Day 617: A quickie
This one tonight has to be a quick one, as it's already 2am and I have to get up in the morning. Sad face. Today was a struggle work-wise. It is what it is. I get distracted by other things outside of my control, and I lose momentum. I wish I was more adept at pushing...
Day 616: The mother of all hijackings…
Ya...so today as in work? Did not happen. At least not how I planned it. Instead, the mother of all plumbing jobs happened 😛 That's slightly hyperbole. It was by no means the worst it could have been. Oh, no. It could have been way waaaay worse. As it was, it was a...
Day 615: Pipes a burstin’
Yeah, THAT happened today. A call from one of my tenants saying that his was was starting to bubble water. Not good. I had to turn the water off in the building because it was in the walls as opposed to right underneath someone's drain...ie- it was in with the pipes...
Day 614: ‘Merica, fuck yeah
Happy Birthday America. The stars and stripes turned...239 today...I think. 1776, right? That's when we signed the Declaration of Independence? Or was it 1492 when Columbus sailed the ocean blue? All those kid-facts, rattling around in our heads...hard to keep 'em...
Day 613: A high watermark
Man...I freaking *crushed* today. Crushed it. Like, imagine I was really, really huge, super large like a giant, and today was a tiny little mini marshmellow and I came over and fell on it. And it was a super warm day, too, so the mini marshmellow was already melting,...
Day 612: Turning a corner
First off...today is July 2, 2015. My late younger brother Russell was born on July 2, 1989, and he died on September 19, 2006. He would have been 26 today, having a quarter life crises, struggling perhaps to find a job after college...it's just very sad. Sad that he...
Day 611: Sleep, Data
Artwork tonight from John Berkey. Rest. I was pretty bushwhacked today, and I still feel pretty bushwhacked to be honest, if only because I love the term bushwhacked. It just sounds nice. And robust. Robust is another fun word. Cooper and Coco are sleeping down...
Day 610: These fingers…
They are tired. Today was exactly what I wanted it to be. I rocked it. I still fell *just* shy of my goal...but to be fair, my goal was extremely, extremely ambitious. I have 3 1/2 minutes left to stretch over tomorrow and the next day. Not too bad, eh? Not too bad....
Day 609: One to go…
Today was day two of the June 2015 work extravaganza. It was much less successful than day one because of various "distractions," most of which were beyond my control. Coco is currently *underneath* the covers next to me, being all cute and shit. The Ho and I had a...
Day 608: One down…
...two more to go. Of the June 2015 work extravaganza. Today was a rousing success. I was on-time for most of the day, and slipped behind by an hour or so at my worst, which means I still had time to rally at the end and finish. 27 minutes of finished work. It was...
