That Was Fast!

I went to that job interview yestrday and talked to a pretty nice guy but he had a strange accent and I had trouble understanding him. He asked lots of questions too.

I have a few weak spots, I'm not a licensed electrition for one.

Well, as you can probably tell from your own experiences at interviews, I was a tad nervous.
It is a maintenance position for a company that is world wide.

Apparently I said the right things because I got a phone call from the placement agency lady a little before lunch today telling me that the interview went really well and I am to report for work on Monday!

I let out a huge WHOO HOO!

Then I toldher that it was awesome and thanked her too.
I am currently two and a half hours away from home working under a deadline that this job HAS to be done by Friday. We pulled twelve hours today and made good progress but it is going to be close.

I told the Boss Man about the news and told him I have to be back in Vancouver Friday afternoon to go piss in a cup for this outfit.
I ain't worried about the piss test, it's the getting the fuck out of here in time.

There is more to this story but that kinda lets ya know what is going on.

To say I am stoked to get a full time, long term job ten fucking minutes away from home would be an understatement.

I still have some other things coming down the tube to tell ya about but I am going to string you along for awhile until I get a battle plan hammered out.

I would like to thank everyone for their best wishes for not only my recent wedding but also for this job interview.

It means a lot to me and I want you to know that.
I have had a lot of support from people I have never met yet are people I would like to call my friends.

OK, I just put in a twelve hour shift and I am fucking beat.
I may have to do it again tomorrow but I will be doing it with a slight hangover because I am going to celebrate a wee bit before I fall down and go thud.

Thanks again fer stopping by.

Mission Accomplished

It's finally a done deal.
Let me introduce to you my lovely Bride, Mrs. Ornery Bastard.

Am I a lucky sumbitch or what?
Damn, she is beautiful.

She wanted to share a couple of pictures, sorry ladies, I am married now.

It was somewhere between ninety and ninety five on Sunday and us boys could sure feel it. Wearing black shirts, pants and shoes with a freakin' tie strangling us just for good measure.

The actual ceremony only lasted a little over ten minutes and went exceptionally well.
It was a very pretty setting and quite a few folks actually showed up.
I would like to say Thank You to each and every one of them, it meant a lot to us.

It was the fiasco of getting all the pictures taken that took another two hours, with me chasing people down, running around with my clown shoes on.

We had a short reception and then drove back to my town and the party was on at the local Eagles Fraternity.

Another couple of hours of that and off we went for our honeymoon, which, by the way, got crashed by a couple of my Aunts, my cousin and her two boys.You oughtta met my Aunt Peggy, she is the female version of me without the profanity.
She is quite the party girl and totally out going. She cracks me up. get a couple of drinks in her and no man is safe.I love her to death.
That is another Blog post by it's self. I am waiting for the photographic evidence before I go into that.
It was comedic and we all had a great day.

Anyways, the fucking Drama is over.

I are married now.

Damn, I didn't realize what a good looking bastard I am.

UPDATE;

The best fucking toast I have ever heard.
" May all the ups and downs in your life be between the sheets".

Thank you Rae, her dad's toast to her.

Maybe Later

I'm sure I should rant about some fucking thing, I had an interesting day yesterday, helping my niece move.
I can tell ya one thing for sure, I'm getting old.
I did a lot of pointing.
Actually that wasn't a bad thing, they had this big box van damn near loaded when I pointed out they hadn't loaded the washer and dryer or the fridge.
Hey, sometimes it pays to stand around and drink beer.Someone has to pay attention to details.

Not such a bad thing after all.

One of my brothers has an office furniture business, they do all kinds of shit, moving peoples stuff is high on that list.
It was his daughter that we were moving, a half mile to my parents place. They are heading South for a few months.
Of  course it poured fucking rain all damn day.
My nieces new husband  was all over it, my other brother was there, he is a big dude, I really didn't do too much, for once I didn't kill my lower back. We put a bunch of stuff in a warehouse, it went like clock work.

After all that my brother C., took us out to breakfast in downtown SE Portland.
Some place called My Fathers Place.

OMG, a real working mans joint, lot's of young folks hang out there too. $6.75 for Chicken fried stealk same price for Ham, mushrooms, all scrambled up in eggs, steak and eggs too.
What a great place.
Of course, lot's of whiskey and cokes and Bloody Mary's involved too.


I surprised the GF and drove up here last night in the dark the pouring rain, got here dang near midnight.

I know I had something else to say but I'll be damned if I can remeber what it was right this second.

Time for breakfast.

BTW, this caramel coffe stuff is the shit.

Thanks fer stopping by.

Maybe Later

Here it is, almost five O'clock in the fucking morning again


Thud.

