humpday

Twelve hour day today.  Incredible amounts of stuff done, and no, we ain’t leavin’ early,,,

In fact, due to the other contractors, we are forced to stay over another day longer than scheduled.    There is 70’+ of stuff we can’t even start on let alone wrap up until they have poured the concrete and its set up enough that we can work.  

They aren’t pouring until tomorrow,,,

grk,,,,

iswhatitis,,,,

Grrr, How I dislike that term,,,, but

TRUTH,,,    Can’t make the world speed up or slow down just because it doesn’t fit YOUR desires.  

And that was the gist of the argument that I had with the other Crew lead,,,    He’s been pushing and pushing ( his crew.  I had one other with me all day and that was ‘my crew’.) and I had to point out,,, “We have all tomorrow to do what amounts to 6 hours worth of work left” (not counting that part we can’t even touch until Friday mornin’)   Thats IT!!!   Some of the detail stuff he was pushing isn’t going to gain us anything today, other than add time today that could be added tomorrow instead.  He’s pissin’ off his crew (and believe me, they let me know when they see me. )  and I get to play diplomat,,,  

BUT, we aren’t being flayed to death by scorching sunlight this time.  Lots of cloud cover, hot and humid, but without the sun beating us into submission, tolerable.   Occasional rain showers that we work through (unless we hear thunder, like yesterday,,,)  and those points are always refreshing; rinse the sweat off and cool ya down at the same time.  

miss my babbies,,,   miss my sanity of a quiet hillside retreat.   I would love to unplug the boobtoob in the room, but ‘Roomie’ is addicted to it (different roomie from last time, but they both flipped that beast on the minute they walk in the room.   All I can do is put in noise canceling earplugs and bust out my books and hope they don’t want to intrude.  (which is usually the case,,, they get sucked into the most trivial bullshit on that box.)  Fact: other than the occasional catch at Da’s, I have NO interaction with the subliminal programming of the Mainstream networks, or cable networks for that matter.   I get most all of my information through Internet sources, most of which are from overseas, and I pick and choose to see as many different sides as I can.

I digress,,,

I don’t care really,,, neither of these guys have any interest in actually using thier brains very much, let alone trying to expand them; maybe even learn something useful and new.   One even told me, “I quit learning when I left school” (a blatant falsehood, but I’ll let it slide) and my comment back was ‘My education started well after I left school, and I found out that most of what I was taught was flat wrong.

I’m whooped,,, babbling even.   Just wanna go home and spend time with the kids and silence.
