Good morning all.

Home from work. Gearing up to deal with personal crises. Ahhh the joys of marital bliss....

Trying to convince myself to get out of bed, but it's not working... In desperate need of new tires, but don't feel like paying to have new rubber put on the stock 15 inchers, so I'm contemplating other options. I really need coffee.

got all four sneakers installed at Sears for 300 even. I couldn't beat that, so I did it. Amazing how much cheap new tires are compared to the crap I had on there before...

I've got you beat... Not for the day, but, for the weekend, extended:

One of my guys on the security contract had his pops up and pass, so...

I pulled his Friday:
Midnight-'til-morning, THEN:
Went to my day-job, straight from there... THEN:

Home for a short (2-hour) nap, before I had to get back up, get dressed, and go in, to cover a Saturday Midnight-'til-morning, THEN:
ended up not getting out of there until 1400, trying to fix the schedule/timesheet, THEN:
Running around on Saturday, helping various folks with their weekend problems, THEN:

Home for a short (2-hour) nap, before I had to get back up, get dressed, and go in, to cover a Sunday Midnight-'til-morning, THEN:
Left there to go in to my day-job for 6-hours to try to catch up on the documentation for our upcoming (in 2-weeks) network audit, THEN:
Home for a stint of goofing off on the interwebz (bragging in the Sunday Morning Thread), then prolly a short (2-hour) nap, before I'll have to get back up, get dressed, and go in, to cover the guy whose pops died Monday's midnight-til-morning, THEN:
Off to my day job, for a (prolly) 10-hour day (still getting caught up), THEN:
Off to my evening volunteer mentoring at one of the local Middle Schools, which will be done around 8-ish...

I haven't RILLY slept since I woke up on Thursday @ 0430. I may have to drive my car through a mall, in order to de-stress from all of this (did I mention the upcoming network audit; that will determine not only if I get a pay-raise, when the contract gets renewed; but, also if I will still have a day-job at the end of the audit?)

Prolly go back to drinking, after 29 years of sobriety

Jazz - Go home now! You're too old for that kinda stuff. We've established that 8 PM is your bed time. And we're buying you a pet cat.

We'll get him a gift card to JC Penney. If he goes on a Tuesday, he'll get an extra 20% discount off for senior discount.

Do you prefer a wheel chair or a walker, Jazz?
