Kinda Hungry
Face hurts, go figure. Not gonna take my pain meds before I get some food in me. It took me a good bit to get comfy last night but once I did I fell asleep hard and it was great! It’s 9:30 and I...
Sweet Relief
Got the tooth removed. The roots were bigger than the tooth itself, Dr. P and his assistant were impressed. Native American in me so I’m used to it. The Novocain is wearing off and hydrocodone...
9 1/2 Hours
Till my dentist appointment. I managed some sleep late this afternoon. Fell asleep during the last thirty minutes of a four episode storyline on my show. Will have to look it up later. My goal ...
Son Of A Bitch!
Just ate some soup and the heat from it sent pain from that damn tooth up the side of my face. That was not a pleasant experience. I’ve still yet to sleep though I am tired. My face hurts a b...
After Hours...
The vomiting stopped but now I can’t sleep. Back tooth hurts and I can’t seem to get comfortable. Wednesday I see the dentist. Been up watching reruns of Murder She Wrote and Monk. Angela Lans...
Sickness
Shrimp scampi isn’t good coming back up. I’ve been upchucking the last thirty minutes… Currently wrapped in a blanket on the couch with the fan going, the air feels nice.
Biff Tannen Does Comedy
Great. Now my back molar hurts to the touch. Fuck me, right? Anyways, some funny stuff.
Roadkill Cafe
You kill it, we grill it! There is a local magazine called Old Huntsville. They’re filled with stories of North Alabama history. One article in particular stood out to me. It was about growing...
Anecdote
Wore my Misfits shirt the other day. While going to the store for my Mt. Dew Icee fix, a guy with a Bad Brains shirt held the door for me. We both smiled at each other’s shirts, nodded and did ...
Doc In The Box
Pain kept me up most of the night. Called in again. Went to the walk-in clinic for an NSAID shot and ‘script of antibiotics. Hopefully that’ll take the pain away.
Called In
When I woke up this morning the whole right side of my face ached thanks to the cavity. Left a VM with the plant manager, took a handful of IB Proferen and went back to bed. My calf and thigh m...
Late Asshole Entry
When there’s no future how can there be sin?
Tears For The Leaves
I no longer like the park downtown. A friend pointed out there is too much concrete now. My last sojourn there proved her correct. But what I noticed…they removed all the Weeping Willows. See...
Beaten And Bruised
Day shift wasn’t so bad. I think I sweated off ten pounds. Counted SO many parts. For some reason I got to thinking about pizza and how good one would be for lunch. Needless to say I ordered...
Catch Phrase!
Rewatching Free Guy. Charming film. Hangover is mostly gone. Pretty sure I have a cavity. Anything hot (like food) touches the spot and it feels like an ice pick jabbing that spot. If I slee...
That Was Dumb
Yesterday I ached. Badly. As the sun went down and night came upon us I got a freakin’ toothache. Aspirin wasn’t doing anything. I ended up getting booze to quell the pain. It worked but tod...
Tired
Ten days (technically eleven since if now after midnight) sober. I’ve gotten a lot of energy back so I’ve kinda been “working out” at work. Mostly using the iron castings as weights. Few reps ...
Worn Out And Beat
1:13 AM I’m friggin’ tired! Woke up waaay too early this morning and it took an hour to fall back asleep. Kinda set the mood for the rest of the day. Sluggish, foggy minded. Meh, I’ll write ...
Country Cookin'
My boss shot seven squirrels yesterday. His wife baked ‘em with some Creole seasoning. He brought them in a bag and snacked on ‘em like it was game day and they were hot wings. Yes, I tried it....
On The Outside Looking In
Been on an Oingo Boingo kick since Saturday. Good stuff! It’s 11:39 PM and I wanted to document seven days sober before midnight.
Living Cat Bed
Lily has laid on me nearly all day yesterday and part of today. After I got up to pee Smokey has decided it’s his turn to sleep in my lap. Silly kitties.
Early Morning Saturday
The last few days I’ve been getting up early after only a scant few hours of sleep but have trudged on through the day. I got up at 8 AM this morning, my off day, and made the most of it. Treated...
Greasy Breakfast
I went to Krystal’s and got some of their burgers with cheese for breakfast. Yum yum. Work last night wasn’t bad. Finished up the last of the quick order with two hours left on the shift so I chi...
Need A New Couch
Wrapped up in my quilt, watching the original Terminator. I slept late. 5 PM late. I was so worn out last night when I got off work. Lack of sleep (around 48 hours awake), back and arm/shoulde...
Original
“If there is ever one brain I’d like to see load into a computer, it’s mine. I’m no one person. With all that goes on in my head I’ve become a human chameleon. That’s the only way I can descr...
Book Description
I came on my own volition.
I am the man that got away.
Work -
Tonight I clocked in at 4:30 PM and it was suddenly Wednesday when I worked 6:45 AM to 6 PM with only an hour lunch break and on my feet the rest. I was trying to relieve Logan in the back who was frying chicken both for our loose case and boxed hot case so he could go to lunch. Instead I got mixed with a redneck who wanted a Philly steak and cheese. I made his sandwich to order only to be confronted with the elderly gentleman behind him. He, to this shit. o, wanted a Philly. I was annoyed. Angry. Granted chicken side cooking sucks At least you’re away from the customers. I can, “pretend”, like I’m cooking chicken in the back but dick around for ten minutes, which actually rarely happens. You learn to smile and accept this shit. Made him his sandwich, didn’t stop to ask the next customer if he needed help. Instead, went straight to the back and told Logan to take his lunch, I was taking over, box up what just came up out the fryer and we’re good.
It was just one of those days. People wonder why I get stoned before work.
I.
Am.
Robot.
Tell.
Me.
What.
Is.
Next.
I’m versatile.
Put me in any situation and I come victorious.
Even on the bad days.
So when I go the hardcore bitch mode of my assistant manager on Wednesday after my eleventh hour there. I got irate.
I know she does a job for two.
Her boss/my boss sucks ass.
But fuck....I’m part time.
If you want to bitch and yell about the shit that the full timers didn’t do…bitch to them.
DON’T MAKE ME DO THEIR FUCKING SHIT THE LAST HOUR I’M THERE!
I’ve been working for this slave camp for three and a half years.
I lost my insurance last year due to me being stupid and the store manager catching on. Which is actually a big blessing. I haven’t missed a day in a year.
But I’ve been there for every shift.
Sleep, no sleep?
Fuck it.
Show up for work.
The computer takes over on schedule and now I don’t qualify for our good insurance.
I have to take the government stuff?
OK.
I’m a democrat.
Lifelong.
BUT FUCK YOU OBAMA!
Don’t tell me what to do.
I’ll go another year without health insurance.
I want my good Blue Cross Blue Shield Back.
Make my job give me the hours back for insurance.
People close to me say I need to see a therapist.
After A.A. and an almost check in at rehab.
Maybe I do need anti-depressants.
This is a rant with no one I know reading this.
Its liberating.
I welcome ProseBox into my life.
