Ok, so don't read anything into the post title, it's just the song playing right now. Of course, I *am* crazy, so I guess it fits, right?
In the case that you haven't noticed, I changed up the background to something that aids in readability. So basically I did it to make it easier for me to read, since I don't think anyone else does. And thats ok.
Anyhow, I'm ready to go back to work now. I am thankful that I haven't been called back yet, as that allowed me to spend time with my youngest son on his birthday, enabled my being able to re-connect with my friend Audrey a couple days later, and also to spend Easter with my family. Not to mention I have loved being able to drive my car more, even though gas is starting to get ridiculous again.
Speaking of, I really need to get paid again soon so I can get the front end pieces all tightened back up on the Audi. And tires. But suspension first.

I haven't gotten too far into teaching myself guitar, except the learning that my fingers are still stupid and not flexible enough to go where they need to. It's true, I will never be an Oz Fox or an Eddie Van Halen. Oh well.

Take care, whoever may read this.
Till the next...

So you might notice I changed some text colors. I was having a sort of re-organizing session on the computer tonight, better organizing my photos, music, and other files when I ran across the couple pictures I have of my old Mustang. It was a little brighter orange than the text is. I liked that color on that car, and it stands out against the black background.

Also, I was reading through my old posts again the other night. Wow. Four and a half years, you think I'd have had something interesting to write up here. But nope, just a bunch of Geek ramblings. It got a little better in later years, but still.

Twas Easter today. Spent most of Saturday and Sunday at my parents place with the kids in tow.
Still no word on when I go back out on the road for work. I wanna go back soon, just not this week. Spending as much by yourself as I do when Im "home", you tend to think to much. Some thoughts I have quite often, some I haven't had in years. Some make me happy, some almost to tears. Some thoughts I never want to think again, and yet others I wish were real...

I leave you with my old car...


Take care my friends.

Hey all (all? all who?) Hope everyone had a fun and *safe* St. Patrick's day on Monday and got their fill on whatever green substances they consumed. I myself had a Shamrock shake from McD's. Not my fav, but it's kind of a tradition. Kind of. Oh, and Mt. Dew is green too.
Despite being a gloomy, gray, rainy day today, I actually had a good day. I recently reconnected with a grade school friend who now lives in Portland, OR. Yes, grade school, as in someone I had not seen in 18 years. Well, she is in town on business and to see her parents. We met up for lunch at Ming Ten, a Chinese buffet and Sushi bar. We sat and talked about life and the "old days". It was nice to be able to actually sit down and talk to someone who really 'gets' where you've been in your life because they've been there too.

And yes, I'm rambling, so I'll stop now.
Take care...

Yeah, I *love* me some ice these days. Brushing off the car this morning I took a slide on the ice rink / parking lot. I just about had it saved, but not quite. Now my side and most especially, my right elbow hurt. I distinctly remember that elbow having more of a point to it than it does now. I won't kid you, it seriously hurts.
Anyhow...
Not much has been up otherwise. I had thought that when I went back to work the last time, it would be for a few weeks at least. Well, it seems as if that wasn't quite to be. Did Pasadena, TX, and now I am back home. Well, since last Friday. I still expect, and hope, to do the Vegas, Houston, and yes even the LA build. Gets me out of the house, see. Plus working = income, and that helps.

One of these days I hope to have internet at my place of residence too, so I don't have to keep sitting in parking lots, "borrowing" someones Wifi.

But I think for now that will be all.
