Sunday Morning, and I am Going Down (for the count)

 Ugh! Up at the unwelcome hour of 2am this morning. No idea what woke me, but it was a full awake mode when it happened. I didn't feel threatened, or startled, just ... wide awake. I laid in bed, trying to get back to sleep before succumbing to temptation and checking the time. Then I knew I might as well get up. So instead, I laid there a bit longer. Then thoughts of food and drink started popping through my head, and I decided I was going to run up the QT to get a couple jalapeno/cheese sausage dogs, and fill my travel mug with Mtn Dew. So I did. Got up, dressed, drove up there - no sausages. The kitchen was closed - doesn't open until 6am. All hot food available was a couple taquitos, and I didn't feel like that. I filled my mug with soda, and grab a pack of Zingers, then returned home. Breakfast of champions at 2:30am.

I ate, drank and played Warcraft until about 5, then started this post. Not much on the excitement level, huh? No major plans today. Oldest Son is actually off work today (last I knew) and I will cehck with him if he is interested in joining us for a dinner out this evening. Middle Son went to Tucson yesterday for the weekend. Daughter is doing plans with her In-Laws this holiday weekend.

Work has been crazy lately. I might feel like checking in with them today to see if anyone is working, and if they need a couple hours or so of help. All week, I have been moved from project to project at the QC level (3 projects this week) which is weird considering the previous three weeks they weren't allowing me to do the QC work they had trained me to do. Like I said - weird. But it is happening now, so I am not complaining too much. I hope to get past this feeling of the 'speed bump' the company is stuck on. Could lead to real good things if I stick it through....

North Dakota trip is pretty much set. Flight booked, hotel booked, got a couple "essentials" I felt I needed to have for the trip. I think the only thing left really, is I need to get a new set of slip-on shoes (for the flight - I hate having to try to find someplace to sit and re-tie my shoes after security), and maybe a good set of tennies for while there.

Well, it is starting to get a little light in the sky outside the window, so I guess I am going to try to lay back down for awhile.

Early Friday Meanderings....

 What a week...sigh. I'm glad it is theoretically coming to a close, as I don't know how much more I can deal with. I mean that, in a mostly good way, but leaving it open incase I need something to bitch about next week.

Work has been steady. These recent few weeks have made me wonder about this job and think about what should I do. Stay? Go? Sigh. I already mentioned in an earlier post that I decided to stick it out, and the whole RM dreams/praying thing. Today I was on project, doing my best to be the best that I am, and life went on. Around 3pm (my time) I noticed everyone working on my project were "offline". So I literally worked alone for another few hours. Then I did a MS Teams statement I was logging out for the day, here is where the project was at, based on where the director had us concentrate at (area). I waited an extra few minutes. No answers. Fine. I am out.

I want to get a fresh early start on Friday. But here it already almost 2am, and the sleep monster is avoiding me. I don't know what to do at this point.

So, off to bed with me. Let's see what happens.

PeacE

Maybe Praying Works ....

 Monday I was quite unbalanced. The job has been causing quite a bit of frustration for me. I was angry I had 'lost time' with work while dealing with the internet issues. Even in the back of my mind I was worried about any possible reaction to getting the first covid shot. I was just not "in a good mind set", so I did what I always do - I went drinking.

So while I am out having some beers, and reading some of my current book, I'm kind of going over things in my mind about work. Should I start looking for work somewhere else - same line of business? Something new? Something I have done before? And all those kind of questions. My buddy came up and we sat and talked about my work frustrations a bit. I decided (soberly, in fact) that I was going to give it a bit longer with this company. If I show I don't bail out on them during this "rough patch", it might end up being a good thing for me.

Well, about 9:15am Tuesday I get an email from a Project Mgr (way above my level), who emailed me directly (not a group) and asked if I was available for a special project they could use me for doing some QC work. Heck yeah! More pay! Special Project! Personally asked my availability! I let her know I would be online within the hour (I was still in bed, slightly hung-over). I get online, and sure enough, I got right into a special project, even using the program that we haven't been using the last few weeks (makes it so much easier). I ended up working 14 hours straight. they needed that project done "THAT DAY", and OT was open to all who wanted. I needed to make up for the shortness in hours from Monday anyways, and I did - at a higher pay level, too!

