So, then my dad called to find out when I was coming home. While I was on the phone something else happened, but I really can't remember what it was! Then on Aledo farmer road, I hit a vulture!! And I went to bed at 8:45.
That's my crazy adventure post for now... I'll get a serious one up pretty soon. There's been a lot on my mind recently.
[--EDIT--] Susan's got it... it was some guy running across I-20 talking on a cell phone. [/--EDIT--]
Well... after the long weekend of mostly work projects around the house, and a few parties. . . it was back to work for another week - although only a 4-day work-week! I got up yesterday morning after dreaming that my alarm didn't go off... (It never did) It was 5 til 7, and I had to leave for work at least by 7:15. I quickly dressed, skipped breakfast, skipped COFFEE , and headed off. I did not know what was in store for me that day. Work went fairly well up until it started raining... and of course I'd be out traveling somewhere. Finished working up in Coppell at 4:30 but didn't make it back downtown until 6! On my way home, someone decides to tailgate me until I move over, then speed past me, cut me off and slam on the brakes! Man, I burnt some rubber to avoid a collision. For what reason they did that, I still don't know!
This story will be continued... (It's 8:00, I have to work)

Hey whoever reads this... I went up to Blepo today to discuss future work with them. It went really well, I got to spend the day with one of the guys out on a call moving workstations. I'm going to be starting next week, working part-time 3 days a week. (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) This was a huge answer to prayer and I'm excited about it!
I left yesterday morning at 5:30 for a 3 day job with Blepo out in Mt. Pleasant. I got back this morning at 2am. We got out there at about 9 and started running network cables. We ran probably somewhere around 8 - 9,000 ft. A lot of it was run through a ceiling that was insulated with fiberglass. So I was pretty much covered with fiberglass shards at the end of the day. It was a great experience - we worked for about 13 hrs.
Here's quick update on the job situation. I might be doing a little contract work for Blepo on at least one project. So that's a little answer to prayer. God is good! That'll at least give me a taste of that field so I can see how I like it in the 'real world'.
I've been posting way more often that I thought I would...
I'm going to be gone all this week, (Back on Friday, I think)
I still can't get my thoughts to come out of my fingers. My fingers weren't born to be writers. I've been trying to teach them and I'm getting better, but it's not at all that good. Contrary to what you may think, I really do have some serious thoughts.
I found out this week that I not getting the job that I applied for. It's disappointing, but I'm sure it's for the best. God's been teaching me recently that the world doesn't owe me anything, He doesn't owe me anything. In fact, I owe HIM my life, my all, my everything. I need to be totally committed to following his leading in every area of my life. Sure it's easy to give him some areas, but then there's some that I'm just like, 'No way I'm giving this up'. But it's those small things that satan loves to use for his purposes, and when I think about it, that's a scary thing.
It's Saturday and I have to do some things around here. So I'm going to leave this post where it's at.
