- Don’t look shocked that I don’t complain about my work schedule.
- Paycheck cashes just fine, so I’m ready to work when the time comes.
- I paid enough money today to buy an AR-15 at before-election prices to put new tires on my truck. Tomorrow I will spend enough to buy a pre-election case of 5.56mm to get the brakes redone.
- Oh well, can’t take it with you, and I need the truck to last at least another two years.
- Boo has been cooped up in the house all day due to school being out and the weather being cold and wet.
- I’ll have to find somewhere indoors tomorrow where he can bounce around at full speed for a while.
- Moonshine needs to work some energy out too. Maybe there’s an indoor dog park in Louisville?
- For once, the weather during the drive home sucked and the road was packed with skillful and polite drivers.
- My wife believes I know how to safely and properly rewire the bathroom. This is not going to end well.
- I’m going to enjoy the first weekend in a month and a half that I don’t have to go into work.
- The after dinner movie tonight was “Chicken Little“. It just seemed appropriate.
- I have been informed that my daughter will love me forever if I keep the truck running long enough for her to take possession of it in a few years.
- It would be nice if she learned to drive a stick.
- It would also be good to give her an older vehicle she’ll have to work on every weekend.
- I also know for sure she won’t be racing anyone in that thing.

/ March 2, 2013I know what you mean about work schedules. I got a pretty crappy one at my new job and everyone is surprised I don’t complain about it, but it’s a job so I’m happy.
Even better, I should be getting a new schedule soon that has somewhat better hours–at least I’ll be able to get to weekend shooting events if I hurry.

/ March 2, 2013I actually have a good schedule, and what pain there is is evenly distributed. Someone on another work group was trying to drum up solidarity because they have to work the occasional late night or weekend, and I didn’t take the bait.

/ March 2, 2013Yep job = good, and good luck with the wiring… Don’t ‘assume’ it’s all on one breaker either (BTDT, got my attention)..

/ March 3, 2013Interior wiring isn’t hard.
Get a basic wiring book and read it- then remember
1) Don’t grab a bare wire without testing it (they make meters)
2) Green (or bare) is ground, white is neutral and any other color is hot.

/ March 4, 2013Don’t be too sure that your daughter can’t race the truck. My daughter was able to break a speed record (said the fellow who handed her the ticket) next to our Hall of Justice.
