I'm tying my laces to go biking again tomorrow morning. 75 mile ride near the headwaters of the mississippi river. should be a good time, 1200 people or so.

I'll be tying my laces a little later when I'm at the gym. Been a long time, really feel like getting a good workout in.

When you get a flat, don't have a spare tube, and have to carry your bike on your back it is.

[On Sunday] I'll be untying my laces, tying the tie on my swimsuit, and heading down to the pool for una cerveza in the sun (don't worry, that tropical storm won't slow me down!).

Aren't you late for work, Geezr?!

Sounds like fun. I rode in the Hotter N Hell 100 in Wichita Falls,TX last month. The 1st 80 miles were fun. The final part made the ride aptly named. No backpacking here in AR yet. Still too hot & humid.

When you don't work the days run together, weekends loose their importance. Except you get to hang out with all your workin' friends.

I have school all weekend. Clinical documentation. Then starts the 155 hours of free work for the school in their clinic. You guys will be seeing alot less of me I think.

I've actually considering going back to school to be an OR tech...

Seriously, I think I would have a very exciting job as an OR tech :)

I've been thinking on continuing education for nursing. The state of Michigan has such a shortage they're paying people's way through nursing school. When I'm finished w/massage therapy school I'll have Anatomy, pathology, pysiology, clinical documentation, medical terminology, etc. And it's actually transferable! We'll see though.

I think you should go for it SC! Hey you could be a tech on one of those operation shows..use the art plus be a tech! I think that would be a hit!

I've got to councel one of my employees that left early Wednesday and didn't tell anyone. I have a luncheon to go to for someone who is retiring that I hardly knew. I have a telecon today at 1 pm to talk about hiring a some new kid fresh out of the USMC. I have to attend my big bosses meeting at 10 am to listen to him slather and drone for an hour about where the company is going. I have a long list of people that I will call AGAIN because they won't return a phone call. I have to stay late today because I have to meet with my second shift crew about some "important" company stuff. And I don't even get paid until next Friday! WAAAAAAA!

I'm working on my Goals and Objectives for last year for my upcomming performance evaluation. I would honestly rather be licking Sarge's scrotum then filling out this stupid useless crap.

Bosses who do that just love to hear the sound of their own voice. If they knew how much damage they were doing to their own image, they'd probably never speak to the employees at all, lol...

On the other hand some days it's soooo slow (like right now) that i'm bored to death...which is why i'm considering the schooling.

I've been the boss at those meetings.

Only with me it was fifteen minutes and more like "This is the direction the company is going and why. If you don't like it then please quit now and save me the hassle of firing you later for being a boat anchor. Any questions?"

Big Boss Meeting
Where I was, it was two hours of unadulterated "See how great I am!"

Very difficult to respect someone who needs that kind of reinforcement.

DOG FOR SALE !!!! Even if you don't own a dog at present, you'll appreciate the efforts of this owner to sell her dog. Read the sales pitch!!!







Dog For Sale

Free to good home.

Excellent guard dog.

Owner cannot afford to feed him anymore, as there are no more thieves, murderers, or molesters left in the neighborhood for him to eat.

Most of them knew him as 'Holy $h!t'
