Hey guys, just checking in after a few days off. I'm now a year older (Friday was the big day).
Had to return a gift: funny shirt from Hot Topic that I really liked, but I look too old to be caught dead in it. I fit the part of the creepy old guy in the cool black t-shirts I used to be so fond of. *sigh* I'm getting old.

I like my popcorn plain, always have. Weird, I know.

Long tiem no see round here. I figured you'd went to days and were loyal enough not to violate this thread with a day time post.

Yep, the sun was nice to see. I was actually off, though. I did check in to see what was discussed the previous night, but didn't post. Loyalty. Just 5 more night shifts before I head out...the 24th is my last one.

Actually, no, I forgot to bring a cd. I almost overslept.
Odd like that.....if I dont sleep much, I get thru the night okay. Today I messed around with my truck and then slept around 5 hours. Feel exhausted. Eyes all heavy, feel like I weigh about a ton, nerves all tingly and everything, and kinda some muscle cramps too. Caffine/nicotine seem to be of no help.
Guess I'm better off not sleeping.......unless the not sleeping has caughtup with me.
I get to go home in the morning and help my wife paint.

Glad I'm off tomorow night.

My one client...er.... "consumer" .. .... has been asleep for a while and Ive been kicked back on the couch watching Tigerland. Wierd movie about grunts in AIT before going to "Nam. I'm getting ready to put in "The Passion". So far not sleepy yet and it's 0205. Well, if I doze from about 4-6 I should be wired enuff to go to court with my bro then go home and pass out.

It's probably already been said in here, but I'll check back later... what does everyone else do that keeps you so busy this time of nite? Cept for the pulp mill person, I've missed the rest of what y'all do...and no, I ain't going to go read all umpty-eleven pages just to find out..so fall in now and tell me your dirty little nite time secret... what you gettin paid for?

Hi Guys, I am just kind of out of it. Today is my Sunday. Another weekend gone by with out much to show for it. I did fill up three garbage cans with tree trimmings. I go back to work tomorrow at 4 pm. I try to pace myself so I don't get up too early when I have to go back on the first day. I worked mids and eves for 21 years, then days for 10. Now I am back on evenings but it is not quite what it used to be.
