catching my breath...

I feel like I've been busy busy busy lately...

July 5th saw me start a short temp gig ordering small diesel engine parts, filling in for a guy on medical leave. A former work colleague mentioned my name to his boss and contacted me to gauge my interest. Two weeks in and I've got the hang of things pretty well and have fit in with the group in my area.

Holly and I went to a midnight showing of the last Harry Potter. Oh. My. WORD! Amazing finale to the series, and this time, the crowd wasn't a bunch of nitwits.

I slept about 3 hours after the movie, went to work and survived. I really didn't caffeinate as much as I thought I was going to need to. Holly had taken the day off, and then we met up with some of her co-workers for Mexican in Oconomowoc. After dinner, a few of us headed over to a bar to shoot pool, drink beer and make fun of people from Watertown.

I was up by 8 on Saturday and felt rested. A quick run to the auto parts store and then home to do some maintenance on my car.

Holly and I ran to Goodwill to drop off some clothes, then back home to veg out. I watched the truck race from Iowa, and I'll catch up on the Brewer game soon.

This was just the kind of day I needed to recharge.
