For a Little While in General

I woke up late – I mean really late for me. At some point over night we lost power just long enough to reset all the electronics – including my alarm clock.

I have blackout curtains and blackout blind – fallout from my summer working overnight at Wally World when I turned into a freaking vampire. It is pitch black in my bedroom. The LED in the smoke detector is blinding,

I woke up staring at the alarm clock blinking at me.

Oh. What the fuck.

My watch was in the bathroom, as are my glasses.

1. I was planning to be at work at 0600. So much for that plan.

It is a point of pride in Naval Aviation that we are always where we are supposed to be when we’re supposed to be there.

Command decision and I just clocked in from home and sent the boss a skype message telling her I would be working from home.

I feel like crap and I have my next to last chemo infusion on Friday.

On a positive front – two weeks until I head for Texas – still in the 90s down there. Looking forward to seeing the kid and my grandson, having some BBQ and maybe one of those huge steaks. Schitterbahn looks like you could spend a week there.

On a negative front – a co-worker who sits across from me at work, a little older than me and planning to retire next year broke his neck his weekend.

His fucking neck.

He’s obviously out for the foreseeable future.

Good gawd – work your whole life, just waiting to get to retirement and you get paralyzed at 65. Gawd I would be furious at God.
