    Seems I shouldn't have mentioned about staying online as once again I have to log in each time I start my system up again.  Bugger.

    I'm starting to relax a bit and regret not having time off over summer, weather is a bit too changeable this time of year to be out on the water unless you like some thrills and spills. One of the difficulties of contracting is you always come in when stress levels are rising and unless there's a bit of history with the organisation  it can be a nightmarish experience for an outsider  but all feeling perfectly normal to the crew that has been on the cooker for a while :)

    Time off is nice, I kind of remember what that was (lol)! Maybe next Summer you can get out and about..

    Yeah, his place is weird.. my agency keeps telling me they want me to work here long term, bu at the same time I get no resources to do my work.. makes my lie real difficult.  Oh well, have to hang in there until all my medical issues are taken care of!

    pouring rain out, so i didn't stop at starbuck's this morning.

    complaint - asked chicagoscrews.com for a size chart of what they have available, mentioned i was looking in the under 1/4" range.  emailing back and forth all morning about screw sizes, but no size chart seems forthcoming.  is that really an impossible request for a screws company?

    Thinking about Chinese food for lunch, kind of tired of chickien wings all the time.  Otherwie, it's microwve Campbell's chunky soup, which isn't really THAT bad.  I just need something more interesting since the coffee isn't working to maintain my interest in this mess.

    The cloudy, dark weather isn't helping things a lot, either.

    According to my money spreadsheet and the timing of all my medical work, I'm stuck in this job until the end of May. indecision

    Feh.  Maybe pork in garlic sauce...
