the weekend is a wrap, the after the next 15 hours, that will tell me if I survived it. Then I got Lodge Thursday night, Uggh. Thing is I don’t want to make it a habit of working days with Rob. He’s just going to be waiting around for me this afternoon to give me shit for missing Saturday. So what’s more important to me getting shit from my wife and have her mad at me for a few days or get shit from Rob the boss? No doubt I’ll go in and Rob will squawk and look at me funny and I’ll just go back to work. I’ve done my 19.5 hours last week even before Saturday. I shouldn‘t be too worried. I reminded Moe Friday night I wouldn‘t be in Saturday, so I should be in the clear. “This isn’t the 1990’s Rob where jobs were hard and scarce to come by.” We’ve got a worker shortage here in Alberta. Ah, Rob’s ok he’s to people to answer to as well.

Ok so I didn’t get any writing done this weekend what with Anne’s birthday dinner in there and a couple of games. I’m rereading what I’ve gone over with from before to get a handle on everything and to frame the concept in my head. I still have my May 30th deadline.

On tap for tonight pending the job and crap, it’s heading in there for my 5pm shift go through the ringer and work to get the hell out of there for tonight. Moe always makes things fun and interesting and there’s Raw on and after that it’s back to H work. It's not a hard job to do being a tap shooter. It's just all the other crap, dwindling lists, disclaimers, pause times now, that type of thing. Hopefully I can begin writing tomorrow or Wednesday at the latest.

Ok some 10 hours later in between the above paragraph: I was in bed shortly after 3am listening to the other news on Coast and passed out. I woke up about 5:30am did the cbi thing and went to read more from NTR. I began the book last Sunday and I’m halfway through it now. I hope it’s not a “Oh it’s all part of a simulation to get you back into the fold” type thing. This is a really good story well constructed and I hope it’s rewards for completing it are as good as going through it. I went back to bed after reading up to chapter 13 and slept well from there up until just a little past noon.

Over the past year Anne has got me taking a Flax oil clear gel pill and a over 50+ multi vitamin pill. Lately she’s been giving me Primrose as well. I don’t mind taking these things but they are becoming a bit of challenge for me to swallow. You got to fit them in lengthwise. Three pills in one session can be a bit to much but I take them on a daily basis.

Other stuff: The Canadian Space Agency is making such a big deal over this extension part of this robot arm called Dexter. It means less space walks for the crew of the ISS because Dexter is an attachment onto the "Canada Arm" that can cover more exterior areas of the station for outside repairs. It’s a good idea but still low tech.

Yesterday I installed the "New" Analytics code from Google just to get a second opinion on my stats because when I changed the theme over to what we have now, it lost the GL original onboard web stats counter. I also changed my website login password and the contact me email hence that was an old contact. It’s now Jim9Shannon@ gmail.com. Of course no gap between the @ and g. Apparently it takes Google 24 -48 hours before the code goes live and I can get reports. We'll see.

At the moment I’m having a coffee before I have to leave for work and I’ll post this and get back to H.

Anyway, fellow Blogers and readers, that’s all for now .
