Accomplished some good technical legerdemain at work today. My coworkers are calling me an idiot for mucking about with furnaces and vacuum pumps when I should have finished my degree a decade ago. I guess I agree...somewhat. At what point is it so important for me to be more than comfortable? Actually I do want more, but mainly I just want a job that I...

A little under the weather. Seem to be gradually cultivating this cold or upper respiratory ickness.... and then I may have fractured my toe again. shoosh.
mostly just tired. Winter's coming on. I really don't like winter. I'm not huge on the whole holiday season and that seems to be winter's only redeeming quality. I hate being cold. absolutely hate it. I can sit in...

I share your dislike of the cold. I live for my electric blanket from December to March. If you're still having the upper-respiratory gremlins, try the medicine with the grossest name ever: Mucinex. The original formula (expectorant, but not cough supressant) will loosen the nonsense in your lungs. I swear it makes a huge difference.

No need for the doc. It's over the counter. I got the advice to use it from my pharmacist.
And aging sucks, but it's a thousand times better than the alternative....
Feel better!

bluevalentine:
dont think I'm not considering. I want photos of the wedding party on the train for sure.
actually I'm gonna post something else. that last bit was a lil more of the drunken navelgazing and woe is me than I really want.
mostly this morning I'm just really happy that I remembered to drink two large glasses of water before I fell asleep at damn near 6am so that I'm not a walking mass of headache and nausea.

I live in a shitty neighborhood, so me running outside is a joke - I try and get to 24hr Fitness whenever I can.
I know exactly what you mean about work, I ask for more responsibility or a "challenge" and they just give me more of the same crap.
As far as video games, I've been trying to finish FFX (which I wasn't a big fan of to begin with, but it makes me nuts that I haven't finished it), a little Need for Speed Pro Street, Mercenaries, SOCOM... stuff like that, I haven't used the PS2 for more than a DVD player in a long time.
I need to pick up some more games an a new memory card.

Nothing like a raucous game of Cranium accompanied by booze to make things feel better 
I just had the strangest dream. something involving the proper etiquette amongst professional sword fighters/ marathoners at a gathering in New York circa 1922.
one of those strange dreams that the brain tries to process but then just goes" WTF?!!?!" and wakes you up out of so it doesn't have to bother anymore. sort of like a cantankerous old movie director who finds that someone...

Thank you. And LOL Penfold reference

That may be the nicest thing anyone has said about me. Thanks so much for the compliment. 
I definitely think you get to skip the run. I have certainly had dreams that I wake up from exhausted... (and not only the sex ones).

Sooooooooooooooooooooo. what to update.
Surviving my work schedule. It's actually not as hectic as it seems, since my workday has many small breaks throughout. I work in A/C and Heating service, so I go to peoples' homes and fix their malfunctioning furnaces and what not and sometimes I'll finish a job and wait for half and hour to an hour before another one comes in....

I know! I was excited to get all of their songs....their live album is incredible. I saw them in concert last year in California
soooooooooo. I was supposed to work late last night...or at least I was the guy on call for after hours or what not, but I was rescued from having to work past 7pm when my work truck's engine caught fire. thank goodness for that! no, really. Actually it didn't so much catch fire as eat the belt and pull a hose loose so that fluid...

SEXAY MAN! Can I take you out for coffee sometime?
Long day at work. Listened as much as I could on the radio to the election coverage and lucked out in that the last house that I worked at tonight belonged to an Obama supporter, so I stood around and watched PBS coverage with her and her family. And the incomparable infinitelykaty kept me up to date on everything from flipped states to free chikfila...

turns out that soreness in my legs from running was a stage 2 quadriceps strain (ie muscle tear). oops.

Mmmm tasty.
But really, about the drugs, I always told myself that I would have more than enough time to do those sorts of things once I EAS'd and no longer had to worry about drug tests.
