Get Your _____ On.

My last two days...In Reverse

Past out on the couch watching National Geographic. Walked around the backyard some. Looked at the goats. Talked to Kristin for a couple minutes. Watched Wednesdays episode of Lost on my computer. Drove home. Put second coat of warm sunshine yellow paint on Rachels wall. Ate Burrito with Jordan. Drove to Burrito Bandito. Drove to the Cookie Jar. Drove to Yaks. Put first coat of warm sunshine yellow paint on Rachels wall. Sat around with Rachel. Put second coat of primer on Rachels wall. Filed for unemployment online. Drove to Rachels house. Took shower. Drove home. Got laid off from my job. Worked (cleaned trucks, a tractor, sat around). Drove to work. Took shower. Rolled out of bed at 4:50 am.
Sleepy sleep. Drove home. Drove Kristin home. Walked across the sundial bridge, and back. Picked Kristin up. Devoured dessert.

Get Your Graffiti On.

Did I blog for new years eve? I can't remember, not important.

Michael, Bibiana, Jennifer and I went to San Francisco for new years eve. On Hiaght St, there is an alley next to Amoeba covered with graffiti. Michael and I stopped and took many pictures of the alley. I finally got around to doing something with those pictures. I made a panorama of one side of the wall and decided it was a little hard to present the picture that way. Therefore, I placed the panoramic image at the bottom and took a chunk out to present to everyone. Just click the image to enlarge it. Please enjoy. Peace and Love.

Get Your Employment On.

This will tell you what Joe did at work today on the 18th of March 2009...

I woke up at 6, after little sleep because my roommate this week snores bad. I'm in Oakdale and I packed my clothes and little bit of food I had. I was told we would be done in Oakdale today and would drive to Sacramento to work on a job there. I ate a yogurt with some raspberries and drove to the South San Joaquin Irrigation District (SSJID). I got there at 7. The big boss, and I mean big, didn't show up until 8 so I slept in the truck. Here is a picture of our solar system at SSJID.


Okay, check out this next picture and imagine a structure like the purple arrow is pointing at placed where the purple box is. Also, imagine twelve more rows in the red box, looking kind of like where the red arrow is pointing. This is what we are trying to finish. Today is the day PG&E hooked up all their wires at the green arrow so we can turn the system on. The blue lines are some of my walking paths in the morning before my first task of the day. I spent a lot of time where the blue arrow is pointing in the morning too. Anyhow, my first task of the day was very hard (this sentence is meant to be sarcastic). I was at the blue arrow and got a call to go to the green arrow to see my big boss. I got to the green arrow and was told to go buy two dozen donuts and some copenhagen, ha! So, I took the yellow path into Oakdale and bought things. Upon my return from the yellow path, I was told to go back to the solar field, so I did. I spent a whole lot of time sitting in a truck at the orange arrow before lunch and much more time at the blue arrow. Lunch time came and I was called to the green arrow again for pizza. I spent about four hours after lunch just standing, literally standing there at the green arrow. Fourty five minutes left of work, work... We flipped some switches, turned on the breakers, watched some solar modules tilt towards the sun and left.


Now I'm back in my hotel room, the one I tried to leave this morning. This is me sitting on my bed with nothing to do.


I want to complain so badly about my day but I have absolutely no reason to. I made thirty seven dollars an hour today and didn't break a sweat. It was just a long day of doing nothing. This blog entry was meant for me to entertain myself and it worked! I hope everyone is having a fab week!

Get Your Pizza On.

I got a crack in my windshield last Saturday, the 7th. It started spreading on Tuesday, the 10th. I wrote the times it spread during my wait, and I really found myself waiting. I was sort of excited to see how far it would reach before I got the windshield replaced. It got me thinking how often we are just waiting for things. I'm waiting for an answer from Soonchunhyang. I'm waiting for this year to be over. I wait for a friend to come see me. I wait for my water to heat up. We wait for these things that get us excited and can't do a darn thing about it. I don't want to wait any longer for this response. I'm trying to not get too excited but it's hard. I can't do anything, so I wait... What are you waiting for?


TJ, Nikki, Kristin and I went to Chico on Tuesday, the 10th.



We ate at Woodstocks and listened to music for the singer songwriter competition. The pizza was wonderful and the music was really enjoyable, most of it.


Michael played two songs he wrote. He messed up a little on his first song but played amazing overall. Good job Michael, I had a great time!



Here's a picture Kristin shot of Michael and I. I like it. Actually, I like a lot of the pictures from that night but can't put them all on here.


Peace and Love...