Seeing Stars

I had a very rare opportunity yesterday that I jumped all over.
I got to meet my internet heroine.The lady that inspired me to start this damn Blog in the first place,years ago.If you don't know who this lady is, you either don't watch television, use the internet or live in a cave.

That's right, Jane Hamsher of FireDogLake.com and myself.
She is just a sweetheart. She has about ten things commanding her attention at any one time but takes the time to talk to folks and really listens.

I got to meet a few other people there too, it was at the National NORML convention in Portland.
They are trying to get weed legalized, have been for years but it is looking like a real possibility.
This is Teddy Partridge, one of the contributors at FDL I have yakked back and forth with for years, hell of a nice guy too. Hell, everyone there was nice and very polite!

 Double bonus, my friend Suzanne drove two hours from the coast to meet us, she is also a contributor and a moderator at FDL, has been for years and even she had not met Jane before!

We all had a great time.
The event is being held at the Governors Hotel in downtown Portland, a fancy old place. It cracked me up to see these formal doormen opening the doors for all of these stoned out of their gourd hippies.
I went up to the second floor where all of the display booths were and when I got off the elevator all I could smell was skunk weed.
I went looking for a rest room and stuck my head in this room at the end of the hall and got knocked over. There was a bunch of people in this room just smoking out.
That would explain a lot, I almost got a contact high just sticking my head in there!
Anyway, I had a good time and like I said, everyone was real nice.
I chatted with Jane for a while and then waited while she went up to the fourth floor to watchone of the speakers that she was highlighting at FDL.
While she and Teddy were gone, I manned the booth for a while and had people fill out a petition and gave away stickers and pins for their trouble. Did I mention there were little cuties all over the place? Oh yeah.

Jane finally came back and got busy again, people are always coming up and talking to her and when that isn't going on she has her nose in her laptop doing something or other, like I said, she is a busy lady. Sweet, quick to smile, genuine and has beautiful sparkling blue eyes.We sat and talked for quite a while, I think I was there over three hours.
Yep, I had a great time.

Outta The Loop

Been at Nasty Girls since Thursday.
Yeah I have internet access, I have surfed around too. I just ain't getting too excited about posting much of anything .Exhaustion will do that to a guy.

Hey, get yer minds out of the gutter.
Sure, there is some of that too but we wind up watching movies until all hours of the night and then sleeping half the day.

Let me tell ya, this lady takes damn good care of my broken up skinny ass, I think she loves me or something.
I brought some huge pork ribs with me and she whipped up a magnificent marinade to soak them in. Lemme tell ya, that was a big assed hog, the bastards barely fit in a cookie sheet, bent over.
Good?
Oh, fuck yes they were good!
Laid in a couple days worth of sin while I am up here and am going to pick up some more when I leave. Sin, the stuff they like to tax so fucking much.
Booze and smokes.
Fucking bastards here in Washington state.
Across the river in The Dalles, I found filter less smokes for $3.50 a pack and a fifth of George Dickel Black Label whiskey for $15.75.
Last week at my folks, I paid $9.50 for one motherfucking pack of smokes and a cheap bottle of whiskey is $12.00.
Even gas is cheaper over there and it isn't self serve. It freaks the attendant out when ya tip 'em a buck too.
Hey, been there , done that. In freezing weather, rain, snow, hail, all that mail man kinda shit weather conditions.
People get used to the service and don't think twice about tipping a bartender but fuck that moron that just stood out in the cold and filled my tank. That just ain't right. Service is service.
Remember that the next time you stop and get gas in Oregon or New Jersey, they are the last two states that don't have self service gas stations.

Anyways, I ain't dead yet, just enjoying hanging out with my little sweety.
She is a good girl and I am one lucky sonofabitch.Ya don't find girls like her anymore, seriously.
She puts up with me pretty damn good, that says something, loudly.
Now, where the hell did I set that whiskey bottle down?

Btw, Happy Labor day to all of ya's even if yer like me and ain't currently employed, we still fucking earned it.

Still On Vacation

I have been getting flat tore up the past few days, enjoying just laying around, going out to breakfast with
Nasty Girl and getting hammered.
Right this minute, my head is throbbing like a sick chickens ass.
I have to be back to work Monday, wouldn't ya know that we are going to have a fucking heat wave.
105 on Tuesday, yay, I can't wait.

Right.

Just lettin' ya know I am still kicking, I am just taking a break from Blogging too.

