sleep or chapter 9?

Well. I'm at chapter 9 of 'eclipse' (book 3 in the 'twilight" saga). Once again I face the delima: should I sleep or push through another chapter? I'm very tired but at the same time I'm so curious about what is next. I know if I read any further and if it gets any better I may end up pulling an all nighter. Tomorrow I need to start over recording an album for my friend and fellow songwriter (Terry Floyd) who painted my truck for me as payment. I was nearly finished with the album when I decided to run System mechanic which destroyed my hard drives and divided them into 8 partitions! But I didn't get much sleep last night (2 hours to be exact) which makes me sort of afraid to go to sleep here at the fire station. Imagine waking up to the deafening roar of a cake dish-sized bell only to be given a specific address for God knows what kind of situation. The harder you sleep the more difficult it is to think quickly and safely for the matter. Yawn... let you know tomorrow. Good night humans.

A New Station... A New Beginning

My engineer Stanley and I got moved to a new station. It's number 5. It's not as far from home as my old station. I'm enjoying it so far. The kitchen is very small but it has recently been remodeled. I'm only a few blocks away from my wife's place of employment. It has a nice office area and a huge chalkboard. I even found this nice green Zyrtec mug. Still have the same problem with someone not washing their dishes. Disgusting huh? I love the new truck too. It's a Cadillac compared with engine 6. So I've decided that I love my new workplace.

A Nice Long Walk Walk

Thanksgiving morning I came straight home from work to two happy puppies. I decided I would let Angela sleep in and take the kids for a run on the levee. It was such a nice morning and Todd n Lucy had such a good time. Just thought I would share that. Happy Thanksgiving. By the way this is the first mobile blog. Sorry so basic and short. It will get much better. Stick around!

sleep or "It"

Ok I've been trying to blog from my mobile. Ain't been working. So I'll try to explain all these empty titles.

This one was about my decision whether or not to get a good nights sleep or stay up and watch Stephen King's "It". Well to make a long story short I was exhausted the next morning from all the evil clown dreams but my horror thirst has been quinched.

Clique

I've started my own clique. Only I'm invited. You can look upon my clique but you cannot be a part of it. I am the president, CEO, King and GOD of my clique. I am the "In-Crowd".

Blood Sucking Fiends!!

I hate mosquitos! Does anybody else live in a swamp like we do? Does it even make sense to live in such an area? I read a book one time by Jerry Seinfield "Sein Language". He exposed the ignorance of humans by discussing the invention of the motorcycle helmet. He claimed that people were falling off of these motorcycles and cracking their skulls.. To remedy the cracking of skulls, instead of not riding motorcycles, we invented helmets so that we could continue riding the skull cracking machines which lead to broken arms, legs, necks and also caused many deaths. Anyway I kinda feel the same way when I'm lying in bed on a perfectly cool evening and yet I'm relying on an air-conditioning unit to cool me off because I can't open a window due to the fact that there are no screens on it and there are these quarter-sized blood-sucking insects swarming by the millions at every corner and crack in the building. The air-conditioner unit is frozen solid by the way so it's going to be a loooong night. So anyway, every time I'm laying in bed and I hear the mosquito plane flying overhead (yes there is such a thing) spraying God knows what into the air to "thin out" the mosquito population one handful at a time, I get the feeling that maybe this isn't the right place for humans to build houses. Of course it's a little too late for that. I'm here and I'm at work! If I were home I would have some windows open "cause I got screens at home". Even with screens there are always a few blood-suckers who manage to slip in the door every time it's opened throughout the day. And believe you me, it only takes ONE mosquito to ruin a good nights sleep! I can't count the many times I've rolled out of bed in the morning with my arms swollen and itchy to find a ripe plump mosquito hanging onto the wall for dear life cause it's too fat to fly from sucking my wife's or my blood all night. Ever smashed a full mosquito? It looks like something you'd see on CSI when you're eating spaghetti on a week night in front of the tv.

I HATE MOSQUITOS!!!

Thank you and God Bless.
