That's Thursday!
« on: March 26, 2009, 06:52:47 AM »
This week is going by WAY too damn fast.  How come they never zip along like this when I'm working?

28 degrees, going to 51.  Sunny this morning but the clouds and rain will be moving in this evening into tonight.

Did my first "read" day of work at the cardroom as poker dealer.  Can't complain.  6 hours of work, made some decent tips, and got paid back for my licensing fee.  And before you say, "playing cards isn't work!", YOU shuffle cards for six hours and see how your wrists feel.  Guaranteed to kill any desire for masturbation, male or female.

Doing a bit more yardwork/garden prep before heading in to work couple of hours again tonight.

What's in YOUR world?

Rainy soggy day here....hoping baseball is cancelled tonight, 'cause I want to go watch my daughter's jazz class.   Heading to the grocery store later to pick up some stuff, might take a nap today.

Which reminds me.  Poker room might be quiet tonight, so I need to 1--bring a change of street clothes with me if I want to play, 2--get some beer so I have some in the house.

yep...that's me!   Seriously though, I was up for a bit last night.  I just did my Shred workout, and as soon as I rover enough to raise my arms so I can wash my hair, I'm taking a shower, then going to the grocery store.   A nap when I get home sounds divine!

Work day, as usual.

Monthly safety committee meeting this morning (which I chair). Then the usual crap involving job hazard assessments and PPE wailing and moaning.

Staff meeting this morning.

Will work a bit more on my process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (in which I take a detailed look at Congress  :rotf: )

Outta here an hour early today because I gotta gig tonight. This, despite the freakin' #$%! fever blister that decided to erupt on my upper lip yesterday.  :banghead:

I'll be bringing the trial euph and The Howitzer along. There's a piece called "Action Brass" that has me written all over it.  :yahoo:  I just love mean 'n nasty bass trombone stuff.  :shucks:
Adams E2 Euphonium, built in 2017
Boosey & Co. Imperial Euphonium, built in 1941
Edwards B454 bass trombone, built 2012
Bach Stradivarius 42OG tenor trombone, built 1992
Kanstul 33-T BBb tuba, built 2011
Fender Precision Bass Guitar, built ?

Cloudy, cool... in other words, nice (to me).

Just got done with a government test, have a Student Veteran's Assoc. meeting this afternoon, then photography class. Once that's done, my weekend starts. And what a fun weekend I have planned... typing up 80 pages of notes. Yup, I'm a  :loser:

My ears, nose, throat, and eyes are all revolting against me today.

The wind was really stirred up last night at the baseball game. It was chilly (by Arizona standards) and the lawn I was sitting on was cold too. I brought a jacket and a blanket but I think the wind might have done me in.

The only things I plan to do when I get home is take a hot bath and go to bed early.

It's starting to get nasty outside.

Indeed.  I've decided when this school term is almost over to start looking for a new job.

I thought you like busting peoples knee caps for back payments?

Did the job go south or are you just looking for something new?

I'm done with the manipulation, lying and intimidation from my boss.  I just need to be away from here/her.

That's my plan tonight...a hot soak and early slumber.  Maybe a hot chocolate with whipped cream(spiked with cognac) too.  I had that kind of day.

Just don't let that job go until you have something new *SET IN STONE!* It's what my mom has told me as I've been putting in applications elsewhere, trying to find a job that won't take its toll on my health near as much as the current one. :(

Good luck on the job search. :)

I'm also in need of a good long soak... just wish I had some bath salts (The Healing Garden's lavender salts are wonderful).

I get to sleep in tomorrow... NO WORK!  Just pick up a paycheck, get a new student id, and that's it for me.  :p

Sounds like we need a Schade tub thread.  :evillaugh: Most of you don't know about Schade's tub..... perhaps you wouldn't come if I started one, but trust me, the intimacy is like no other. Don't believe me?  :evillaugh:

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
