What a slacker I am. I don’t think I’ve gone this long without posting. Just has been a busy month. Work has gotten really busy over the past month or so. We have lost a few employees over the past few weeks which doesn’t help. I’m sure it’s the reason for what seems to be a higher call volume. Over the past month, I got my tax return along with my bonus from work. I ended up getting a few play toys. Upgraded some of my computer stuff at home such as my wireless router, along with my desktop computer. I upgraded the cpu from a AMD 6000 to the AMD 630 quad core. Got a GT220 video card also. Long story short, I needed a new motherboard. So basically my old AMD 6000 system is in the living room connected to the TV. I also purchased a Springfield XD subcompact 9mm. Very happy with the gun, and the computer purchased. Also ended up dumping about 600 big ones into my car. Finally also got some new pants. I was hoping to have the money for a vacation, but I didn’t.

Got this in my email this morning, and thought it was pretty funny.

At the end of the tax year, the IRS office sent an inspector to
audit the books of a local hospital. While the IRS agent was checking
the books he turned to the CFO of the hospital and said, “I notice you
buy a lot of bandages. What do you do with the end of the roll when
there’s too little left to be of any use?”

“Good question,”
noted the CFO. “We save them up and send them back to the bandage
company and every now and then they send us a free box of bandages.”

“Oh,”
replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual question
had a practical answer. But on he went, in his obnoxious way. “What
about all these plaster purchases? What do you do with what’s left over
after setting a cast on a patient?”

“Ah, yes,” replied the CFO,
realizing that the inspector was trying to trap him with an
unanswerable question. “We save it and send it back to the
manufacturer, and every now and then they send us a free package of
plaster.”

“I
see,” replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the
know-it-all CFO. “Well,” he went on, “What do you do with all the
leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?”

“Here,
too, we do not waste,” answered the CFO. “What we do is save all the
little foreskins and send them to the IRS Office, and about once a year
they send us a complete dick.”

different day. Same ol excuses.

I won’t get so drunk and make myself look like a fool. I’ll just be the dork in the corner drinking water. ahahaha

Kids weren’t bad this week, but having problems with Glad. Told her on Wednesday of everything I wasn’t happy with. She is at a friends for the weekend to let things settle down. We’ll see what happens. I’ve put 2 years into the relationship, can’t hurt to give it another month or two.

Last night went with my brother to Club Edge. That was fun, and make a drunken fool of myself. I hate when that happens! Maybe I should drink less when out in public. But yeah, had a great time. The hangover, and getting up early for work sucked. Oh well, shit happens.

Had another uneventful week. Donated plasma Tuesday and Thursday. Went to Green Street with Jim last night for some pool. That was fun, and had a good time like always.

Jayden went snowboarding with his school on Thursday. He had a fun time. James has been a handful, and his Math teacher called me on Wednesday.

Me and Glad has been watching Lost over the past few weeks. We finished up Season 1, and started Season 2 this past week. I watched and enjoyed Forever Strong on Wednesday. Wasn’t anything amazing, but I enjoyed it.

I can’t believe it’s already 2010. The years just keep flying by. This fall will make 5 years at work, which just blows my mind. With how crappy everything has gotten here at work over the past year. I still enjoy my job for the most part.

This past Thursday I took the kids on up to Evanston Thursday for NYE with the grandparents. Me and Glad went on over to Bobby’s place. Had a good time over there. It was nice to see old friends, and make new friends.

My car/battery has been acting odd recently over the past few months. Took it to Auto Zone on my way home from work yesterday. They said the battery was dead, so I replaced the battery. Since the battery was less than 2 years old, I got a few replacement. Can’t go wrong there. I think it took care of my problem. I was afraid it was my alternator that was going bad. The voltage would jump over all the place while driving, from 13 volts up to 16 volts.

Don’t really have new plans for the new year. I do want to quit smoking, and try my hardest to get Supervisor here at work. That’s really my only goals. Anyway, back to work I go.

Ah what a crazy week it has been. Didn’t have the kids Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and picked them up from Evanston on Thursday (Christmas). That was a very much needed break from the kids. Glad was an handful and half. I won’t go into details, but yeah. We did watch Extract. It’s the new movie by Mike Judge. I enjoy it for what it was. I did hit the plasma bank this past Tuesday and Thursday.

Christmas eve was a busy day. Woke up early and went to the plasma bank. Then had to drive out to Glad’s work to drop off a form for her doctor. Then went on up to Evanston to grab the kiddies. Went shooting real quick in the Dean. Then drove back to SLC. Packed up the car and went out to my parents house for the evening. Had an awesome dinner of lasagna for dinner. Played a few games, and went to bed early.

Christmas morning woke up early and unwrapped gifts. Then had eggs, ham, and sausage for breakfast. Went home unpacked all of the gifts. Took a nap for a few hours. Me and the kids then went on over to my Grandma’s. I then met up with Megan, and we drove on up to Layton to drop off the kiddies. We then went back home, and went on over to Bens. Was over at Bens till about 12:30ish, then bullshitted till around 3ish or so. Needless to say, I’m very tired from the lack of sleep.

No ideas what I’m doing for New Years Eve. Time will tell.

This past week was a busy week with doctor appointments. Tuesday, James had a dentist appointment. Wednesday was the doc appointment for tonsil removal. Kids get there tonsil ripped out on the 29th. Thursday was an appointment for their meds.

For other highlights I fixed my broken windshield washer fluid issue. The hose broke in half that goes from the reservoir to the nozzle. I fixed it with a .16 cent hose from Lowes. That made me excited.

Thursday night, and Friday was very stressful.

Friday night after work, I picked up Glad from work out in West Valley. Then got her check cashed, and then went to the dollar store. Left work at 6pm, and didn’t get home till after 8. Got the kids ready, and hauled them on up to Evanston for the week. The kids are out of school for the next 2 weeks for the xmas break.

This next week no major plans. Going to my parents xmas eve/xmas morning. Tuesday I plan on donating some plasma. I really need the extra money. Hope to donate some plasma Wednesday and Thrusday also.

Anyway…..Till next time.
