Two boys, Tyler and Dylan, 14-year-old twins who couldn’t be any different from each other, woke up one morning to find their grandfather Jim sitting at their kitchen table eating breakfast. Seeing Grandpa was quite a surprise, he lived more…
God Keeps Providing
I am just praising God today. My career has been a rough ride since graduating from college in May of 2001. I’m on my fourth job, and have spent about half my time in “the real world” unemployed. My first…
My Favorite Workday
Today turned into one of those days I put in the category of “Favorite Workdays”. The easiest way for a day to get into that category is to be a “take free stuff home” day. Our main Mac Computer guy…
Hanging In There
Today has to be the most boring day I’ve had in months. I am staying busy, but the work I have is not exciting me in the least bit. If it weren’t for halfway interesting talk radio, I’d probably walk…
The Perfect Day for Some Flying
I got my trip in yesterday. A co-worker and I flew to Indiana to measure a building we are going to be working on. It was a total blast. We did about 4 hours of work, and spent about 5…
Cancelled
No trip today. There is icing conditions all the way between here and Indiana. It’s possible we can go tomorrow, but more likely it will be Tuesday. Someone should hunt down Old Man Winter and kick his @$$.
A Break in the Usual
I got some great news today. I’m getting away from the computer and out of the office on Wednesday. One of the guys I work with and I are flying down to Indiana to get some measurements of a building…

On Work and Computers
I just got back from Circuit City, and am still on my lunch break. I decided to get a new mouse for my computer at work. The mouse issue has been a bit frustrating. Honestly though, I’m not complaining because…
Gimme Something To Do
Today is another one of those days I know I’m going to look back to someday and wish for. It’s one of those days that isn’t so great, but looking back it will look pretty good. I got the day’s…
…One To Go
<rant> Today was a relatively short day at work. That doesn’t mean it went great though. I was subbing on a route rated at about 3½ hours, and it took me about 6 hours to do. The biggest thing that…
It’s the Mouse
I’m still not a big fan of Macs after using one for a little over a week. I did find one thing that made a big difference though. I brought a mouse from home that has 2 buttons and a…
Actual Work
Today I started getting o do some actual work. It’s fairly simple really, I was just asked to put some old drawings into the computer. Not too hard normally, but learning this new system will mean that it will take…