So now it is like 12:30am Wed, and I log off. I am mentally worn out, my eyes are tired, my body a bit sore from sitting so long (I do take breaks but not many). I go to bed - because everyone else in the house is - and I cannot sleep. I still haven't tried these melatonin pills I picked up, and I am leery doing it this late at night, in case it  keeps me groggy and hard to get up at a decent time in the morning for work. So here I am.

Vaccine shot #1 update: No issues, really. Moving that arm I can feel a little soreness in the area where the shot was given, but it is not bothersome. No discoloration, nausea, headaches... but I do wish it would add some tiredness, but it hasn't, that I have noticed anyways. Three weeks to shot #2, and from what the Wife went through, it was the worse of the two shots. Granted, hers was a different brand than the one I am getting (Pfizer) - I think she had Moderna.

My buddy J sent a text out to me and another friend, the three of us are going to ND together, about he booked our hotel rooms. For four nights he got one heck of a good deal, that averages out to less than $70 each a night between the three of us. Smoking good deal! So we are pretty much ready now, just waiting on the dates. I know I got my masks for bearded men (fits better on my longer beard) and the seatbelt extenders came for the flight (2 kinds - prepared for any airline).

So.... post title. RM texted me shortly after I got up this morning, saying she was awakened from sleep, as a loud voice had called out "Mom!" to her, and she recognized the voice as mine (allegedly). Being the Reverend Mother, she immediately started praying, not only for me, but the other sibs as well. Her hope being that hopefully every is fine, and there is no need for her to worry. Of course, I texted her back saying I don't know what happened - I was asleep (drinking seems to help me sleep...hmmmm). This is nowhere close to even being the first time something like this has happened with RM. If I recall correctly, I think maybe a time or two when she has had these 'premonitions' and prayed, there was something going on with my brother, or I, or both of us together, that her prayers may have saved us. I dunno. But maybe her praying in those early hours for me, even if it was to be sure that I was safe and nothing was wrong, made today's events fall into place. Or maybe that just some good fantasy there. I dunno. I know what RM would say....

Guess I am going to go surf the internet for a bit, before trying to get to sleep again.

What a Day

 Sigh. Today was much more of a Monday than I was anticipating. I did finally get about three hours of sleep, to get up and find out that work was supposedly moving forward at 8am my time. I logged in to see that there was still a delay. So I let them know I would be back in two hours (after my shot appointment). Went and got the shot. Came home, logged in again, and things were moving. A little after 1pm, the power goes out. A brief amount of time, maybe 10 seconds, and it was back on, but when my modem rebooted, it came up with a weird status.

I spent the next 5-10 minutes rebooting the modem, and trying everything I could think of to get it working right, all with no luck. I called our provider, spent 30 minutes or more on the phone to finally get disconnected from the technical department. Contacted my Project Mgr and let her know what is going on. Spent another 30 minutes plus on hold again, and finally got the modem back up and working. Seems the abrupt power outage had reset everything to the factory settings and needed to be reset to our settings. I didn't have them written down, or I couldn't find them, so Provider helped, and I finally was able to get back online for work.

Now I have been sitting here 20 minutes waiting on the Team Lead to let me what to work on next, as the items we were working on before are now all completed. Sigh. On the plus side, the shot location is only mildly sore, and other than some small bouts of feeling sick to my stomach, everything seems fine.

I guess I will wait and see if there is any more work today.

Weekend Wrap-Up

 Had a different weekend than normal. Saturday, the Wife and I went to the Musical Instrument Museum here in the Valley. I don't know if it is the only one in the US, but nice it is here. I have had it on my list of things to do for a few years, and was glad we decided to finally do it. There was a lot of walking, as this place is much larger than I thought, and I had to do frequent breaks. Thank goodness there were plenty of benches around to take them at. Afterwards, we went to Denny's for lunch and headed home. A friend had called about a few of us meeting up at the pub, so I went up to do that. Three of us going to ND for Country Fest finalized up some remaining plans for the trip.

Sunday, I admit I stayed in bed most of the morning. I was sore from the walking the day before, and just did not feel like getting up. Because of that, my sleeping is off again for the night. It's now 3am Monday morning, and the Wife finally went to lay down about an hour ago. I tried earlier but couldn't sleep so am now back up. I did pick up some Melatonin pills the other day, but this late in the night, I thin kit would cause more problems trying to stay awake in the morning than worth the time sleeping.

