So I’ve had some gentlemen installing new ductwork in my office and the common area outside of my office for over a week now.  They are putting in some new heat units and the like.  With the drop ceiling tiles the sounds just echo around and down into my office, amplified.

So the guy pounding on the brick wall with a hammer right now, I’m not enjoying it.

My neighbor’s radio, yeah I hear it possibly better then he does.

This is pretty much the perfect storm for a constant headache, which is pretty much what they have accomplished.  Oh well, maybe more coffee will help.

What is it about working 16 hours that just hurts into your bones…?

I couldn’t hardly peal myself out of bed this morning.

.

6:30 - pull into work, bearing I replaced a week and a half ago in my Explorer blows out.

6:50 - realize I left my power cable for my laptop at home

7:15 - Dad explains his morning is sucking pretty bad too, we agreed we were not jealous of the other’s situation.

7:45 - I see that what I stayed till 6 last night to do didn’t work.

8:00 - say screw my blood pressure, had a small cup of coffee and a muffin.  Coffee was bueno, the muffin was blue berry and awesome.

9:30 - Di’s phone won’t take calls.

10:00 - I ask Steve if his birthday wish was for Murphy to give me some crap.  He says no, but that he did go to REEEEEEED Robin - hummmmmmmm.

10:05 - I thank God that even though today is kind of in shambles I am still amazingly in a good mood.

Someone from my union just created a dummy account on gmail and sent a pretty honest evaluation of my Union Board to the entire union.  Some of the points good, others perhaps a little silly, some that I disagreed with.  But ultimately it will be for the good, basically it was begging for more transparency from our board, which we do not have for sure.

Its funny, I dislike politics.  But we are all surrounded by politics, to the point of practically swimming in the mediocrity.  Sad but true.  Given the election coming up, the letter from my fellow union member made me think.  They renewed my sickness, my disdain for the puppet masters.

Its a good thing God tells us to respect our leaders, because he knew if he didn’t tell us to there is hardly a chance we would have done it on our own…
