First Days

So this morning I woke up before the alarm went off. I was excited to head to the first official day of being on the job. I got there way too early. I don't know why I thought there would be traffic at 6:15am. I guess I won't have to wake up as early tomorrow.

Work was good. Quiet. I read about 100 pages of my book. I signed up on the list to voluntarilly leave if they were slow. About 11:20 I went to lunch and then headed back into work. About 30 minutes later I was sent home. I know...first day and I'm already asking to leave early. The thing is that I really only want to work about 4 hours a day. So these 8 hours shifts that I have to pull until after the cruise are just that...something I had to do to take the job. Me leaving early won't effect my time. I just don't get paid for leaving early. No big deal. I also got my new schedule. I'll be working 7:00am until 11:00am on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. That's not too bad if you ask me. Especially because I'm like number nine from the bottom of the senority list.

Two more days until the cruise. Yay!! My brother, Chris comes in to town tomorrow night around 9:40pm and then we'll all drive down to Tampa on Monday morning. I can't wait to get on that ship and forget about school, training, cleaning all of that.

BSG Comes to an end?!

I am a HUGE fan of the new Battlestar Galatica (BSG). Sad to hear that they are coming to an end next year. Does it mean they get to Earth? Are the Cylons defeated? Or do they find a peaceful way to co-exist with the Cylons? OR...are they going to leave it in cliff hangers for future movies? Thank goodness for DVD's so that I can always get my BSG fix!

Independence Day!

On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress unanimously adopted the Declaration of Independence. When reading the text it's difficult not to see how history repeats itself. We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their CREATOR, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate, that Governments long established, should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath s...

Hi-Tech Bed

So our Select Comfort Bed arrived today. So far so good. Although I think we are losing air (it's not staying at 100 after I fill). Not sure though. Tonight will be the real test. I think my sleep number is 35. When trying it out both in the store and at home that is where I'm not feeling any pressure on my hips or shoulders. Jerry thinks his number is around there too. I'm really hoping this will help with Jerry's back, shoulder, neck pains. He is so much better but he occasionally gets flare ups. No fun Oh yea...and the controller is Wireless. We can be gadget whores in our sleep too!
