If tomorrow follows the pattern..


  • I will end this week with about 12 hours of overtime. That's about $225 on top of the $500 I'd normally make in a 40-hour week.

  • My next couple of checks are going to rock, but I'm worn to a nub.

  • The sad fact is we're just short of drivers. We need at least one more warehouse/driver person to handle relief and hotshots. We may well be hiring one soon.

  • But today's route. Yeah.

  • Very tired.

  • Luckily, today was a day game. Giants baseball: torture. We jumped out to a 7-3 lead on the strength of back-to-back homers by Pat Burrell and Pablo Sandoval, and a Burrell Grand Slam.

  • Then the bullpen gave it all back.

  • Tied in the bottom of the 9th, the Cubs allowed the bases to get loaded, and then Andres Torres smashed what would have been a ground-rule double, but instead was simply a walk-off hit.

  • Kirsten is doing strange things to my truck in the name of art.

  • There's really very little else to report these days.

  • Unpacking is going very slowly due to the insane hours

  • But this place is starting to feel like home.

  • Food soon, then bed.