I do have an appointment in the morning for the first  Covid vaccine shot. The Wife convinced me to do it, so I figured might as well. I mention that I may have (I was) be a little intoxicated at the time. Either way, both shots are scheduled. Hopefully I won't have any bad reactions. The Wife had some soreness, and was tired a couple days especially after the second shot.

Wondering if there will be any work today. Last week we were told that we would be emailed when they had more work. Still waiting. I need to log in later and approve my payroll for last week, if they ever send me the project codes ...sigh. Been a week and I still don't have them.

Alright ... well, I am going to try to find something to do...

Let's See What Happens

 Welcome to another Friday. Today will be an interesting one, considering there are multiple factors that will affect how the day will flow, and end.

1. Didn't sleep well last night. The past few nights have been just hours of short naps, with lots of tossing and turning. I'm not sure what is causing it to happen, I just know I have not had a decent night's sleep in several days. Last night, I had gone to to bed about the usual time, and was up an hour later as I knew sleep was eluding me. Finally got back to bed near 12:30am and still took awhile for the first nap. It's just now 5:30am so you see how little I slept.

2 Work. Wednesday morning it appeared we had came to a conclusion on the current project, and we were informed that they were waiting on word from the client. They did mention that it could take most of the day to get an answer, so we were asked to check back in every couple hours. I did until mid-afternoon, then knew there was no more work that day. Yesterday morning I checked in, and the same thing was going on. Was told to check back in a couple hours. I did - nothing. Then we were told they would contact us via email when the client got answers to them. I waited the rest of the day with no results. Already this morning, no email. I figured I would get this typed up before I logged into the network and see if there is any new information. I may have another day off. I don't mind it every now and then, and the way things have been lately, it helps me get de-stressed about things. Update: Doesn't look like anything yet this morning, which means waiting half the day for them to email (if something happens). If I don't hear by noon, the rest of the day (and weekend) are mine.

3. Depending on work is how today is really going to go. Though, I am expecting three packages today. One is just a funny T-shirt that was on sell for a special price. The other two items I got in preparation for my ND trip. One is a couple of masks (for the flight) that are made for men that have longer beards. So it is a better fit (with wire support) across the nose area, and basically hangs down the front of the beard rather than pushing everything back under the chin. Regular masks "bend the beard" and in honesty, make me feel a bit claustrophobic. These should be more comfortable. Why I didn't look to buy them a year ago, I have no clue. The second package is a couple of the seatbelt extenders for the airlines. Two types just to be sure I am covered. Gives me a little more slack with the extra pounds put on since my last flight.

Welp, I guess that is about all I got for now. Guess I will start the 15 minute login process for work and see what is going to happen today.

Mid-Week Post About Nothing

 For the first time this week, I am up at 6am. Sounds like a good ting, but it isn't. Sleeping issues are making it hard to get a good nights rest, resulting in making me "sleep in" later than I want. Fortunately, I have adjustable work hours and it doesn't hurt the job. I feel like this is the prepper for a bout of insomnia, again.

Not much is going on. The Oldest Son celebrated a birthday yesterday. I texted him him, but heard no reply. I am under the impression he had to work, and if he had other plans, I have no idea what they were. Once they move out of the house, I rarely see them anymore... or hear from them.

Guess I should think about getting started with work, so I can finish up early.

The Recap

 

I like The Dead South. They have a couple songs I like ... 'The Massacre of El Kuroke' and 'In Hell I'll Be in Good Company'. Easy instruments, good vocals. Good Folk vibe.

Not much has gone on this last week. Work finally got my payment codes to me. Saturday here it finds me waiting again for the project codes for this past week... all for one project. Office talk with a friend that works there as well, has me knowing more about office politics than I care to know about, which leads to questions/answers as to the process of how we are currently doing things. I think I am just going to keep on doing what I am doing, and hopefully this will all change to the better soon.

The Wife and I had a nice brunch today at one of our favorite paces, Ronnie's Cafe. Then she took me out to a discount grocery place out on the west side of town. I had not known about it, and I am actually quite impressed with the size and items they actually had. We only spent around $80, but got plenty of food stuff and snacks to last us quite awhile. Definitely a place to go to at least once a month or so to stock up on certain things. Once back home the Wife took a nap, and I wandered around the Web until I got here.

