Oh the night is over
Yep yep, I finished my first night on third shift. It wasn't too bad. I guess it would have been better if I had slept more yesterday. But it seemed that everyone wanted to keep me awake!

I did get some good news when I went to work last night. I am getting moved from assembly to turning! WOOHOO! I just hope they don't change their minds about that as I'd rather work in turning. And I have my old supervisor, Scot, to thank for that move.

I also changed my cell phone number last night. I get tired of everyone having to call long distance to call me on it. I now have a local number for people in Aiken AND Augusta. I thought I had an Aiken number, but it turns out that I have a North Augusta number. Those are much better! I was having a problem with my text messages - I was not getting them. But I got on the wire with Verizon this AM and got it all straightened out. I also had to get my voice mail password, as all that got reset. But I am up and running now.

OK, it's like 9:20 and I'm tired. I shall goto bed in a few minutes, after I rid myself of this heartburn. And I don't know when I shall wake up! I do not have to work tonight, but I have to go back Sunday night. Have fun!

i forgot
Oh yeah I forgot. I hate this fucking new system that Tripod has come up with! Now the links pop up! That goes against my pop-up blocker! I have to see if there is a way around that. If so, of course I will change it!

new schedule!
Yes, that is correct! I do have a new schedule. I just hope you can keep up with me. As of today, I worked my last twelve hour shift. Well that is of course until they change again. But you never know with SKF, that could be next month! As of 2 January 2004, I go back on third shift. I will be working from 10:30 PM to 6:45 AM. I know I will be working at least five days a week. There is no telling how many six and seven day work weeks we'll have. I just have to wait and see.

Right now I am just going to enjoy my week off. Christmas should be interesting this year. Honestly it just doesn't feel like Christmas to me this year. Maybe I am just getting too old for it or something. I just can't quite put my finger on it. I just know I am not into it as much as I usually am.

So who wants to join in for New Year's festivities with Jason and I? I usually like to stay around the house because I like to throw down some drinks that night. And after doing that, being out and about is definately not the thing to be doing. I usually spend New Year's Eve with a few friends. So far the only one planning to be here here is Jason. Millard already has other plans.. Rubenia.. Well I won't even go there.. rofl. I have room for two or three others if anyone has no plans and wants to join us. Of course you have to bring your own booze. I certainly can't provide for ya!

Just in case I don't write again - MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

oh damn
Well it appears that Tripod is changing thing over here. I hope it doesn't affect my blog too much. Well, I honestly don't know why I care about that because I barely post anyway!

I just posted about two weeks ago and it wasn't like this. I guess they trying to get fancy on me. Maybe you are wonder what I am referring. Well, actually you - the visitor - can't see it. Other than one little thing I noticed, now where it used to say "comments" it says "post your comment(x)". Good thing that they have not zapped my custom style sheet this page is based upon. If they do that, I am gonna be really pissed! I worked long and hard to get these colors like I want them.

Not a whole lot going on with life. Jason's birthday is Sunday. I still have not gotten him anything. But I have a few ideas what to get him! But I am not sure he'll like that 18" dildo! I guess you never know though! Christmas is coming up next week too. I have yet to put out my Christmas decorations. TBH, I am not sure if I am gonna mess with it. I am not in the mood to do it this year. I also have very little room to set stuff out anyway, so why bother?

Well Jason has this fucked up away message up when I got out of the shower. I guess that means he's gone for the evening. Now I have no one with whom to chat. I guess that means I will go watch another movie or something.

How many Lord of the Rings fans are out there? I just watched The Two Towers today. It was OK. I guess there is alot that is referred from the first movie that I don't remember. It has been about a year or so since I actually watched the first movie. Maybe I should go back and watch it again. But I am not sure I want to sit through a four hour movie right now. I am not sure what I will watch. I have a few movies that I have not watched yet.

Of course, I could just ditch all that and goto bed. That might be my best choice anyway, as I need not sleep my day away tomorrow. I only have four more work days before I get time off for Christmas. Of course, I am not going to know how to act with a week off either. I hope they give me off January 2nd and 3rd as I still want to go see Rocky Horror. Well that if it is still going to be performed. I have find out. If anyone knows about this, please let me know!

I think I am going to redo some things on my site. If you have any ideas let know. I am open for suggestions. Of course that doesn't mean that I will necessarily use them, but I will definately think about them - if I like the idea that is!

Ok, this should hold you for a while. More at a later time..

nearly a month has passed...
Well, it has been nearly a month since I posted here. Obviously no one has wondered about it being no one has emailed me. Oh well, I see how well I am loved!

Not much has really happened in the last month. It's about the same old thing. Work, sleep, work sleep.. you get the idea. Oh yeah Thanksgiving was last week. That wasn't too bad. We had more food than we really needed. And I didn't get stuck eating leftovers all weekend. That's only because I chose not to take any with me when I left!

Jason's birthday is only 19 days away. Well I am sure I know what I will get him - a bundle of switches! LOL. I am sure he will like those. I don't really know what I will get him. I do have some ideas though. And why he had to be born four days before Christmas is beyond me. That just means I have to buy for him twice.

