Ronnrie

Jan 21, 2009
Today I had lunch with Ron & his wife along with the 3 gents from my office. We..by we I mean me..have been trying to schedule a time when all of us could meet together and have lunch as a way to say Thank You Ron for all the many years you served Work. Which has been 37, a long time in these days as people tend to not have that much patience with companies.

After lunch I realized that this is probably the last day that I'll ever see Ron because I am horrible at keeping in touch with people. And I really did like him. I have a habit of adopting people into my wee family and I did this with Ron. No he wasn't a father figure, but more of a grandda figure.

He was always willing to look at my car when it was making funny noises or give me advice about not work related things, along with work related things. Honestly I'll miss this man and hope that I'll be strong enough to break my horrible habit of not calling people.

To which I say to all my friends, or people who call me a friend...I'm sorry!! I am horrible I know, but I do miss all of you, I just always think I'm being a nuisance when I call people. But do know, that I care about you and am missing you. This goes to those I call my family as well. Which I also don't keep in touch with very well. It is a habit I am trying to break, just not trying with all my might. I know I know, bad! But habits are hard to break.

Poor Fishies

Jan 13, 2009
Warning...Pictures below are disgusting yet very real & very true...this is what I dealt with yesterday while checking on our fish.

This is...correction, was my beloved "angel" sadly she is no more...sniffle sniffle.


Image

This is one angle of our second large pump...angel was stuck on our small pump.

Image

Here is another angle of our larger pump that kinda shows all the mangled fish...just wait...there's one more!!

Image

Mind you there were two fish stuck like this. Sniffle sniffle, both of them were my precious koi.

I guess the good side is we still have 6 alive! We still have 5 goldfish and Blackeye...our one living koi still.

I've only spent all day today and yesterday thinking of what to do for the poor deceased fish...this is all I've come up with.

Sorry for the gross-out blog today.

Gaelic or Irish

I've always wanted to learn gaelic if possible, but as it might be a wee hard to find an instructor I've also thought about learning Irish first...Oh well.

One day maybe...

Funny Bossman

Jan 6, 2009
So my boss asked me just recently...

"You know its snowing?"

Which I take as, its snowing you should leave now. But I'm so close to being done with his portion of the presentation I've been working on today...I just want to finish it!!

Sadly I should probably leave since yesterday was a horrible commute home, but normally its worse here in Draper than up north!!
