Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

strength to travel
I feel that I am getting stronger with my change of what I do at work. That's good! I drove home and got to see ten wild deer in the fields. There were three at one place, etc. Some of the distracted drivers missed them -- talking on the phone tends to occupy your attention.

How work will remember me
Bed hard.
Room cold.
Food tasteless.
It's about time you got out of here, you've been compplaining ever since you got here.
From an old joke about a man who enters a monastary and may only utter two words each ten years. After thirty years, he quits the order. That's how I feel now, I don't complain really, but rather am trying to find solutions to situations. I am seemingly annoyed, but am really thinking of solving something I consider to be a problem. I don't complain about it, but rather try to find a solution.
This is especially important when the company follows the "1 Minute Manager guide". Don't complain, find solutions.

I think $6 million is too small ... go for $12 million
Now, perhaps I'm playing favorites, which I am, but Carol Burnett far exceeds "Family Guy". Fox, you did wrong, you know you did, pony up. Fox isn't the worst or only channel to dig into a sewer pipe and claim it television, but here, clearly they did wrong. I'm sure there just wasn't anyone to seek regarding many of the other like issues that "Family Guy" uses, like "Willy Wonka" and many others.
I'm sure sometime soon, we'll all be deafened by the advertisements, also on radio, of Fox being "daring" enough to air "Jackass" and "Jackass 2" during primetime. I don't doubt that it would "seem like a good idea" to some programming manager.
One: rude, crude, disgusting shows should really be aired after 10. I opt out of watching, so I'm not hardly concerned, but others pushing the envelope and viewers loving it spells the end of television, just about, for any children I might raise.
Well kids, you have a choice of 12 channels: Disney, Nick, Fox Family from (3:30 - 7:00), Discovery, Cartoon Network from (7:30 - 9:30), weather channel, some limited news, and the local channels. The sports channels, perhaps with continued parental viewing.
Carol, I empathize with your situation. Kick Fox's butt -- sue, win!

Come home and ...
"Come home and come over to play with me", Charlie announced into the phone. I got a message on my answering machine from Charlie, wanting to play with me. This week might turn out better, but I frankly don't know. I'll found out today if I will have off Tuesday or whatever and if I'm there til close or at open -- but I should make time to see my good buddy Charlie.
