Back to the grind

Well...after another month-ish of nothing here (sorry to you daily viewers...oh wait...), I am back in action. I've been internet-less for the past few days while moving across the Twin Cities from a southern suburb to a northern suburb. I moved in with a coworker of mine who owns a house, so it should be good. This Friday is the moving in/birthday/Halloween keg party. Also should be fun. Except the part where my coworkers are trying to set me up with their friends and/or sisters...well, maybe that could be fun too, but likely not. (no offense to the coworkers or their respective friends and/or sisters, of course)
Field work for the summer is pretty much done. The pipeline project ended in a cruel twist that involved us having to redo 10 miles of the corridor because they 'changed their minds' and decided to put the pipe on the west side of the existing one, but before they had told us to survey the east. Argh. But it did give me a chance to earn more per diem, play more trivia, and enjoy Wing It! Wednesdays. (the whole 2lbs of wings, pitcher of beer, 10.99 thing) So I'm actually looking forward to the office life for a bit. And track starts next week so there's something to keep me busy. I can't wait to throw stuff. Things are lookin good. :-)
