Pud night. And I got eight hours of sleep yesterday, and I feel great, and I'm off for the next seven nights.

The world is a wonderful place!

Except for Karen's sick now. She was sick yesterday, too, but I forgot to mention it in my haste to get to sleep. Yesterday she had laryngitis, which makes it really hard to talk on the phone to customers... so she called in. She felt pretty good otherwise... yesterday.

Today she's not so good, got all the signs of a really good cold. Cough, fever, runny nose etc. Still can't talk, either. So she's staying home again today.

Yesterday morning when I was ready to go to sleep she gave me a leg and back rub....mmmm. I tossed and turned for at least fifteen seconds before going to sleep!

20010221 I talked to my supervisor last night, she's offered my job to two applicants, and they both decided against it. Maybe I should stay where/when I am and just have them pay me twice as much? Nah. I don't want to be where/when I am anymore.

Trouble is... there are just way too many jobs open now, people can pick and choose... and very few people want to work nights.

To tell the truth, I would reconsider working nights if I had another tech there with me and I got paid double... that would make it worthwhile. We could takes turns sleeping and working.

Anyway, I did get a little studying done last night, coupla hours worth anyway. I need to do more the next two days, get it all done before the first of the month.

Nasty weather has returned. Snow this afternoon... it got up to almost 60F Monday, I don't know what it did yesterday. Gloomy, it is, outside. Bust place for gloom, as I've always said... somewhere outside of my head.

I'm gonna sleep for a coupla hours now, then get up and be normal for a week.

My boss asked me to work Friday evening, and I said "NO!" without even thinking. Surprised the hell out of her, she's used to me saying yes.

I was proud of me.

Maybe Karen and I will finally get to Wichita!


Thanx for being here!
