already 30 days into January... already!
the last couple weeks have been a crazy blur, but we've gotten through it once again...
hells, the past year has been a blur - though not necessarily crazy as a whole.
been reminiscing here-and-there with the new officemate... demn, I did some crazy shit in my time - and somehow survived it all
there are times where I...

*whew* survived another crazy-busy week... over 50hrs again... but at least I can say I (finally) completed a work-goal
...even if it did take me until mid-day today - and had an original goaltime of last Friday... *coughs* ANYways...
not much goin' on - as is the usual - the Children's Museum visit was highly enjoyable
the girls are at the age where it's...

demn... s'been one helluva week.
(and, yes, I struggled for a subject to this posting - sorry)
cold, cold, cold as all friggin' get out - even woke up to no heat in the apartment this mornin' *shivers*
working just under 50hrs - just a wee bit over my county/state-allowable 45hrs... here's hoping I don't get that dreaded call!
and, well, that's about it... but...

2015: The International Year Of Light
Another New Year's Eve without a New Year's Eve kiss... not unusual, mind you - I'm batting .000 for a lifetime of New Year's Eve kisses!
unfortunately the few Near Year's Eve dates I've had cannot say the same - and then some - but that's another story :(
I was asleep well before the ball dropped on...

I have survived "unthinkable" things in my lifetime...
car accidents ( including one where my skull was cracked )
attack/robberies ( including one where head-damage was further incurred )
health issues ranging from minor to severe, including a lifelong one ( where I was told I wouldn't live half as long as I have )
these all have one thing in common... at no point...

memoria has, as much as I can remember, been a big factor in my life and how I live it ( Life is about Living, as I've said before and will likely say until I die )
an amusing factor, I must add, since as some of you know, my memory is shattered and in some cases completely gone due to multiple instances of head...

Oi! All one has to do is turn on the local news (TV or online) and see that there are times when the world becomes a very strange place...
a world where suddenly laws have no bearing, where asshats come out in droves spouting about their "rights," and people want the world to change - but only forthemselves and their advantage, fuck the...

rom the engineering standpoint on Form, Fit, and Function, Function is THE most important aspect
something can look and feel and fit like a rubber, but if it doesn't act like a rubber it's just decoration for your dick
moving on, now that I'm sure I've bored SOMEbody out there...
My life is past - or, to be more specific - my life is IN...

Several days past due and... honestly... I've got nothin'.
Seriously, nothin' a'tall to write about.
This is beyond even my usual "I've got nothin'" postings where I end up ramblin' on about somethin' until I annoy even myself.
The only thing I can even THINK of that'd be humerous to write about is a really bad Michael Jackson joke that I told the day after...

when it comes to work, my battle plan is fairly simple...
hit priorities first - these are established by the GM and myself, and oftimes change in the daily AM meeting
I only break away from priorities if I'm asked to do so by the GM or if another department flags an e'mail as "high priority" or e'mails me and follows up with its urgency...

The onslaught of "how can they make employees work on [place holiday here]?" begins again... Give. It. Up. Already.
To start, there is NO federal law requiring private employers give employees holidays nor provide additional "holiday pay" - but normal overtime pay still applies.
And why only these specific holidays bother you so much?! not all countries, nor people, celebrate YOUR holidays - let alone...

Last week's trip, assisting a good friend in the UP, was a wonderful trip!

and getting to finally meet his wife and son was...
