I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.

I really liked that movie... so badass!

Just back from Walmart. Husband starts a new "shift" today at work which they want him to supervise. Well they call it a shift. He goes at 4:30 pm and gets off at 6:00 am. It will be a 4 day week thing (Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs). The way I figure that's 52 hours. Hopefully taxes won't kill us and there needs to be a serious raise in there somewhere.

Any way went to Walmart to load him up on food and snacks. Certainly won't be able to go many places to get food and they really only get 30 minutes for a meal break.

He works for a big sign manufacturer. They do all the signs for CVS, Walgreens, Chase and more. Really, really big signs. He does the electrical, reads the blue prints, figures materials and such. I guess anything that needs doing. Kind of like putting together a really big jigsaw puzzle.

We actually met when we were both working at a sign company. He was of course in the shop. I was assistant to the VP. Any way our group did all the permitting and survey work for the company. For example when Bank of America buys a bank we send teams out to where ever all the branches (all over the US) are and take measurements and pictures of EVERYTHING so we can change it all out. Then we had to get the appropriate permits for each jurisdiction for the signage and see what's allowed and such. Was sometimes a BIG pain depending on the area.

Typically a change out happpens over a long weekend. On Friday it was NationsBank, on Tuesday morning they were all Bank of America. It was very stressful, but very amazing when it all came together.

just got off the phone with the bank, they dont know where it came from, but there was just a phone number listed on the charge, so i called that, talked to "the customer service department", and a lady cancelled my "account" and said that my money will be refunded and gave me a cancellation number. She would not tell me what company this was from. Sooo I called the bank and I have to wait to see if that money will actually be refunded before they can persue it. GAY.

Other than that its nice and sunny here.
