Ya we are up 10 to 20 but you can sure tell it's the first game of the season. Neither team playing that well in my estimation.
Well finally they're playing like Seahawks. Final score 16 to 36.

Mornin' all. I took a few to catch up this time, which wasn't much of an option yesterday. GREAT reading, thank you one-and-all.
Oz - sorry I missed that you're starting anew. Best of luck, in all sincerity.
Bov - it was difficult to "Like" one of your posts, but I read it. So... :-(
Kat- nice owl you've got there! ;-)
Fran - I don't know what I'd do without your coffee (bowing to The Lady).
J5 - Nice win.
Skipping off happily to my still-in-place-for-now occupation. My day begins with a return call to the aforementioned entertainer. His most recent voice mail contained only ONE profanity. Ha! It's going to be good day, for sure.
HAPPY FRIDAY, IKV'ers!!!

My new job...
IS AWESOME!
And painful. That's the hardest I've worked my ankle since the last break. And my back feels like I got hit by a large pickup... twice. The shift change is still killing me; I was barely hanging on by a thread by the time we were wrapping up.
It's a restaurant up front, doing pizzas & sandwiches & pastries. There's a half dozen people working up there at any given time. The back 1/2 of the building is my domain - after training it'll be just me back there. There's 2 of us for the job, I'll have 4 days on, 3 off, 3 days on, 4 days off. (But he made it sound like I might be able to snag a few more hours if I want them.. maybe doing straight 4-3's) During the peak summer & winter season, I'll get an assistant on some days, but I still run the show. It's all rustic baking - loaf breads, focaccia, baguettes, sour dough, french dough breads, bagels, buns & rolls. I make all the breads for the restaurant up front & provide orders for the local grocery store as well as some restaurants in the area. It's almost like 2 different places in the same building - no one really comes back into my area & I rarely have to go anywhere up in their section.
It wasn't that difficult of work - rustic baking is rustic baking, follow some recipes, set some timers & read the dough - but they were all making a huge deal out of how fast I was picking it up. The hard part is learning the new recipes & getting the flow down. The owner (who is training me) is super awesome. He has a ton of respect for his people & is just a cool guy all around. He has high expectations where he needs to & is super laid back about everything else. The people are really nice too. Can't remember hardly any of their names... but there's the guy with a big beard & dreadlocks... and that other guy with a beard and dreadlocks... and this other guy with a big beard and dreadlocks... and that other person with dreadlocks, but she doesn't have a beard... yeah... I work with a bunch of hippies mostly.
All in all, I haven't been this happy starting a job.. maybe ever. Now I just gotta get these old bones from convincing me it's past my bedtime at 11 so I can power through that last hour or 2. Tonight... there shall be coffee. Muchos coffeeos.

I never watched football until toward the end of last year. Found myself in front of the TV watching the hawks last night with daughter and friends. I can't help it. They are right here!
Hi everyone!! Back to work for me...
Oz it's great to see hear excitement about the new job! I told you you had this
Cat, I might watch parts of the Super Bowl, or check on a score every now and then, but that's the extent of my interest. Same with baseball and the World Series.

Football is the only one for me too. Sometimes I even miss watching that. Basketball, baseball, soccer, and the rest I have no interest in.
I got about 2hrs. sleep last night and was just getting ready to doze off when I got a call from a girl I am friends with that needed a ride from the doctors to her friends house. Friend wasn't home so I had to take her home which is around 40mi. round trip at 6:30AM. Figured I may as well run some errands while I was out so now I think a nap is in order. See y'all later.
