In 13 hours I will know the results. In 13 hours the results of the job “interview” will be available for all to see. In 13 hours I might be happy or I might be waiting until next year so that I can try again. I’m waiting on promotion results to arrive and [...] There was a point in time where I would spend hours looking for something that interested me. I would spend days on the internet trying to stay entertained and I would share much of what I found here, at this blog. Lately, however, I’ve found that life outside the internet is far more fulfilling [...] Holy f’ing hell. I care deeply about my work quality and what I do. I have been known to rush through a job to try and get everything done. Once in a while I make a mistake that can be easily fixed – a typo, a count error etc. I normally catch these mistakes [...] Life often imitates art – my has been imitating the movie Christmas Vacation. For the past few days I’ve been calling Jessica Ellen while she has been calling me Clark a few times as we’ve transformed our abode into highly decorated Christmas themed wonderland. The fun started Saturday with the lights on the house. Armed with a staple gun, some gumption, and a ladder I started on my task. We only had a few sets of lights and planned on installing twinkling icicle lights around the perimeter of the roof. I had three strands installed when I had an epiphany. I needed to check the lights.  Most of the lights didn’t twinkle and the rest of them didn’t work. To add insult to injury the remainder of the lights that were bought at a different location weren’t compatible without modification because they had a spade plug and wouldn’t plug into the lights that were already on the house. An edict was given to me to swap the lights on the house for the other set. I did as I was told. We surveyed the house after the lights were installed and neither of us were happy outcome. The lights came down and were returned to Wal-Mart. I picked up some standard lights and headed back home to try and finish my job. As I was hanging lights I looked across the street and saw two neighbors climbing across their roofs trying to defy death as they too hung Christmas lights – there are few nice days during December and everybody was trying to take advantage of the decent weather. These past two weeks have been probably the most stressful weeks I’ve ever been through. About a month ago I was notified about an official position in my lab, with my exact job duties. Basically they are getting rid of my intern position and giving the production team another official tech. There was also [...] I’m in the military and I tend to not think about what I give up. I go to the desert. I put myself in harms way. I work in an inherently hazardous job. People would like to kill me for who I am and what I do. I work odd and long hours. I [...] 10 things I would like to say to 10 different people right now: 1. You make work not seem like work. 2. I don’t care what you believe in, we don’t. We are happy with the way we live our lives. 3. I wish that you could see your life through my eyes. [...] Its far too easy to make fun of her. She does all of the work on her own. I cannot, in good conscience, vote for McCain because he put this woman on the ticket. She is an absolute freaking moron. Don’t believe me? Watch her… these are her words… what a f’in joke [...] My opinion hasn’t changed in the past few months. I think Bluecoat is a horribly coded web filter that does a poor job of characterizing content. Much to my surprise, they have tweaked the algorithm and I’ve seen some noticable changes. First off, they no longer categorically block websites that have the word blog [...] Since I was 5 years old, I have been nothing but a student. I have known no other life. Go to school, come home, do your homework, go to bed, and do it all over again the next day. I have known the agony of tests, finals, and pop quizzes. I have thrived [...] |
