(((((((BobbiJo))))))) I don't know if a lot of people have noticed how I've changed.... I don't have a lot of friends, at work or in the real world. I need to do something about that, but that's almost harder than DBing for me!
I noticed that when I am meeting people in real life after getting to know them a bit on-line I have been much less introverted than the old me. So, I think I am heading in the right direction.
Fight the urge for that Cherry Coke! You can do it! How long has it been for you?
And, BobbiJo, there's nothing lowly about a B!
((((((((MB))))))) I am a Principle Multi-Disciplined Engineer! I support a computer-in-the-loop test system for missile software development and integration. Most people at work don't understand me, since I would be perfectly happy if we didn't have to do it. But no one is going to pay me what I make doing anything else, and I need it, for the time being. Some days I want to teach high school math... the advanced track... how strange is that?
In previous lives I wrote software for lasers, and got to go to plants in various interesting places to support upgrades and integration. And I spent some years working on hardware and software for various Radar systems. But the most fun I've had was working on unmanned ground vehicles, doing a lot of electrical design, software, the control system, and lots of integration. That's what I really like, is making stuff work!
I have a feeling the poor men are at a huge disadvantage when you do the blow dry and dress up! Heck, I expect they are at a disadvantage when you don't!
((((((Stacy))))) Five am? Ouch!
I still remember the smell of the mimeograph fluid from elementary school.... nasty, but still nice. Glad you are making progress, and that you are so excited about it! I am sure the parents and kids can feel it, too!
(((((Michelle))))) You just never know what you could miss! Hope you had a good day!
------ Well.... big news! I'm sleeping in W's bed tonight! Oh, but she's going to be sleeping a couple hundred miles away. I'm at her house to get the kids off to school in the morning! It does mean that I won't get quite the jump on the D paperwork that I'd hoped, but I can still start getting the ducks lined up.
I did quite a bit of thinking today.... I realized that I have to get this done, and the sooner the better. I let her abuse me (maybe a strong word, but not by much) for years! My failing was in not understanding what was going on, and putting a stop to it before it became a way of life. But that was probably 20 years ago, so I'm not going to beat myself up over that now. Just not making the same mistakes again!
