One more day and I’m off to Hawaii. It’s been trying and I’m still struggling to stay awake and keep it together. There’s just soo much still left to do but I think I’m going to make it just fine. I’m not going to go in to work at all tomorrow so we’ll be able […]
I’ve got a jam-packed week up until my flight to Hawaii. Don’t expect I’ll be sleeping anytime soon. Got too much to get done. I don’t want to take another day off work but it may come down to that. It looks like I may be saying “no” to some side work unless they’re willing […]
I’m starting to feel much better about my health. Just getting a decent night’s sleep I think has done wonders for me -and having several people breathing down my neck helps too. My mood has changed dramatically and I’m much happier now. It just feels soooooo good to be energitic and be able to breathe. […]
Well another weekend has gone by without any hope of catching up on my sleep. I am realizing that I just don’t know how to say “no” anymore. I agree to just about anything people want from me and I don’t relize how it’s hurting my health and my family. I think that my wife […]
I’ve got to get out of this job and this commute. I family is suffering, my health is weakening, and my life is ending. I’m slowly changing my attitude on how important it is to get paid this much. The only problem is that with our re-fi, we now pay $950/mo where we were paying […]
In my semi-aware state of consciousness due to a long day of commuting on the train and bus, no sleep the night before, and the stady life-draining work that is civil engineering, I am moved to make an additional entry… As I was on the bus this morning and I saw at least two girls […]
Not one wink last night. Tried to sleep for sure. Went home at a decent hour and laid there for a while trying. It’s like I just started “buzzing” the moment I hit the pillow. So I got up and took some prescription meds (now that I have ’em). Still nothing. What’s worse is that […]
That what it feels like today. At least I’m doing a lot better healthwise. Last night I blew some of the most disgusting junk out of my nose. I slept for the first time in days breathing out of my nose. It was just incredible! I may not even need those prescriptions after all. …I […]
Still being tortured with this stupid sinus illness. I haven’t been able to get my prescriptions yet thanx to being new on my healthcare plan. Looks like I’ll be waiting until tonight to get them. Lucky for me there is a 24hr pharmacy in town. Head is just pounding from sinus pain and I have […]
Last night my right ear started hurting something terrible. It was already itching on Saturday but come Sunday afternoon, the pain became just unbearable. There was little I could do about it considering I wouldn’t be home until late that night so I just had to grin and bear it. I think the pain came […]
I’ve been sick for the past nearly 4 days and I’m just now starting to come out of the fog. It seems that a co-worker (whom shall remain nameless) came to work sick and managed to get me and one other out for the count. It looks like I was the worst since I managed […]
Well it looks like I can type a little faster than I thought. I managed to find the website http://www.learn2type.com and did an online typing test. I was averaging around 45 WPM which is about 10 faster than the last time I checked. That’s encouraging. It means that my “craft” is getting better. Now I […]
Man do I need to stop working down below. I’m not getting anything done at home. The house is still a mess, paperwork is piling up, and I’m still not getting much sleep. I’m slowly thinking that the money isn’t worth it anymore. I’ve got at least 3-5 projects just sitting on the shelf at […]
I’ve been hearing a lot of talk over what seems to be a silly book to me. Maybe it’s because I don’t think the male mind is as complicated as people make it out to be. Here’s the book: and here’s the link: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/068987474X/103-2913817-1299004 I guess the writers came from the “Sex in the City” […]
I was listening to some old Men Without Hats music this morning and one of the songs just hit me hard. I can’t say it brought back memories as much as it brought back old feelings -not necessarily emotions of some old relationship or anything. Just the feeling of being back in time to when […]
Not that it was a totally horrible time -but pretty close! I was definitely due for a long weekend of catching up on my sleep. Getting up earlier than I normally do during the week so we can drive down to Anaheim, to walk around all day and try and see stuff…hmmm. Not fun for […]
Actually I don’t know why I’m even a little excited. I’m tired. I’m behind on the work I need to get done at home, and I’ve been sick. I’d MUCH rather stay home and sleep in than have to get up stupid-early, drive for a few hours, and then walk around for the rest of […]
I guess I’m easily amused but man do I love this new keyboard! –And DUDE! It’s a Dell! I’ve been using the same old Micron keyboard for years (and probably should have cleaned it a couple of times). I’d have replaced it a long time ago but I just never found another that was a […]
I barely get any decent sleep these days and now I’m pretty sick thanks to bronchitis and I STILL chose not to go to bed at a decent time -even when I can! What in the world is wrong with me. I got home tonight around 8pm and still didn’t go to bed until 1am!!! […]
Well if yesterday night wasn’t enough, now my entire body aches from all that coughing and I can barely breathe without hurting somewhere. I sure can’t take deep breaths and I’m deathly afraid of sneezing now. I’m not sure if this is a result of an accumulation of sleep depravation or just my general lack […]
Last night was just terrible. What is it about Sunday nights? Is it that my body knows that I’m going to have to get up early and go to work the next day? Is my body “rejecting” the commute and the work? Should I listen or beat it and make my body my slave? Last […]
Just got a few eBay items and I can’t to get them! Got a new keyboard (with a volume knob on it). I might finally replace my VERY old keyboard that I’ve used for years. I don’t know if I’ll like the feel of the keys but that will have to be something I see […]
Late to work again. Well maybe I shouldn’t rely on just 2-3 hours sleep. I felt just dizzy with tiredness last night and I still tried to get a client’s laptop working. Found some awesome sinus stuff thanx to Zoila. Vic’s nasal inhaler for sinisitus and allergy relief. Worked incredibly last night! Guess I’ve got […]
Well I thought it would be funny. I guess a lot of things sound “just dandy” in my head but when they come out of my mouth (or my keyboard) it isn’t that well received! Sorry ’bout that [you know who you are]. I suppose that’s why I’m not a career comedian –although I’m probably […]
Another night with about 1-2 hours of sleep thanks to my sinuses. Last night was about the same. I swear I’m going to get business cards printed with “Sleep Depravation Institute” on them! The AC is sure nice though. At least I know that my problem isn’t due to the mulberry tree outside anymore. My […]
