well today is just one of those days. i'm the only ET on duty and everything here has been fixed which means i ain't got nothing to do for the whole day. i hate just being here doing nothing, i get paid yes, but that's not the point.
being idle gives me too much time to think, and thinking with me is usually not good. other than work stuff i spent my three days off sick. i couldn't keep solid food down so i resorted to a diet of alcoholic fluids. i seem to be better though.
i get payed tomorrow and this paycheck looks to be really good. anyway that's enough for now, got time to kill and maybe a coworker or two. |

well my uncle passed away early yesterday morning. fucked up thing is i felt it happening the night before i just didn't know what the feeling was. he was a good man and wherever he is now may he find the peace in death he never knew in life.
my dad is torn up bad about it, i mean who wouldn't it was his brother. while they're all grieving and going to the funeral i'm stuck in alice working. i can't even be with my family when they need me most, what good am i?
all this just when i was coming out of my depression too. oh well i guess it's another couple of weeks of depression. on a related note i almost killed a guy i work with yesterday just for messing with me on the wrong day.
anyway to whoever cares thanks for listening. later -rob |

well it's just one of those days where it just don't pay to get up in the morning. i've realized recentely that i've been drinking entirely too much and i don't even know why no more. i can feel myself getting depressed whenever i go home after work.
i guess that's the reason i drink. since i feel the depression setting in i just want to fall headfirst into it as quickly as possible to come out just as soon.
on another note i found out that my family might be getting smaller in the near future. my uncle is in the hospital with God only knows what. the doctors have yet to figure out what's wrong with him, all they know is he's been sick for a couple of weeks now and he ain't getting better.
don't life just suck sometimes? |

do you know what it's like to get so drunk one night that you wake up the next morning drunk still?
so you do, huh? well now do you know what it's like to wake up drunk and have to go to work? that's what happened to me this morning. i drank entirely too much last night in a short amount of time and i got pretty drunk to the point i stumbled back to my house. anyway i woke up today at six like usual and i still felt drunk, took a cold shower even though it was cold outside, still drunk. got to work and got some coffee drank that and surprise surprise i still felt drunk. i've been working all morning like that, fortunately it's starting to pass already.
i've been calibrating things all morning and building cables, it hasn't been a good day to be how i am. anyway i gotta go back to my mind numbing labor. |

To anyone that cares I'm still alive. I made it back from Oaklahoma just fine. I took four days off of work to recover from my trip but that was just fine. I'm back to my work and back to my boring days of doing nothing, sometimes, for a living. If what I was told is correct I will be getting sent out on jobs starting monday and be going out for a whole month.
My boss seems to think that's a punishment for me taking four days off, but hell if I had things my way I'd go out everyday. After all I live alone, I got nothing to go home to, so I might as well stay on the road and work as much as I can.
Anyway it's back to work for me. |

why is it always cheaper to be a dick than to do the right thing? this past weekend we found some puppies here in the shop, two females, both adorable. anyway the cheap way to do things woulda been to just leave them there, note that is also the dick way. the good way of doing it was to take them down to the valley with me and try and find them a good home.
well i did find both good homes, my parents took one and my brother took the other. they will be well taken care of from now on.
on other news i'll be going to oklahoma next week. i take off on monday and come back at the end of the month. you gotta love working for a company that sends you aways just for training purposes. oh and the whole time i'm there i'll still be getting payed, though it'll only be 40 hours a week plus a 25 dollar per diem for every day i'm out. the per diem alone is 250 bucks.
anyway it's back to work for me, after all i gotta make a living somehow. |

welcome to the wonderful world of suckiness. today just feels like that, from waking up late to coming in to work and having to soder the extension cord on a grinder that someone broke.
to top it off i didn't sleep well last night. strange dreams kept coming to me and disappearing without leaving a trace for me to remember.
well i guess i just gotta get even more intoxicated tonight to not give a damn about those dreams. |

anyway my paycheck for this term arrived and it was better than i hoped. i'm glad i moved, though i left everything i cared about behind.
anyway gotta go back to work. |

another productive day at work. i get to change CB antenna's today. it's lots of fun specially when you come close to busting your ass by falling of the goddamn cabover trucks.
anyway i guess i should get back to work and sweat some more, after all that's what i get payed the big bucks to do. |

so i turn 21 today, no big deal. all it means is i can do things legally now that i've been doing anyway since i was sixteen. the day already started out bad and as tradition goes it will get worse before it gets better. oh well guess i just gotta learn to deal with it.
tonight i'm picking up some booze on the way home from work and getting drunk once i get there. you gotta love it when you gotta celebrate things alone. anyway back to work. |

well it's another boring day at work with nothing to do. i like today though, cause we're on the clock and not doing much. at the same time thought it's a waste of my time cause i ain't gonna reach forty hours for the week and i get payed for forty regardless.
anyway back to doing nothing and getting payed for it. |

well another boring day at work. i'm getting payed to sit on my ass today and work on standards on the computer. only bad part is that the standards suck. it's a bunch of safety crap that for the most part is common sense and the other part i don't need to know most of it.
i guess the H2S training is good but that's about the only meaningful one yet. oh well so long as i keep getting payed while i do this i guess i better do it. |

who woulda thought that this thing is still alive, but i guess despite best efforts it's still alive and kicking. anyway it's been a long time since i came on here and good things and bad things have happened. i'm no longer with the girl that is written about in all the previous posts. i have a new job in south texas making good money. i'm not happy but i'm well on my way to it.
my life started taking a turn for the better when i got dumped and though it hurt at the time i'm still standing. hell i'm bigger and better than i ever was and life is only gonna keep looking up from the looks of it.
anyway i gotta get back to work, to anyone that's ever cared thanks for the encouragement.

Well I just found out that one of my teacher's from HTI passed away two weeks ago. I don't know how to react to this. This man was the only teacher who has truly challenged me in my life. I guess you must say he increased my love for what I studied. He rose above and beyond being a teacher and gave me advise on how to handle several aspects of my life. His greatest advice to me was "Robert always remember that men can only do one thing right at a time. The day you realize that life will seem much easier." That advise is possibly what saved me from suffering a second heart attack. So to Mr. Hogancamp where ever you are I would just like to say thanks for everything. |
