  1. Missing 'Source'

    by , 01-11-2007 at 10:15 PM (Sci Fi Story)
    What would you do if you were at work and someone said, "Hey, you haven't seen that radioactive source that was supposed to be over here, didja?" I mean really, would you look around, give a helping hand trying to locate the source, call it a day and hit the road?

    I may have a low tolerance for inept coworkers, but I opted to skedaddle. Lets think about this. The best way to minimize my exposure to radiation is Time, Distance, and Shielding. I thought I'd increase my ...

  2. Dickens at Night

    by , 01-11-2007 at 10:01 PM (Shannanigan's Search for More...)
    So today was the first day of classes.

    Yesterday was official "move into your dorm day"...and I of course spent the day instead visiting family and members of Chris' family whose home got broken into...and then slept over at Chris...

    so today, I figured, would be hectic. But not too bad, you see, because I didn't have class until 2 o'clock. I figured I'd spend all morning moving in, eat lunch, make sure all my stuff is organized, printed out, and ready to ...

    Today I have been feeling much better and have been pursuing happiness. I looked it up in a book I got a few Christmases ago about "everything" (Not exactly everything but pretty close) and I found a part about being happy. I decided that even though my mood had improved I didn't want to spiral down again. The advice was pretty basic.

  5. Jump Start

    The day of reckoning came today when I decided to finance lunch at my son's expense. I had said that if I have to go file custody papers in Springfield to the tune of $80 he's not providing was he paying for the gas and parking fees to which he chuckled and I knew I had him.
