Also at the office...had a choice of working a half day and getting a free half day off, or burning a vacation day I'll need next year. Not doing as much as I should, unfortunately. There's maybe 6 people in right now in an office of 130

I was supposed to be working a half day today......but that's turning into a 3 hour shift starting at 11.

To be totally honest I'm only here to get away from the inlaws wandering my house.

Emergency Services are appreciated. Thanks for your work.


That said, I'm off at Noon.

I had the choice between taking today off and NYE off. I took NYE. There will be more to do on NYE. Today I am getting paid to do nothing, except surf the internet for macabre xmas pics and think about quirks with the NHL points system.

I'm working today - I'm self employed and work out of my house, so it isn't as bad as having to go into an office, but still.....

Let me teel you the story of a guy that woke up drunk yesterday and then disregarded it and drank some more. Guess what happened next...

He woke up in someone else's house. He was downtown. He wondered... "Do people post on CP while I'M not there??!?" "Is there internet in this f'n place?" "Where the hell am I?" And then he realized there was someone else in the bed....
Question #1... IS SHE HOT? Please. God, please. It wasn't that one that was standing by the VLT machine, winking at everone who passed? Please, god... Tell me it was that perfect 10 that was with that other perfect 10. Tell me that they're both under those covers. That mop of mangy hair? It could be a blonde and a brunette... So she snores... No biggie. She? I mean THEY!...

There's only one way to solve this. Sneak the hell out of here and hope that your truck is in the vicinity. Hell, I'll panhandle for bus fair. I'm not lifting the covers.



Well, folks... I'm here to tell you that my night went nothing like that. That was saturday. LAST night I crashed on my buddy's couch. With my phone turned off.




So, in closing, I'm working today. Working on forgetting the last couple of days.
