You take the good, you take the bad, that's the facts of life.....

Houston, we have a “go” for launch…..
Roger that….3……..2…………1………..lift off.
Comcast came through for me and after dinner last night I was able to surf the matrix at blazin’ speeds while watching explicit sex scenes from Basic Instinct 2. Very disturbing.
Doggie story: I had to go to the main office to get my Comcast equipment and this guy is carrying out this little puppy with the saddest look on its face. I ran inside and got my equipment and the owner and puppy were still in their car next to mine. The window was rolled down and the little dude had its head out the window with the biggest puppy frown ever. I melted so I had to pet her and ask the owner what the breed was b/c she had the face of a boxer pup. It was a PUGGLE!!! (mixture of beagle and pug) And she was salty b/c she had gone to the vet earlier that day to get her shots. I would've liked to stay and play but had to run.
Work story: I finally proved my worth and got four LED warning lamps to operate. I had to create some events based on input channels from a laser level sensor and a linear potentiometer (aka Johnson rod *seinfield tidbit*). Using the events I was able to configure triggers for the individual lamps. The quirky part was the priority attribute. Based on the numerical order of the triggers for the 4-lamp satellite display, the trigger that was number 1 would have priority over number 2 and so forth. So, I was trying to prove that each lamp could be operated one at a time. The trick was to set up hysteresis events that would have dead space between them so that a high priority lamp wouldn’t be active and preventing a lower priority lamp from actuating.
Again, this is why I don’t talk about work too much b/c most people just wouldn’t understand and its for me mostly. So, long story longer, I’m doing okay at work and getting used to everything.
Gym story: my new Cardinal sucks and I was in a rush to get there and done yesterday b/c my buddy, Dan, invited me to dinner with his fiancé and her friend. After running, I was blasting my arms real quick (b/c my brother is attempting to get big so he can beat my ass so I need to stay ahead of the curve) and in the mirror I saw the most beastly woman I have ever seen up close. This chick’s arms and shoulders made me look feminine and petite. She had washboard abs that made me want to take off my clothes and do laundry right then and there. Dear God she was ripped.
Dinner story: this place called Marco’s has $9.95 six ounce fillet mignons on Tuesday. Pretty sweet deal cause you get salad and a potato. I immediately noticed that the waiter was so flamin’ that he was raising the temperature in the room. Halfway through dinner, Dan’s fiancé and her friend informed me that the restaurant was indeed a gay hotspot. Indy is a weird city, man…….weird.

Just in general, it’s a weird but good feeling when you step back and just let other’s become who they will in life and with no intervention whatsoever, they become the person you knew they could be……………………
