just realized I'm 5 years sober.
It's funny that you never remember someone's phone number. Once they have called you you savery it in your contacts. I was having a good day until I got a phone call from a number that I didn't recognize and made the mistake of answering it. I deleted the girls number from my phone, I should have blocked it.
I'm in my mid 40's you...

Getting ready for date night and the girl calls. It looks like I no longer have a girlfriend.
Nothing like being dumped right before your birthday.
We are calling one of my co-workers "Patient Zero" because he brought a head cold into the office and managed to spread it to everyone around him, including me.
I had plans for this weekend. too bad I'm all doped up on cold meds. going to make more tea.
