I just got home from work. It’s Saturday morning, my hands and face are tinted black from the dust and dirt from work and I’m waiting for Joe to get out of the shower.

So Myrtle Beach was a blast. It was so relaxing, even though there were some things that sucked. Omega was obviously one highlight of the trip. I miss Omega. I have a small selection of pics, but I’m too lazy to get the link. Maybe later.

At work, things have gotten a bit cooler. Since my replacement can handle the lab by himself, I’ve been working out on the deck, doing some work that is actually challenging. I won’t bore you with the details (yet) but basically it’s melting the metal, adding alloys, cleaning the metal up, getting the samples, taking temps and then starting over. It’s really wearing me out. I can feel myself getting stronger from the lifting and crap I gotta do. That’s a good feeling.

Anyways, I’m done with Cast-fab in a week. I wouldn’t mind hanging around and helping out where I can, but I got an amazing 21 credit hours for school next term, and I just wanna find a job somewhere that I can work like, a night or two a week and on the weekend, just to have gas money and money for my car payment. I have a healthy amount set back from working at Cast-Fab, but books and tuition are likely to destroy that.

So why the hell did I schedule 21 credit hours? Well, I was anticipating classes being cancelled, but they weren’t… but the good thing is that a review of my status at school shows that if I finish all of these classes, I’ll have only 4 more left, then two co-ops. I don’t remember if those 4 includes the final project. So if I bust my ass, there is a chance I could graduate by the end of the term. MAYBE, I could get a co-op for the summer term and take two classes at night (uggh) then do the same thing next term and be in a very good spot. I’ll worry about that in a little while though. Gotta focus on the right now until I get back in the groove of school.

So yeah, since I don’t plan on working too much I’ll have all (or most of) my nights open, so if you want to do something, lemme know.

Anyway, Joe is out of the shower and there is no sense in me sitting around being stinky, so I better go.
