Wanna goto work for me?
Well I am hoping that someone would say yes. I had a hell of a day. Damn machines just didn't have it in themselves to cooperate. Hopefully it will be better tomorrow. Rumor has is that on Sunday we are going to start the changeover. That means we are switching from one part to another. I know, no big deal to those of you out there.

The rest of the day was uneventful. Well if you count that I try to spend some quiet time to myself when I got home. But some people had better ideas They wanted to talk to me. So my quiet time got cut short. Maybe I'll have some when I goto sleep in a little while.

And speaking of going to sleep. It is getting about that time. I really want to read another chapter of "To the Nines" tonight too. So I'm going to do that and head off to bed. Maybe tomorrow will be more exciting!

cc fraud strikes again!
Yep, it's almost that time again. I know I have not posted anything much here the past couple of days. Well the truth is that I have not been home. Not to mention that like only one person reads this, so what's the use of putting stuff here?

Not much happened over the last few days. I finally got to see Terminator 3. It was pretty good. I dragged Jason with me. Not sure if he was really impressed with it. For that matter I am not really sure he wanted to go see it, but at least it got him out of the house for a while. I also bought two new DVD's - Mrs. Doubtfire and Meet Joe Black. I'll watch them sometime next week.

Not much else happened. Well there was this one email saying that my Earthlink account had been suspended, but that was a person just trying to get my credit info. A lot of good my credit stuff would do for him or her! LOL. I did call Earthlink after getting pissed off because I thought the email was real. The more I think about it, the more of an idiot I was for believing that crap anyway. Oh well, I did send that person some good info in the name of "Mr Fuq Yu" I am sure they will happy to see that. I wish I could see the look oh his or her face when it is read! I really try to be careful throwing my credit card info around as it the number was stolen last year. I got a $40 charge for some porno site. Damn, if I was going to look at porn on the internet, it sure as hell wouldn't be at a pay site. There are way too many places to get porn for FREE!

Guess that's all for tonight. Hope more people start reading this. If not, I might discontinue it. I will at least stop posting to it as much.

the work week starts
OK, so we are off to another boring ass Monday. Work wasn't too bad. Assembly has been down all day for like two days in a row because of a machine failure. Something about they need a new motherboard. I'm like go buy one from the computer store. Obviously they can't just do that. Oh well, it was a good thought. At least I thought it was.

I know the style of the page is sort of messed up. I am going to work on it some Wednesday or so. So you'll just have to deal with it until then :-)

Not much else going on at this time. I am gonna eat my supper (of frozen pizza) and then read for a while. Another day at the workplace tomorrow. I'll let you know what happens.

weekend is over
OK, so the weekend's over. Not too bad I guess. I spent a lot of time on the road. I did get to spend time reading as well. I am now finished with "Hot Six" and am about halfway through with "Seven Up".

Not much else to write tonight. I have a few things to do before bed. Work again tomorrow. Why do I have to be an adult and have to work? YUCK! I need a job that pays well that I can just go do when I want. Oh well, wishful thinking..

new colors
OK, so I created a new color scheme for the blog. I also added some enhancements on the other pages. I have been slightly working on the links page. I know you are just dying to see that page back up and running, right?

So how do you like my new color scheme? I think it turned out pretty well. And of course Tripod doesn't give me the option of editing everything I really wanted to edit. So I had to take those matters into my own hands. I just downloaded the stylesheet that controls evertyhing on there. It's kind of tricky though. I just hope they don't get too ticked! But hell, I just wanted something that fit inline with the rest of my coloring on the site.

I finished "Four to Score" a little while ago. Not a bad book. Looks like things are getting steamier between Stephanie and Joe. Should be interesting to see what's in store for them in the next books. I know some of you might have already read them, but I haven't. I will have them finished in another week or two though. I have to read books 6-9.

I managed to give the dogs a much needed bath today as well. I had to bail out on going to Augusta this evening. I wasn't really in the mood, plus the storms have started rolling in.

Not sure at this point what my plans are for tomorrow. I thinking of going out of town to visit a friend. I'll decide at the last minute as usual!

Urgh! IT's getting close to bedtime. Peace!

the static is gone!
Well after a week or two of procrastinating - ok, so it was longer - I finally took the computer speaker volume controller apart. I was getting tired of the static it was giving when I turned the volume up and down. It was really annoying. And really LOUD. I guess that's what happens when one has a 400-watt set of speakers! For those of you who don't know, I have the Logitech Z-560 series. Pretty nice, but I want the new ones that are 450- or 500-watt (depends on which place you get the info from) Logitech Z-680's. Those babies really rock.

The thing I don't understand with taking this controller apart was the fact that it was glued together. No little tabs or no little screws holding it together. Rather weird. I guess they don't want you taking those apart. Well I did it anyway. Now I have to get some glue and put it back. I might just leave the rubber bands on it for now in case that annoying static sound comes back. They just needed a little cleaning done to the contacts. Amazing what a little can of air can do!

Well it's getting close to 5 PM and I really thought I would be at the Outback by now. But Rubenia had other plans for tonight. She said maybe tomorrow. I'm thinking yes, maybe tomorrow! That will give me a reason to get out of going to that fish fry. I am not really into fish anyway!

Daddy managed to get his car out of the shop yesterday. I have not taken a close look at it to see how well it's fixed. Although it doesn't really matter to me. I don't have to drive it!

