splash
We finished up a job today for a lady who needed 11 pine trees taken down. I got paid $100 for 2 days of ground work. I also decided to drink about 3-4 mouth fulls of well water that hadnt been used and was untested after 10 years. So if I get sick and die, then thats why. (Yea, dumb me. It was hot out and I didnt have any other water near by so I ( Read more... ) -
The reaper
I just got back from see'ing The Reaper, with my stepsister. The movie was decent and it gave me a chance to get out the house. I also finally got my glasses in so we picked them up too. I was suppost to be wearing glasses alrdy but I havent since about 2005. The result of that was a stigmatism and severe dbl vision now. I mainly need them for when ( Read more... ) -

Timber
So, today we had to finish up cutting down a huge pin oak tree. The base was about 7-8 ft around. Pretty heavy logs too. We got most loaded up on the trailer but have to go back tomorrow to get more. Perhaps on the next job or tomorrow, i’ll take my digi cam and take a few pics of my new enviorment and job. Hopefully it won’t be so cold tomorrow ( Read more... ) -
back
Wow, its been a crazy week or two. I started helping my dad take down trees and its tough & dangerous work. Not so dangerous if the climbers (the one who cutsmost), isnt fucked up on some kinda pills and actually listens to the groundman (boss), who calls the shots. Bad thing is most climbers think they know wtf theyre doing and dont wanna listen. ( Read more... ) -
Configure
So, I’ve been getting the basics down of linux command prompt and I compiled a few programs and games so far. Its pretty interesting and it’s nice to learn something new. The distro of linux I’m learning on is Debian. I had to get a new shell account because the host of the old one I had kept going down and was pretty unreliab. I also spent a few ( Read more... ) -
Macro 4tw
Yea, I know I haven’t updated in a few days so forgive me. I haven’t been doing anything worth mentioning except still slowly learning perl and building scripts to cheat in the current online game i’m playing. The latter has really been going well. Current things that I can macro so far ( Read more... ) -
Jury duty = pwned & mmorpg update
I got up today and got drew to drive me to covington for the 8:30am appointment I had there as a petit juror. The drive is 60 miles total there & back. I get in, sit around with other jurors (about 150 showed up or so), and finally at a quarter to elevn the jury commisoner starts talking for a few minutes, telling us what we can expect and shit ( Read more... ) -
Monday
So, todays monday and usually I dislike mondays but today doesn’t seem so bad. A few days from now I get to go with Drew to some real estate and successions lawyer to handle selling his house. See, my setpfather married my mother when my brother and I was real young and in 94 they bought the house he’s trying to sell now ( Read more... )
