Good morning Space, Drew, Mike, Dustin and others. More rain. How much more can we get. Better than snow I guess. Snow will probably wait till Monday when we leave for vacation. I hate interstate driving in the snow. Not alot for me today, might do a little organizing around here. Have a great day.

Thanks Space. Like I've said several times, we'll see what happens from here. It's rare that I can talk to someone I just met and lose track of time like I did Friday night. The main exceptions to that are when I meet other prior service guys, especially if they're a tanker (another new friend I made Friday, he was pretty cool). It was kinda funny though cause as soon as Brooke left the party, Gabriel (my friend who hosted the party) and his wife were already giving me advice on my next move lol.

Morning Guys,

Dreary start to the day. Looks like rain / drizzle all day. Yuck. Not very cold, though, so that's nice.

Mellow day at the office expected. Meeting someone from my old office for coffee later this morning. Taking the afternoon off. Then I'm off work through 30 Dec. Well, I'm officially on vacation next week, but I just found out that I'll be needed on one project. So I'll bring my computer home and do whatever is needed from there.

Dustin - I'm not really sure what that entails. If you have time, could you explain a little of what you did?

Hi `Drew (Sarge), I think Gabriel would be a great choice as your Best Man "Friends are more precious then Gold 4-Sure" Enjoy the adventure/experience of getting to know each others....Time will reveal the connection

Thanks, Space. We talked to our daughter yesterday. She traveled to Germany a couple days ago to spend the holidays w/relatives of my wife near Cologne. It's our first Christmas without her at home, but she's in good hands and having a great time.

You getting any time off over the holidays?? All work and no play makes Space a dull boy...

Got some last minute shopping to do today. Anybody else got Christmas or Holiday shopping left to do?

It's nice to see people are getting some time off during the holidays.


The lack of snow here is certainly better for those of us who need to do last minute shopping. Plus the fact I hate shovelling snow. Kinda sucks for the kids though. The ground isn't hard. It's soaking wet and if you step on it, you sink into the mud. It would be nice to have some snow on the ground for the kids to play in.
