Well guys looks like the new Owner of the House that I consider Job #1 still wants me to work.He is a Big time Contractor and will be remodeling the House and Making some Changes.Still haven't met with him to get my Instructions.Went to his office yesterday but he was in a Meeting.In the long run I bullshitted myself a $2 an Hour Raise.
Went to the Bar the Other night to meet up with a Girl that I've Known for a few Years now.Good Girl but she just went thru a Divorce and is havin a few Issues she needs to deal with.Like stay away from the Bar. Just about got my Ass in a sling on the way Home too.As you guys at the Gap may have Heard I like to Play "Dukes of Hazzard" with LEO.Well those Close calls turned into a Too close for Comfort the other night.They Finally got my number and have been following me Around ever since. Just glad I had a Mcdonalds Burger in the Truck and some damn good Excuses why that Person called me in for Swervin'.
Hang me from the Tree of Shame.Damn! I forgot the Rope.
Good to hear things are looking in Tenn. up for a change. No advice offered on the girl with issues thing, that is your issue to work out.
Which excuse did you use, you were distracted while trying to unwrap the bigmac, you dropped a lit cigarette in you lap and was trying to put it out before it turned into a major fire, you really were just trying not to hit the possum that cut across in front of you, or there was a bee in the cab with you and your are allergic to bees??

Well looks like me and the new boss is going to get along pretty good.He told me to do what I usually do and Keep doing it until he tells me to stop.Him and His dad are Hardley Riders though. Looks like the whole place will be gutted inside,Outside and there isn't going to be a Stone left unturned.Lots of the Landscaping will be coming out.The weeds and Crap next to the Lake will be replaced with Sod like you find on a Golf course.ETC.ETC.
Leo Stopped Following me so far. Or just ain't found me Yet.
The Girl well she won't get out of the Bar long Enough to come get Drunk with me...... Soooooo...... Oh well I'll get drunk on my own.
Hang me from the Tree of Shame.Damn! I forgot the Rope.
I'm really liking the guys I'm working with.Even though they ride Harleys.They don't look down Upon other bikes.Things Have Changed Around work.Everything is looking Different.Anything that I can Change to make a Difference I am.I've done and ripped up all of the dead or dying Shrubs,Trimmed all of the Over growth out of the trees,Gotten rid of the Little Plastic Fence that's been in the way all these years and I pulled up all of those Irritating Solar lights that the old boss expected to work in the shade. The guys I'm working with are all local.The Carpenters are the New bosses family.Some of the rest that I'll be working with are guys I've known or worked with for Years.I was told to Keep doing what I have Always done and don't stop until I'm told.I work Pretty much when I want and How much I want.So far No one Questions when I arrive or why I leave.For once they Understand that I have other Jobs that must be done.
As for LEO I got pulled over Again today.Looks like I made Another friend that will be following me Around for a While.The Other one.... Well he Followed me for a Little while tonight but I gave Him the Slip.He was Trying to "Push" me til I would Break the Speed Limit and Followed me too Close to try to Blind me Enough to make me Bobble.They don't Have any reason for the Harassment but I'm about ready to give them a reason to Cuff me.
As for the Girl well...... hell I don't know.Was going to share a Bottle of Crown Royal with Her but......... I drank it. Went and Saw Her at work the other day.She walked by Waiting a Table and said something About Rolling in the Hay.
Hang me from the Tree of Shame.Damn! I forgot the Rope.
Naw Dave used to Drink 7 Days a Week.Sobered up and didn't Drink any for several Years until things flew all to Hell.Now it's Just every once in a while.I do Admit I've Probably put enough Beer and Liquor Away to float a Battleship but not anymore can't handle Hangovers anymore.
Hang me from the Tree of Shame.Damn! I forgot the Rope.
Guys for once in my Life I'm Happy at work.Even though I'm working at a Job I was Burt out on it's Like working at a totally new Place.I have to Admit I am giving it an Extra Effort since I got a Raise.The guys I work with Actually Cut up and Joke Around.I have found no one that can say anything Bad About the guy I work for and Every time I turn Around He asks me if I need Money. Even though That's the First time that has ever Happened I tell Him no.I wouldn't know what to do with it.
Hang me from the Tree of Shame.Damn! I forgot the Rope.
Jug, that is very good news. I'm glad you didn't have to find a job to replace that one. It seemed like a pretty good setup when I visited.
On the topic of life updates; I have moved in with my girlfriend. We get along great even if she does have a useless son (20 Y/O......), and TWO useless dogs! (here doggy, have some nice Prestone.....) They won't be with us forever, but I she and I just might. I wish I had met her about 30 years ago, but I may not have appreciated her back then. Sometimes bad things must happen to show us what is good. I wish the coourt would give us a final date for my divorce. This is ridiculous!
Lane
If you stroke it more than twice; you're playing with it.
Too many bikes, too much time, ENOUGH SPACE, FINALLY! Never enough money.........
Great to Hear it's working out Lane.I think I might be able to Help you out with the Worthless 20 Y/O.If you'll Kidnap him and Bring him up here in my neck of the woods I'll put him to work.Garuanteed after a day of picking up rocks I'll make him Appreciate his Dinner.
Hell you guys never know I may bring part of the crew I work with to the Gap with me next spring.
Hang me from the Tree of Shame.Damn! I forgot the Rope.
