Geez, it's cold (-25 C). Fimbulwinter must be coming.

It's 25F here in Tucson, which is - for us - horrendous.

Plant's down, got some broken pipes.  Not a disaster like 2011, because the operations foreman had a brain in his head and drained the pipes when the pumps started going offline.

Threw a shaft in a generator, though.  That's a mess.   :lulz:

That place you work is an ongoing disaster! Geez.

I went on a date with the Satanist last night, which unfortunately confirmed what I had begun to suspect; former Jehovah's Witness + heavily involved in OTO = not very bright. I mildly overindulged in both beer and cigarettes to pass the time, and today I am paying the price. Again. A price I already paid last night in boredom. Oh well.

In other news, Mr. Language is in Cancun having some kind of revelatory experience I think. We've exchanged a few emails.

It's what keeps me interested.  This is the end of the line for adrenaline junkies, just as Keith Richards is the end of the line for heroin junkies.  Sometimes I wake up on Monday morning with work order still jammed into my arm.  Degradation.

So ive finally been able to log on here with my phone. And i now have full functionality and it looks like it does on the computer. The down side is that it takes a long time to load anything and its a little cumbersome to navigate

For 15 years I've had the kind of insomnia that won't let you get to sleep. For months at a time I have laid in bed until 4am, unable to get REM. This results in me being a somewhat angry person.

Now, ALL OF A SUDDEN, I have the kind of insomnia where I snap awake at 4am unable to get back to sleep.

WTH?

Welcome to the club, Alty.

Don't worry, you'll still get the first kind.  And, on very special nights, you'll get both kinds at once.

"Don't know why nobody has been able to figure out why your phone line is crackling and your internet is dropping all day long. I checked your line at the exchange today and it was the only one not soldered to it, being just kind of loosely wrapped around the contact instead. The sound you were hearing was the hardcore arcing that was going on in there."

OH. ONLY NOW DOES SOMEONE THINK TO CHECK THAT?

Well fuck me. I was told the job I applied for was a tutoring position, for which I am extremely well qualified. Qualified enough that even though I hadn't formally applied yet, I got a call back for an interview like half an hour ago.

And then the lady called me back again to ask for my teaching credential because it's an actual teaching position, not a tutoring gig. And I don't have a credential. So, yeah, no interview.

Head is full of fuzz.  Not sure why.  Maybe slept too much, followed up by too much reading today (too rainy to go for a run).  Concentrating on anything more complex than TV is virtually impossible.

If I have the flu, I am going to kill someone.

Actually, by the sounds of it, Richter, Luna, and myself are experiencing the same symptoms, most likely contracted on Saturday at an event from some vector or another. All I can say is that, between last night and right now, I've gone from a light cough to wanting to hide under my covers to control the aches and chills.

I started popping Airborne last night when I first started feeling meh, and have been continuing today with some zinc lozenges as well. It may take me, but I'm not going down without a fight.
