like the other day I was home for lunch before work, and dad offers me a shot, and I'm like "Dude, I'm going to work after this!"

Clarence! You're supposed to be gone!

Also--

I got my first verbal threat of being sued at work today! I was talking to my mother about it, and was like "Lol, got your first verbal threat of being sued! Just wait until you move to Omega, I can't tell you how many times I've been sued by Omega clients!" (Omega is the Behavioral Therapy Unit.. basically where the bad eggs go--and by "bad eggs" I work with tickle fight offenders, so a "bad egg" is basically the ones who act out a lot)

You can do it, buddy! Seriously, the only difference between real guests and your coworkers that you have been training with is the smell, HA H AHW! :) You'll be fine!

Today I am going to introduce a friend to the world of High Fidelity. This guy loves music, but has a crappy little sound bar hooked up to his turntable. I am going to loan him a vintage 1985 receiver and some speakers that are even older,
so he can hear what music can sound like when not squeezed through a tiny funnel.

Today I got a wheelchair and was the first day since February I got to go shopping for groceries with my husband. Yes, sice Febuari I have not left home for something else than doctor appointments or hospital visits. I do feel a little more free now.

Freedom is that much more beautiful when you have not had it for a while.

Today I have no idea what I am going to so. Maybe change the oil in my car.... except the local auto parts store does not carry my oil filter.

I may also get the parts I need to build a sit-down video game cabinet.

I should probably do some more work into getting my tax I.D. number and whatnot. What do you think is a good name for a small business?

Nich.. drugs are bad, and turning to cocaine to get your assignments done isn't the right answer... :( :(

Comedy is funny.

Today I am driving 100 miles to examine a diesel mercedes station wagon. If it passes my exam, I will be driving back up there tomorrow to make the purchase. I need a station wagon to haul tables and displays once I get this knife thing going.

Looked at the car. it needs work. Work that I could do, but I don't really have the time. And I have another car that already needs work. Gonna have to say no. Not a sad day, though. Coming to a decision feels good.

It worked like a charm though. It was only a 2-3 page report/reflection and I got it done by 2 in the morning.

Oh and the serving went well. I had it a bit easy because they start you off with one table and they had to leave early. Also it was a training on the job type of experience.

went to the muni with coworkers, they drank beer, I don't drink beer, so I had rum and coke, and probably hit a point where it is questionable for me to drive... whoops, I even passed a cop on the way home, so I guess I was good

Don't mess around with driving while intoxicated. At the MOST I'll have one beer before a drive and I rarely to never to that.

Yeah dude, seriously, don't take that lightly.

Today I am going to the Udvar Hazy center which is part of the Air and Space museum. Kind of excited.

Okay, so that was very overstated, I only drank a few, and then it was awhile until I drove, it was just the first time I had driven home from a bar after drinking any amount whatsoever.

That's the tricky thing. When you are coming off your buzz, you can feel like everything is a-ok when it is not. Not yet, anyway. Basically, I wait at least an hour after my last drink. I am also not a big drinker. But that way my liver and kidneys have time to do their thing and I can be confident that I am not impaired.

Back to happy news: Yesterday went with BoGZ to play pinball and video games. http://www.theyorkshow.com It was a mixed bag, not as many really cool tables there this year. The ones that were there were in very good condition and were a joy to play. As they were nearing closing time, they were giving away some prizes, and BoGZ won a back glass from a pinball called Sorcerer. Pretty cool considering it is his birthday today! :)