Memorial Day is coming up soon. We have not made any plans for anything. I'm hoping that Doodad and her family come up but I do not know their plans.

I booked my flight to go to North Dakota this summer. For five days in July, I will be near the Bismarck area for the ND Country Fest. My buddy J knows the event head honcho, who is giving us free VIP entry passes for the whole event. Which basically means stage-front access, and VIP area access (less crowded than general admission areas). My buddy will get a backstage pass with his package. Supposed to have some good shows: Little Texas, Brantley Gilbert, Diamond Rio, John Michael Montgomery, Lee Roy Parnell, and the big event act is Dustin Lynch. Sure, there will be some local acts, some up-and-comings there as well. Weather will be nice compared to the Valley in July!

Well, guess I should move on to doing something else 'round here.

Waiting For My Money

This morning finds me waiting an email from the HR of my company, giving me the payroll codes I need for the third project I worked last week. I understand the needs for proper billing codes, so that the correct client is billed the number and type of hours I worked, but that they take so long to get them out bothers me a little. Yesterday I woke to find 2/3 codes I needed, and am just waiting the final one... the one I worked the longest on last week. The one that makes me the most money - must be why it is taking so lone. Our ADP time thingies are supposed to be approved on Mondays before 12:00pm Central Time, so I guess I have a couple hours to wait and see if it shows up. Of course, I am going to start work here in about 30 mins....

Mother's Day went okay at my house. The Wife was not happy the first half of the day. Youngest would not get up and go to church with her. Middle Son overslept (he had just gotten off work like 6am) and missed going to church with her. By 1pm, none of the kids had wished her a Happy Mother's Day, or shown up, or anything. I putzed around the house, staying out of her way until about 3pm, then I gave her the gift from "the Boys" that I had gotten, just in case they forgot. That made her feel better. then I explained about going over to RM's so I could give her my gift. I suggested either dinner out, or pick something up on the way home. The Wife was happy to go. Shortly before we left, the Daughter did call and she talked with her and Doodad for a little bit. 

After we had left RM's, trying to find a place that wasn't crowded and had people out the door, was going to be hard. As we cruised down one major street, looking for a place, I remembered one place we liked to go: Black Bear Diner, and it was just up the road. No one was standing outside, so we stopped, and were seated with no wait. During dinner the Middle child texted the Wife at least, and apologized about missing church and wishing her a good day. I told her he was included in the gift, so sent back a reply. Later in the evening, after work, the oldest Son called and chatted with her for a bit. I think over all she had a good day, just a slow start to it. I know she still misses her mom greatly at times like this, as it has only been a couple years since her passing.

The oldest Son's bday is coming up next, and we pretty much got his present out of the way. then Fathers Day is next month, and I could care less. The Wife will usually pick me up some edible goody I enjoy, and that is the extent of that day. I'm happy. I do what I want that day (well, almost every day).

Guess I should prep for work - get my drink, have a smoke, and other bathroom things.

In The End, Things Mostly Work Out

 What a week! There were a couple days I wasn't sure what side of the grass I was going to be on ... or is that jail bars?

Work somewhat mellowed out. I'm not happy about how things are being done, but all I have rank & pull for doesn't matter. If I can get through it, like RM says, this too will pass. Like a kidney stone ten times the size of where it needs to go out of. At least I am working, and like the work, and have the opportunity to do it from home. Good things. Positives!

Later today (because it is like 1:30am and again I can't sleep) I was planning on going to RM's to give her a Mothers Day present. Then earlier tonight realized that they are gone this weekend, to somewhere up north. I know Friday included "attending" a graduation ceremony for a nephew of mine. So, I guess if a day comes along next week where I have a few hours to kill (due to time between projects) or just some evening I will run it over to her.

I actually got a gift for the Wife "from the boys" because I am sure they did not get her anything. Not because they don't care ... they just don't think about it. The Daughter will have something I am sure next time they come up.. I hope soon. I know the Wife picked up some special things for Doodad's bday, Mother Day for the Daughter, and the SIL has his bday coming up soon as well - next week in fact.

The Wife and I had a nice little dinner date tonight. We hadn't had one in a while. the Youngest had band practice at school (for real!) so we had plenty of time to sit and eat. We tried to find someplace we hadn't been before, by just driving around a little. That didn't work, so we ended up at a Dennys near our home that we like.