Reverse Road Trip

Heading back to the weasel den here shortly.
This is going to be fun.
The place was a freakin' wreck when I left and now I have a weeks worth of laundry and a ton of camping shit that smells like camp fire smoke.
Tent, sleeping bag, all of my cook ware to clean and put away.
Hey, If I leave today, I still have a couple of days to do all that.
The GF is coming too.
BWAAAAAAHHHAAAAAHAHAHAHAAAAAA.

Gotta love it.

Guess there ain't gonna be no hurry.
Like I could give a fuck anyway, I'll get to it eventually, it's all in plastic bags or boxes anyway.
That gives me most of Friday and then I need to get my circadian rythm back in sinc to go back to the Salt Mines on Monday.
In the mean time,

Thanks fer stopping by, seriously, I do appreciate it.

I Got Yer Bail Out Right Here

I'm bailing outta this mother fucker early today and going on fucking vacation for sixteen days.
You can expect a few good drunken rants and then I am going to disappear for a few days.
My buddy Sponge Bob Crack Whore says he has something to piss ya off with while I'm gone and I believe him.
See ya's.

TGIF

Fuck, what a long week.
One more day at work and then I am hopefully off to see nasty Girl .
One more week from today and I am off for sixteen days.
Vacation.
I spent my vacation time last year laying in bed so sick I thought I was going to die at one point.

I am going to take off and go camping and do some fishing.
I haven't gone camping in years and miss it badly.
We shall see just how much bushcraft I can still remember.
I have some work to do around here first, a couple of vehicles need some serious attention and I need to fix the leak in the roof of the Weasel Den. A couple of days of that and then I am getting the fuck outta Dodge.

Y'all have a nice weekend and thanks fer stopping by.

Been Busy

The Girlfriend has been in town and when she is, I have better things to do than Blog, trust me.
I'll be back at it shortly.

So It Begins

It's been relatively quiet around here, must be because every one is fucking broke. I just heard a boomer go off, the first of over a million to come later.
Twenty miles to the West on the other side of the Big River lies Portland.
The Portland Metropolitan area has over a million fucking idiots in it's borders.
I can see the fireworks from here.
Not to mention the local yokels.
It is very much like a war zone around here every fucking fourth of July.
Everything you can imagine that either makes smoke, light or noise goes off incessantly all fucking night.

The cats are a nervous wreck and I usually just stay home and get drunk.
Last year, I sat in this big tin box and surfed the web, no way am I going out amongst the nut jobs and the cops.

This year, I ain't gonna be here.
The hottie Girl friend has aquired a room at the exclusive inn across the river for the next two days.
When I say exclusive, she started trying to book a room on the first of January and it was booked up for the fourth of July then.
Someone had to cancel for us to get one.

So.
I am going to be gone with no internet access for two days and nights of drunken debauchery, heavy accent on both of those points.
Despite my best efforts over the last two days, I still have an unacceptable level of blood in my alchohol system, I aim to cure that.

With any luck and if I am still alive, I will be back on Tuesday.

In the mean time, stay safe and if ya can't stay safe, stay sanitary.

Better Watch It Nasty Girl

You could be next.

Jealous asshole neighbors, I'd say.

BWAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAhaaaaa!

I am so evil.



I know the difference, trust me.

Doctor Doctor, Please

Yee Haw.
Quite the weekend.
Ow.
I am going to fall back down now, no fucking barbeque, no more anything.
I hope y'all had a good one,I am fucking wrung out.

Beer all over the fucking keyboard and cats hiding outside, whining as usual.
Whew!

I am going to have one hell of a time getting up in the morning.

Thank you baby.

Whole Lee She At. I had a good time.

I'm A Lucky Sonofabitch Sometimes

Damn, you should have seen my girlfiend at the store today.
Even the chicks were checking her out.
What a fuckin' hottie! Short black dress, killer stilleto's,tits all over the damn place.
Shit, she bent over looking at some hamburger and I had to stand behind her.
If there is anything better than a hot chick in a short skirt bending over right in front of ya, God kept it for himself.
If ya don't hear from me for a bit, you can figure that shit out, can't ya?
Bye.

Outta Town

Busy as hell too.

Hit the Blogroll and give some nice folks a little love.

I should be back late tomorrow.

In the mean time....

Like She Said

If you have been gone from the Blog, they probably know what you are doing and who you are doing it with.....

Back later after I do some recuperatin'.

Happy Valentines Day

I am having a GREAT one!
Hope you do the same.

Somebody Make It Stop!

Heh, another gratuitous Christmas ass pic for ya.

Holy fucking Christ, I'm still half drunk.
Not only is my head pounding, some damn thing is banging away outside too.
The fucking wind is blowing and the whole damn trailer is rocking and swaying.
Good thing I don't get sea sick.
Happy Holidays.

Time for round two.

Heading Out To The Highway
