Wow! My own blog. Now I just need to figure out what I want to say! :-Þ
It's funny how you can always say to yourself, "I wish I had a forum for all these great thoughts I have' and then when you find your soapbox, how all those great thoughts escape you. I suppose that's Murphy's Law kicking in again.
First of all I think I should say an anonymous thank you to Elissa H. of Azzaelea's Blog. I was surfing for interesting sites to occupy some spare time that I had and I came across her little corner of the internet. I don't know her, but here's a thank you to her, for introducing this medium. Check out her site if you too are looking for something interesting to read in a spare moment. http://azzaelea.blogspot.com/
I suppose the reason that I found Azzaelea's site, and why I'm writing this one is, I am on a new quest. A very wonderful part of my life ended recently. The cruel winds of fate have made it impossible for me to ever meet the one girl in this world that is most important to me. That was a very sad moment in my life. But from moments of great pain can come larger truths. That is what I am hoping will come from this. The girl in question, and she knows who she is (hi Tara) still cares, and will always be one of my best friends. However, internet buddies is as far as our friendship will ever go. ...sigh... However, with her support, and the support of the rest of my friends (and you guys know who you all are (-: ) perhaps I can find new love. So, to any of you out there on the internet, if you know a great girl, or even better if you are a great girl, send me an email. telk2@hotmail.com I would love to meet you. Today begins my quest for new friendships. (Okay, it actually started a couple days ago but today is the first day of this blog so spare me the conceit of this indulgence. (-: )
In case you can't tell already, I'm a pretty longwinded person when given a medium to type. I find the printed word to be a very comfortable medium. And thus, I hope, I will find the voice that kind of escapes me right now, and I'll have plenty to post here. At worst, check back occasionally, and see if I've thought of some new things to say. At best, check back alot, and read my crooked ramblings. :-Þ
What is on my mind today? Not a whole lot, to be honest. But then again, its on 10:30 and I just woke up! :-Þ Is it cheating my employer if I come to work at 8:00 but don't really awaken until 10:00? :-) I'm at work, so I guess I'm cheating my employer again. :-( I should really do something about this situation. Meh.
On my plate today is two projects. I am trying, with limited success, to complete the drawings and specifications for the Town of Souris project. Its done, save submissions from two suppliers. They are being recalcitrant, much to my aggravation. Supposedly, they are going to get me the information I require today but, that's been said before so I'm not engaging in any breath holding on that. As well I'm doing up plans for the White Bear First Nation treatment unit. That particular project is going well. After some monkeying around yesterday, I think I will be able to match the vexing height requirement that was given to me. It's going to look like a squished marshmallow, but I think it will work. :-)
Two things to know about me, I like using smiley faces in my messages, and I have a penchant for big words. :-)
Its Friday so I get to go home today. Home being Saskatoon, while work is in Watson. There is nothing wrong with Watson, in fact its a nice little town. But after a week here I get lonesome for Saskatoon again. I have no plans, thus far, for the weekend, but that may well change. I'm always open to suggestion, so send me one if you have one. :-)
For someone who had nothing to say, I've kind of rattled off a fairly long message here. Maybe someone will care, maybe they won't. I guess I'll find out in time. Until my next post, later dude!
