Fight fight fight!

I haven’t found a link for this and I heard it on the news just before I drifted off to sleep for a whole glorious hour but I can give the main details of the story. Alright, never mind I found a link! Woman attacks Chuck E Cheese.

A teenager dressed as Chuck E. Cheese was pelted with pizza and threatened with a beating Sunday by an angry parent who said the restaurant mascot wasn’t paying enough attention to her child.

I am really of the opinion that people need to lighten the hell up, sheesh!

Energy beverages and the havoc they create on the next Maury

June 29, 2004 · Posted in Blog · Comments Off

A quick update on the monster energy drink idea. It worked, sort of. I need to learn to use it in moderation though. I had two of them in an one hour period and I thought I was going to bounce off the walls for the first half of the night. Like a coke head I crashed hard towards the end of the night too. Right around 3 or so I started to wind down and within minutes I was ready to collapse. I thought if I could get the timeing right this would be good as I could go home and go right to sleep, wrong. I was not able to fall asleep when I got home. I’m not sure if it was residual effects from the drink or just me wanting to do something.

One of the guys I work with on this shift is an odd sort. He’s like a 10 year old in an adults body. No I don’t mean he’s slow I mean he is about as mature as a 10 year old and likes to use that same level of humor. I like him.

Becky is concerned about me working these hours and not getting enough sleep. I have to wait and see if there will be any ill effects before I can judge for certain whether there is anything to be concenrned about. I’m not as young as I used to be and need a little more time to get used to it.

The girls are trying my patience today to the max. If they aren’t fighting about something they are in my face telling me what the other one is doing. I have yelled, I have spanked, I have no idea what the hell to do now as they just won’t quit. We have two tv’s downstairs and for some reason they both have to be going constantly from the time we get up till at least when I leave for work. The racket caused by just these two things is enough to drive a sane person over the edge, now imagine what it does to a nut like me.

Time keeps on slippen

June 28, 2004 · Posted in Blog · 3 Comments

Slippen slippen, into the future…

The time to go to work draws ever near and I am growing ever more apprehensive. I just don’t want to go, no you can’t make me, I won’t do it! It’s that whole getting over the hump thing. It starts around midnight or 1 am and just kicks my ever lovin butt. I hit that time and just want to stop and do nothing the rest of the night! I have tried many different solutions and though they come close none of them really help enough to be worth the effort or expense. Tonight I am trying the Monster energy drink, basically it seems to be like two Red Bulls in a can. It doesn’t quite taste as good as Red Bull though.

Time for supper so I will catch you later!

Bye bye weekend

June 28, 2004 · Posted in Blog · 1 Comment

So long to another weekend and hello to the work week. My work week officially started at 9:00pm sunday night, I do not like this. This is like cutting my weekend in half right there. Then when I get there I realize it is myself and one other person till around 11:00 so I didn’t have a lot to do, boring.

I want to thank my wife again for being so wonderful and helpful while I get used to this horrid shift. Hopefully I will start to resemble a human again here soon.

I promise to start writing things down again to post very soon too, I have been a bad boy and haven’t even jotted down notes of ideas and have let myself lapse into a blogging coma. I soon will reemerge like a phoenix from the ashes, okay maybe not quite that dramatic but you get the idea!

I go sleepy bye now, night night.

Here there be children

June 26, 2004 · Posted in Life · 1 Comment

Someone please explain to me why siblings feel obligated to fight about everything? I’m sure it has to be something that is built into the human gene pool but why? The four year old and the eight year old cannot be in the same room for more than three seconds and they are fighting about something, that is not an exaggeration. They can be absent from each other for several weeks at a time but as soon as they see each other the need to argue kicks in, unbelievable.

I really wish there was an offline blogging tool for wordpress, that is the one thing I miss about mt was using sharpmt to compose my posts beforehand. They have some that partially work but none of them work completely. w.bloggar works till you try and select a catagory then it poops on you. Zempt will work if you don’t mind publishing the post twice to get it to show up once. If I could figure out how to get sharpmt to work with wordpress I would be ecstatic!
