Satisfyingly Saturday

You know what I've done today... Next to nuthin'. It's great. I realized earlier that in four days I'll begin another three days off. That's pretty sweet if you ask me. Used to be I'd count down the weeks until I could get three days off. Now I just gotta put in 40 hours to get three days off. Awesome.

I'm anxious to see how this week goes. I'm really hoping the big boss comes in for my final ride along on Monday and that he thinks I do a swell job, congratulates me on a job well done and lets me fly the nest and do this job on my own. Oooh please ooh please!

Aside, I'm just enjoying my days off. I've been quite lazy so far on the days I've had off. I figure that will wear off in a couple more rounds and then I'll find that I want to do more than loaf around for three days. Maybe. It is coming up on winter and I'll likely be more inclined to hibernate a little more.

But then again, one can hibernate and still be productive. I'm excited to have so much more time on my hands which I can fill with things like reading and writing and, no not arithmetic, ....creativity. Hooray!

Right now, back to vegetating.

Sometimes when I am out on the road all I do is long for a day to be home and just veg. It is scary to think sometimes that 4 days off means being gone a whole month!!

I am so happy that you are enjoying this extra time and the new job. I hope all goes well and you get to fly the nest, I am sure you will! Let us know!

Digital Camera Help...

I recently bought a Kodak EasyShare M863 camera at Circuit City. I am not thrilled with the quality of pictures and some of the camera's functions. Mind you, I've only taken about 50 pictures so far, but when I uploaded them to my laptop and viewed them on the screen, they just looked horrible. My old camera was a Sony Cybershot DSC-S600. It took GREAT pictures but it had a lot of mechanical issues. I'd sent it back to the factory three times and it could really be worked on agian, but alas, my warranty is kaputz. So I've snapped off my usual fare of en route, on the road pictures and all of them suck. I've tried about 5 of the major "settings" and it doesn't seem to matter what I do, but they all turn out grainy and "foggy" and just crummy. For the money I paid for this camera it should take better quality pictures. Of course, today I reviewed the new camera online via various sites and it seems that the "crummy picture syndrome...

Open Forum

I have been thinking about opening myself up for questions and inquiry on both a personal and professional level recently. Today I decided I'd go for it. I am opening the floor to you, my readers, to ask me anything. Now, please understand that I have the right to refuse to answer any question I do no feel will be productive or at least entertaining. I am hoping for some really interesting questions, so don't disappoint me! I also would appreciate keeping things G or at least PG, in case there are young impressionable's reading this blog. I am anxious to see what you want to know about me and my life on the road. As questions come in and I have time to answer them, I will post them as individual blogs. So stay tuned... this should get interesting!

Mmm...Jello

I just finished a sugar free Cherry Gel snack ( I can't call it Jell-O since it's officially a generic brand that I bought). It was yummy. Not nearly as yummy as the foods I spoiled myself with the last few days. Night one, sushi. It was damn good sushi shared with good company, whom I know let me off really cheap on my cost of the meal. It was fantastic and I was surprised at how well sushi went with light beer. Go figure. Night two, Mongolian. O M G I could eat Mongolian every freaking day for the rest of my life and never tire. It's the bestest. Primarily because you make it how you want it. If you've never been to a Mongolian BBQ restaurant then you're truly missing out. In a traditional Mongolian BBQ you approach a long bar that is filled with chilled or frozen meats, veggies, and other nummy-nums that you place into a bowl (or two). As much or as little as you like! Then you approach a second long bar that houses large containers of just about every ...
