Hey Mac!
So as I’ve said before, I want to change my name. At first, it was simple, and common. My family name was going to be something Irish. But I dragged my ass and dragged my ass and it never happene...
Overburned...
Well.. I really did it to myself this week. Monday, I bit off a little more than I could chew, when I picked up an emergency call with an already tight schedule. It took me longer than I expected...
Hot as hell...
We’re in the middle of a massive heatwave in Seattle. It crossed 100F in town today, and got to high 90’s out where I am. Tomorrow, it’s expected to cross 110F in Seattle, and 106F out here. It’s...
Wheeee
Well, we’re still slow at work. But, we’re starting to get more in from the factory, so that’s a plus. Over the weekend, I did have a couple dreams about BL, but they were oddly bland. Lots of ve...
Getting back on track..
Well, with the yard work, at least. I spent the majority of my waking hours of my 3-day weekend on yard work. I have a bad habit of not doing crap in the yard over the winter, then when the weat...
We don't have room!
I would have typed some of this yesterday, but my cable was out when I got home yesterday, and I ended up having to have a technician out to fix it. I’ll get to this. Tuesday didn’t go too bad, b...
Take it all with a grain of salt
lime, and tequila. That song by Ryan Griffin. I’m not a fan of most new music, but I was in my truck when this came on, and the chord progression caught my ear, so I hit the info button to see th...
Genius...
I’m just full of it since my last entry. Lemme go back to last week. Wednesday last, I had to go get a commercial door (12’W x 14’H) down and put back together, so I was using my 48” off road jac...
Break the wheel....
I got on here to write, and ended up reading back. Whoops. It’s been yet another Monday. Had to go into King county again. Blegh. It used to be exciting to go into the larger cities, but now it’s...
Another Week Done
I probably say that too much. Finally have one customer completely finished… after the 3rd set of sections. First two had the same issue, I could see daylight through all section gaps in the door...
General stuff, and me being a prick.
This week wasn’t too bad, actually. Got to work an install with one of the good co-workers, and got finished a few hours ahead of the time we’d been given, despite the garage we were working in b...
How Bizzare...
Fair warning, I’m.getting ready for bed, and have already taken my pills. So, if this becomes unintelligible.... Sorry. I have certain things I’m kinda set on about work. I always wear safety boo...
Snowy BS.
So I’ve not done much over the weekend. It was entirely too cold for me. It started snowing on Friday night, and didn’t stop until late last night. I used to like the snow, but I’m at the point t...
Resuming "Normalcy"
Got my van back just after 4pm yesterday. It’s so nice to have my normal vehicle back, even if the driver’s seat does lean me toward the door. The transmission has been completely replaced and dr...
Geared up...
So I talked to the owner’s son about my van today. Apparently, whatever caused my transmission to slip was irreparable. I didn’t get to ask about it until the end of the day, so I don’t know the ...
Ouy.
So the van is back into the mechanic again. I’ve needed to get the brakes done, and then Wednesday, the transmission started slipping and kicked on the check engine light. The first time it slipp...
17-Jan-21
I don’t feel like trying to come up with a witty title today. This week went fairly smoothly, but I was very busy. Not complaining, I’m glad to be busy. It keeps my mind from wandering down avenu...
Monday Doneday.
It wasn’t that bad. The weather still sucks. Welcome to Washington. Pfft. I had a new motor install out in the sticks, which wasn’t too bad, until R tried to call me about an emergency, and I had...
Didn't want to know that.
I had a fairly productive day, although I wish I’d not had to go down to Seattle. One of the two Seattle calls was actually in down town. Both were an issue with the stupid safety eyes. One was i...
Christmas '20
It’s gone by like the vast majority of Christmas days since I’ve been in Seattle. I’ve been locked in the house, ignoring social media, instant messages, text messages (except the one from my nei...
Fast Friday...
It certainly wasn’t, but this entry will be, as I can’t focus well on anything right now. BL’s son turns 13 today, and the way she worded her post made me laugh. She said as of today she’s a teen...
Finishing up the week, and other nonsense.
It wasn’t too horrible. Although Friday kinda sucked. It’s my own fault tho. I ran out of my meds, and knew that, ordered them, but never got around to picking them up. I didn’t realize I’d forgo...
Ugh.
Well, I went to bed on time, but something woke me up around 4:00, and I couldn’t get back to sleep. Mind was quiet, heart was calm, breathing slow, but just stayed awake. I lay there till 6:30 w...
Stalling.
It’s Sunday, and I need to get my ass to the market and restock. I just don’t want to. I’m showered and dressed, but I have no energy to go. That and the cat is asleep with his head against my fo...
Restrictions AGAIN.
Well, it was inevitable. We’re getting spanked by the state because people don’t want to wear their masks, and caused a spike in Covid cases. I know this is mostly due to more and more people get...
Book Description
Just spilling my guts about the less interesting stuff.