I might be going to North Dakota this July. Never been there before. My buddy J knows people there (he worked as a State Asst DA) and one person he knows is the event owner/coordinator/Big Boss of the annual Country Thunder Fest-type event they have there. The guy is giving us VIP passes (upfront of the stage all shows) so that's pretty cool. Main headliner is Dustin Lynch, but there will be others lesser known as well. Just waiting on my buddy to get us airline quotes to figure up what my finances are expected to be, then will be making a decision. I brought all this up to the Wife tonight, and she seemed okay with it... but we will see.

Welp, I am either going to try to go back to bed, or end up watching a movie.

Momma Said There'd Be Days Like This ....

 It's barely 9am, and I am through with today.

Yesterday, wrapped up one project, was told to expect an email about the next one (supposedly that afternoon) so I sat around the house.... waiting. Around 2pm I decided I wasn't waiting anymore, as I had some errands that needed to be done, like to the bank (deposits!!!) and yeah... drinking beer. Finally around 6:30pm I get an email about work. Not to a group ... to me individually. Basically saying, you'll be on this project - with a chance you will be pulled aside to help do some finishing touches on {two} other projects (previously worked on). Ummmm ... okay? Then she wanted to know what time I would come "online".

I repsonded simply: I'll be online at 8am PDS. Also, I have not been trained on this later stage (they call it NL) therefore, have no idea how to do it. Her reply: Oh. I thought as an attorney, you would have done this before.

ARGH!!! I AM NOT AN ATTORNEY!!!! HOW MANY FLIPPING PEOPLE DO I HAVE TO TELL THIS TO?!

Instead, I politely say that if the company wants to put me into a stage of the project I have not done before, I have no issues with learning how to do the function needed of me. Worded a little differently, but not by much. I am all for learning how to do more, and be available for more work, depending on 'where they are at' in projects. Especially if it comes with more money.

Either way, she never responded, and this morning, when I logged in, I got her attention. I was assigned to a project. Then five minutes later was pulled and put on another. Now I am waiting for work...for the last hour basically....

Sigh.

Land of Confusion (Part Deux)

 After the issues with work yesterday, I logged in at an earlier hour today thinking things have been "fixed" and I could proceed on with the regular work. Yes, some issues had been corrected. We were done with the first stage and moving on to the second (good). Oh, SNAP! We can't find files, that someone previously had opened/had/whatever, to do our QC checks. There is a short time that we have to notify someone, they have to go figure out where the original file is, get it to where we can access it....blah blah blah. Finally, shortly after noon, we (the final two doing QC work) were told to finish up and log out. We were done now with this project (for now I think). They told to look for an email notifying if us returning to a project that we did 2-3 weeks ago.... <sidelook> I thought that was done as well....? I don't know. I have no clue. As long as they tell me what they want, and pay me, I don't care.

So it's 1'ish now. they have a couple hours before I decide I need to get other things done. Like go to the bank. I received that super-special-stimulus check that needs to go sit in the bank. At least this one didn't take 6 months to get....

That's all I got today for now.

Ya Never Know ....

 ... which way I'ma gonna go.

Somehow I got through the day without a heart attack, or quitting my job, or a nap. Work started off good, then got switched off to yet another project, that they also did not have prepped for us. So there is much confusion, and questions, and people sitting around doing nothing - because of the disorganization. A week ago, I would, and probably was, saying how great this company is, but today? Maybe it is just a transition thing?

So while the normal work day is occurring, I get a call - no name, just a phone number. But I recognize it as the main number for the electric company here (APS), so I answered it. A recording comes on saying my power is scheduled for turn-off in the next 45 minutes, unless payment is received, and I can press '1' to talk to a service rep. So yeah, I press '1', asking the Wife, 'Aren't we current on APS?'... Some guy comes on, sounding harried, and "explains" that yes, a tech was enroute to shut off my power, in order to install a newer meter, but power won't be restored unless I paid a security deposit of $498.67, which would be refunded back to me in 60 days. WTF? I ask to speak to a manager. There is a pause, like 100 seconds, and a guy says this is the Billing Mgr (but it is the same guy's voice). Says I can stop the turn-off if I do a Zelle payment from my bank to the info he gives me. I'm writing all this down as we are going. I get to the part where it is a mobile number, and I look it up - it's for Florida. Why would ARIZONA electric company need a payment in Florida? I am freaking out at this point and just tell the guy, no way I'm making a payment like that. I'll call APS right now. Then hung up.

