It’s been another few weeks,… I’m here is anyone else?
Let’s see what’s been happening with me lately…
For starters, I’ve been going to the gym regularly. Doing a hundred crunches, a hundred pushups and getting my usual 30 minutes of cardio in. Class has been going well and will go even better now that the work-sharing government program is in effect.
This work-sharing program, if I haven’t already mentioned what it is, allows a company that is slowing down in work to have non-union staff (such as office staff and IT) to take a mandatory day-off at a certain percentage of pay (between 45% and 60% of your current wages for that day off).
Well, that is going into effect the first week of May… So, during my day shift, I get Friday’s off and during my night shift I get Wednesday’s off…
So that means for twenty-six weeks (upto thirty-eight weeks) I will get those days off. Which means I can have some kind of social life and back to class which I’ve desperately missed… Next to golf, cooking, chatting with N and being on the computer, Class is my only ability to really let myself go and enjoy it to the fullest.
WoW Update.
Just a quick note. We downed Nefarion after 18 tries over 2 days. Green and Black were the colours of the Dragons. 3am EST when we killed him… long, long day…

Other than that, Red vs. Blue Season 4 has ended and the DVD will be out soon. I’m looking forward to that.

Red EyeThe Lion, the Wedding and the Stag… no, not a movie title…although it could be
I missed Dave’s Stag because I had to work. I get a message from Jenn asking why I didn’t go, etc etc… I told Dave on the phone when he called me that I had to work nights a week before his Stag. If I could go I would, but there was no way I could of gone… Sorry I missed it. Don’t worry, the wedding (as you keep reminding me) is only under a month away… I get it already…
Father’s BDay, Mother’s Day and Golfing… what a dilema…
Got a call from my dad recently, wanted to know if I wanted to go golfing, as if I’d pass that up. In a few weekends its his bday… It’s also mother’s day. I’d better get mom a card and a cake or something for her special day (other than her bday and christmas). I don’t know, I may be able to buy her that Porsche since dad and I are playing a thousand dollars a hole… Maybe a trip to Bermuda…
Other than that I’m not that busy really.
Work is Work. Many days I hate people.
