Dang Good!

Well the only machine that I wasn't so sure I could run here in the plant, I'm running it today. Since that is the only machine that we have parts that need to be run, I'm learning it. Plus the guy that usually runs it is out with kidney stones and they needed some one to run it. D (the guy who's training me) is surprised at me. I did the whole set-up this morning with almost no help from him and he only showed me once yesterday. He thinks I’m pretty sharp.

Nuthing much:

Just checking in with y'all. M was down this week with a bad head cold and she stayed home from work on Wednesday. She's feeling better but not 100% today.

I've spent the last week here at work bouncing from one machine to another in an as-needed basis. Next week is looking to be about the same. Oh well. Just as long as I get to keep busy.

Not too much else to say. Oh, that kitten that I was looking for last weekend has disappeared. I never did catch up with it, and I haven't heard or seen it since. I really hope someone found it and gave it a good home.

The house is a mess because I've been doing the cooking (and not much cleaning) with M being sick and since this weekend is looking to be crappy weather that will be my project for the next few days.

Bowling went horribly wrong last night and I bowled like shit. I won’t even tell you my scores, that’s how bad it was.

M stayed home last night from bowling ‘cause she wasn’t feeling the best. She got home from work early and so did I, so I invited her to take a nap with me before bowling. I managed to get up and hop in the shower and she stayed in bed. She was pretty drained and had no energy so I told her to stay home and get some sleep.

But after bowling a bunch of us went out singing Karaoke and I got into a competition that they were having last night. I know this was more of a popularity contest than anything else because this girl who won it sang a boring, but fairly good, song and I tore it up singing James Brown “I Got You (I Feel Good!) and came in second place. Every one I talked too after the contest said they thought I had won it, hands down, but since the “crowd” cheered for her more than me she won it. Oh well. I had fun though! And that’s what’s important! Right? Right.

I’m Alive… So Far…