That's all for now. I still see noone posts any comments but Jason. I guess no one reads this, or else they are just too chicken shit to write something.

Yes, the weekend is HERE!
Yes, the weekend is finally here. And that is a good thing after the long day I had yesterday. I worked the normal 12-hour shift thing. That means I get up at about 4:30. Work went pretty good. The supervisor entrusted me to the machines on my own yesterday.

After work, I went by to see my sister and pick up a book she had for me. From there I went to Zaxby's and then headed over to Jason's to watch CSI. I actually got to meet his mom. I bet she was beginning to wonder if I actually existed or if I was some sort of imaginary friend that Jason had made up!

I finally made it home about 12:30 AM. That was a long damn day. The good thing is that I slept well and am now looking foward to the rest of the weekend. My plans are to head to Outback for drinks and dinner tonight. That is unless Rubenia and Millard bail out on me. I'll call them later. . Tomorrow I am supposed to goto a fish fry at my cousin's. There's gonna be plenty of SKF people there, including my supervisor. That may be a reason not to go! LOL. I guess we'll see what happens. I might drop in for a short while if nothing else.

I'd like to go catch a movie or two this weekend. After all I still have not seen Terminator 3. Anyone want to join me? Well, I guess that's it for now. More later .. maybe!

Where oh where is my best friend?
Well, I am assuming that since he was up at 5AM just to talk to me, he's gone to bed already. But that doesn't explain him being offline. Weird. And no, I am not thinking highly of myself! LOL.

I've been playing that online trading card game over at harrypotter.com for quite sometime. I am one card away from finishing the game now. It certainly has taken long enough! I will try to send out offers for that one last card tomorrow. Then I can move onto the SS trading game. I got lots of extras on there, but need about 8 or so to finish. IF you want to get involved, let me know by emailing me. I'll be happy to tell you how to get started.

We are supposed to have am "important, bad news" meeting in the morning at work. That should be fun. I definately am not looking foward to it. This is especially after they kept me over an hour tonight for some stupid safety meeting. IMHO, the meeting I went to tonight should have taken place within my first day or two of working there. Oh well, can't have everything. But I mean I have worked there nearly two months and they are just now sending me to a "safety awareness" meeting. What kind of shit is that? But at least they do let the employees know that safety is a highly respected virtue. The supervisor said something about it when i started. Anyway.. just weird.

Well being no one is talking to me, I am going to get off of here and go read and then goto sleep. And don't fall over everyone, Daddy actually got off his ass, went to the store and cooked! Well, I of course didn't eat because I was not hungry. But at least he done something. HE's in there washing dishes as I type.

Oh well, I'm outta here! Someone please post something so I'll know who reads this!

At the home place again
Well I managed to make it back to the Lake in one piece. I really hate the drive anymore.

Not a whole lot happened today. I finished reading "High Five" this morning. I went to the library and picked up "Four to Score" and "To the Nines". After there, I went to Vicki's house to try and hook up the scanner for her. No luck with that. She has Windows XP and the scanner was like Windows 95 days - so it won't work. But she understood completely.

I stayed there for a while talking with her and Jack, then decided to head home. I stopped by Sonic. I contemplated stopping by to see Jason, but it was already almost 7PM, and I have to work tomorrow. So I guess I will go see him another day.

So now I am home and kind of bored, so I'm about to start reading "Four to Score". I will let you know how well I like it when I finish it.

Have fun for everyone who reads this. No wait, there is only one person who does actually read this! Anyway, have fun doing whatever. And be sure to think about me while I am being a slave at work tomorrow.

home sweet home
Well I wouldn't really say that I have a home sweet home at this point in time. I have a place where I live. And I would rather stay away from there. So that's what I am doing tonight. So I decided I would torture my sister by staying at her house tonight. But she's really good about it and doesn't mind putting up with me for a bit.

We managed some Chinese for supper tonight. I was thankful for that. It settle my two week craving for Chinese food. Although I would have loved to have some Seasame Chicken. But I settled for the Pepper Steak and Shrimp Fried Rice. I did enjoy it. It was really good tonight. Guess the good cook was there!

Well, I did see an awful wreck this morning. I was on my way to get my haircut and got stuck in the traffic. I was stuck there moving inch by inch for about 25 minutes. And this was in maybe a half of mile stretch. And I tell you that it is amazing if the person(s) in the SUV survived the accident. That thing was practically ran over by a tractor trailer. I shuidder at the thought of it.

I remembered something about work that I should have posted last night. Someone told me what SKF stands for. For those of you who don't know, SKF makes wheel bearings for cars and trucks. And they are probably the most known name in wheel bearings. But anyway I was told that it stands for "some kind of fuck"! Anyway, I thought that was cute.

I also found out last night there is going to be a new addition to our family. My uncle has decided to get married. He was married once before. But that was like 20 years ago. I wonder if he will know how to act being married! But I wish him the best of luck. His fiance is really nice too. And he's a good man, and I think he deserves a good woman.

Well I guess that's all for tonight folks. I really don't know what else to say. Oh yeah, I get to visit the library tomorrow and pick up my book which is waiting on me - "Four to Score". I did finish the "Bone Collector" this morning. And since I needed something else to read, I started with "High Five". I really wanted to read them in order. I guess I'll have to read those two in reverse order. Oh well. They still make sense. So far! Have fun, and I'll try to post again soon. Well for those of you who aren't reading this anyway!