I am trying to get Daddy's machine back up and running. It was doing something really weird at his house. It was locking up when playing a sound. I bring it here and it played them fine. At least for a while. Then I got to noticing that everything is freezing, no matter what I try to access. I think the hard drive is going out. So he's gonna have to buy a new one. Not too bad, he can get a 40 GB for about $60. That isn't too bad. And that should hold everything he will ever need. I got him up and running right now with just a 4.3 GB drive. I know it's nothing for space, but at least it's running for now.

Well I guess that's all for now. I'll try to write in here more often!

Where have you been?
You may have asked your self this question. The answer is simple, I have just not been writing! LOL WEll, I have my reasons. A lot of it is the fact that I am kind of getting bored with this. I write when I can but that's it. I might mess around with my site a little this weekend. That is if I get really bored or something.
I have not decided what I will do with this weekend. I have lots of things I really need to do. The problem is that I don't want to do most of them. So who knows what will come of it. I'll let you know if anything exciting comes up!

watching flicks
Yep yep, I rented a couple of movies to watch. The Matrix Reloaded and Daddy Day Care . Both were pretty good. I'll have to admit that The Matrix DVD was sort of fucked up. I'll have to get that one again so I can watch it over. I really should just buy it. I think the next Matrix movie is due out next week. I'll have to check into that so I can go see it.

Work is this weekend, so don't expect much out of me outside of SKF. I hope things are running rather smoothly up there. It was a really fucked up day Monday. We are supposed to be having a dinner at work on Sunday. I get to make a broccoli casserole to take. That should be interesting as I've never made one before. I hope I don't fuck it up too badly!

OK I guess that's all for now. I'll try to write more. I guess. Have fun!

is anyone out there?
Well I've decided to write a little bit here. I know there is probably no need. Yeah, I have a boring life! ROFL. What's been going on in the last week? I can't think of a whole lot. Work? Well I think we are changing part types this week. I am thinking of asking if I can go work in turning while we are on this part. That is because I am really not needed in assembly while we run this part.

I am still having to do the physical therapy for my knee. I am dreading when the bill for that comes in! Couple that with the fact that I have to fork out money to fix the truck, it is not going to be a good month next month! I still don't know what it's going to cost to fix the truck. I'm kind of scared to find out.

I'm thinking of having a couple of friends over Friday and/or Saturday night. I am not sure yet. I think a lot of that will depend on who's around and if I get the place tidy enough for guests. I'll have to say that I've actually been trying hard to clean up and stuff lately. Jason came over one day last week and help me move a bunch of boxes and stuff.

I'm definately looking foward to sleeping late and staying up half the night over the weekend! Last night was the latest I've been up in a long time. I was up til about 3 or 3:30. I can't remember which. I know I won't stay up that late tonight because I have work tomorrow! So I'll more than likely be in bed by 11. Jason couldn't handle it tonight, he went to bed about 8:30. I guess since he stayed up til just after 2AM and was back up at 6:30 he's kind of wore out. One of these days he'll learn that doing that isn't such a good idea!

Mike if you read this, I wish you the best of luck tomorrow. Be sure to let me know how things go. I will be here after about 8 PM. You can always email me if you have to bail on the computer or whatever!

Well that's all for now. Have fun fellas!

no one's listening
Does anyone ever listen to me when I offer my two cents? I don't think so. Take my sister - Krista. I told her a couple of months ago when she was looking for a computer to let me know before she bought anything. And did she? Hell no! But I wish her luck with her new Gateway. She also got six months of free AOhell. I tried to tell her again that she really didn't need that. Of course she didn't listen. And now she's getting her first taste of what it's like on there. She called me this morning saying that she had to call AOL because her account was locked. It appears that someone got her password and spammed a bunch of people from her account. Well, I told her she should NEVER get out her pw. Maybe she won't have any more trouble, but with them you never know.

Work was not bad yesterday. Although I have to admit getting to this new boss is gonna take a while. I walked off to go pee, after I told the guy beside me that I'd brb, and the boss said I had to tell him! Well what if that sorry fucker ain't around? Needless to say that kind of got off with me. I had to just brush it off. What I cannot deal with is the fact I'm getting the run around about my pay raise. I am gonna try to hold off a couple more weeks before asking about it. But I definately feel I deserve it. I still have a couple of the others who have been there a long while asking me questions about some of the machines. IT just annoys me to death. Maybe I'll get lucky soon.

My knee is starting to feel a bit better. I turned on it yesterday (by mistake) and I heard a pop. I thought that would have done me in, but actually it seemed to help. It didn't really bother me anymore until I got home last night. And now this morning it's got a slight ache, but nothing unbearable. I get to goto physical therapy tomorrow morning at 8AM. Just what I need on my day off! To have to get up early!

I just talked to Rubenia. She wants me to join her after work. I've got to hear about her new job. She said she likes it. So I'll get the details later. I need to call Millard and make sure he'll be there too!

Well I guess that's all for now.

doc's visit
Yep yep, I managed to make it to the doctor's office today to let them have a look at this bummed up knee. I figured after nearly falling in the shower this morning it was about time. Of course they gotta try the simple stuff first, so I am on this med and I have to go to physical therapy on Thursday morning. So that should be fun.

I got to meet Jason's friend Mike today. I hope I didn't scare him too bad! I know I am a weirdo. People just have to deal with me! One of these days I'm gonna get everything fixed up in here so I can invite people over without feeling bad about them coming into a messy house!

Well that's all for tonight because it's bedtime! L8r hoes!
