Random dumb thoughts
This page is to put those little weirdnesses of life that don't really fit anywhere else, or aren't worth a page of their own

T-5 and counting
I'm in the home stretch. There will actually be some things that I will miss about this place. The first is absolutely no responsibility for anything related to me personally. Bills, Christmas shopping, cleaning, anything other than rudimentary hygiene, keeping up with the mail, keeping up with the problems at home -- nothing. It's a total bubble here. The only responsibility is getting up, going to work, and going back to the shared trailer. Well, not getting blown up is another, but that's a bennie, I guess. It's been a really odd version of summer camp from hell. I used to like summer camp, but that's all gone.
Real life is starting to creep in -- I've called and made an appointment with my hairdresser for next weekend. "What's your phone number?", the lady who made the appointment asked. I had no idea, I really had to think about it. I came up with an idea for a Christmas present for my father, now all you all have to do is think good thoughts and will those people to get a DVD player. They're still wavering. I'd get them one, but you just don't get my mother a piece of electronic equipment she's not sure about and not sure about where it goes. My home office is starting to send me notes about end-of-year reports and plans for next year, holiday parties and loads of really, really, really useless administrivia.
Oh well, looking forward to that night in the five-star-hotel in Missouri on the way out.