My blood pressure is sky-high at this point. Adrenaline is just ripping through me. I call APS, and within 15 secs have a live person on the line. I explain what just happened. Turns out it is a new scam that people are doing. She checked our account (no issues/calls since Jan 2019) and have been current at this address on bill payments since we started service here. I gave her the info that the call came in from APS' actual phone number, according to my cell. I also gave her the mobile number they wanted me to Zelle to - which they had not had. So maybe that will help catch these assholes faster. If the Wife and I weren't so uneasy using a payment service like that, and the situation that the scammer claimed.... I can only imagine how many people actually make that payment. Depressing. Especially when you hear about other mail and phone scams that get elderly people all the time.

By 4:30 I was done for the day. Off work. De-stressed after that damn scammer.

Then I went and signed up at a couple more sites to try to get more advanced copies of books. Hopefully something will happen there in the next few days. Can't ever have enough books. Especially since I am at 74 of my 150 goal this year. I think I need to raise it.

I think dinner, a shower, and some reading time is due....

It's a Land of Confusion

 Ay-yi-yi! Welcome to today's edition of 'I don't know what is going on'.....

Friday I had received an email from the Company (the preferred method of  communication) informing me of a "new"" project that was starting on Monday (today) and checking my availability. Since I was still finishing up a project, I informed them that I was NOT available. Yesterday, I get another email, basically saying that regardless if I was on another project, I was being diverted to a new project today, and that the Project Lead would be contacting me with details.

Let's fill in some back details .... Last week, I had a chance to meet one of the guys I have worked a few projects with, named Abdul. Over a year ago, my friend J is the one that got me to apply here, and these two worked together at that time, so we had a person in common between us.

So he meets up with us, meeting me for the first time in person. I'm sure that was a shock to him,  considering my buddy is like a mini John Cena, and I am Santa Clause personified. Either way, I find out that my name is getting "widely known" around the Company, supposedly since I am fast at reading /processing what we are doing, and Project Mgrs are always wanting me on their teams. If this is true, why is so much down-time between projects? I don't know. But he tells me this info, and I believe him somewhat. He is an attorney, and sees what they see in me.

So this email yesterday, saying no matter what I am being pulled from a project to start a new one, but no new info about the start other than the time (no meeting invite, no new info as if yet this morning). If they want me that bad for projects, wouldn't you be sure to get that info to me? Sigh. Maybe it is all just getting to me head. It is nice to know people like me work and would prefer me over others for a project.

I did a crazy thing yesterday. I bought a dozen donuts. What's crazy about that? I don't care to eat donuts. Or Cake. I have spent time over the years, with making both, to the extent I don't care for them. But I ate two of them. And another two this morning. I have to admit, these are REALLY good. In case you are wondering RM, they are form the Rainbow Donuts there near my house. The apple fritters are to die for!

The Wife's alarm clock went off this morning before mine. I thought she was just setting it for 15 mins ahead of the hour, but as I look at the time on the computer, I have no idea what time she set it for. I thought 6:45, but it just now being 6:30...why would she have it set before 6am? Why am I up this early??!! Sigh.

Land of Confusion

Edit: Talk about Confusion! It's now been an hour since I was "told" to report online. All we have been told to do is 'sit and wait'. Sigh. I wish someone would get their shit together.

In Recovery

As the alarm went off Friday morning, I knew it was not going to be a good day. I reset it, going for an extra hour. When it went off again, I did the same thing again. My head hurt, more than one of my regular headaches, and I felt "foggy" in my mind. I ended up just shutting off the alarm, and going back to sleep. The Wife woke me once, asking about if I was going to work today, and I flat out told her no. After napping away most of the morning, I finally felt able to contact my Project Mgr and let them know I was not likely going to make it online due to what I felt was a migraine. She wrote back that actually my project was off that day, awaiting the next stage of project anyways. So, in theory it didn't hurt any, except I would have gone a day without pay anyways. 

I finally started to feel a little better last night after supper. Went to bed around 10 (since I had slept so much through the day) and thought woke off and on through the night, actually felt sleep-restored this morning. Not as foggy in the head, but no headache. I have some things I need to get done this weekend, and I hope I have the stamina to get out and get it done instead of blowing it off.
