Hahahahaha.


I drive a company truck so I'm doing good and smelling great!


We are about to start working 4 days a week, 10 hours a day, to save gas. That is fine by me.

Oh if it gets bad enough, they yank the air conditioner. I had a buddy who worked for a pipeline company; he had a company truck and I remember getting a big kick out of some of the strange regulations they passed down to him. Here's the funniest/stupidest - The corporate bigwigs realized that most of the accidents involving their vehicles were related to backing up. So they passed a regulation that they could park their vehicles where they had to back out of a parking space . . . I guess the company brains didn't realize that this only mean they had to back into the parking space, so they were backing up just as much as before. You would think their chauffeurs would have explained it to them.

LOL,

and in unrelated news ... did you get my message? That happily!! your books DID arrive! And thanks for signing them. Thanks for sending them. My husband has confiscated Finding Heroes, so I'll be starting with Flatheads as soon as I finish the job I'm on (well, I've already peaked and read a few pages ... but seriously into it later. Looking forward to it.

I'm so glad they arrived :)

Oh good. I was getting worried that either me or my aunt had lost our minds (and therefore your books).
