Words of the Irish

School days over, come on then John,
Time to be getting your pit boots on,
On with your sark and moleskin trousers,
It's time you were on your way,
Time you were learning the pit man's job
And earning the pit man's pay.

Come on then Jim, it's time to go,
Time you were working down below,
Time to be handling a pick and shovel,
You start at the pits today,
Time you were learning the collier's job
And earning the collier's pay.

Come on then Dai, it's almost light,
Time you were off to the anthracite,
The morning mist is on the valley,
It's time you were on your way,
Time you were learning the miner's job
And earning the miner's pay

School days over, come on then John,
Time to be getting your pit boots on,
On with your sark and moleskin trousers,
It's time you were on your way,
Time you were learning the pit man's job
And earning the pit man's pay.

Lots of positive pending.

This month has been scarce with posts, so lets try and catch up a bit.

I recently came back from my second Vegas trip of the year, but this time it was with the family.  My responsibilities this time around required more sobriety and patience, since my main job was to babysit my four nieces and nephews. Went bowling, animal watching, arcade farming, street shows hopping, and McDonald's grubbing.  It wasn't as bad as I had anticipated, although I would've preferred to be at home instead.


It was also Marty's birthday celebration last Friday night.  Due to the Vegas trip, I was limited to the length of time I can stay at 2nd Ave. in Upland.  That bar has a really good deal for birthday parties, which I still don't understand why they offer that, haha.  Drinks after drinks were being purchased for the boy and it seemed like he was having a good time before I left.

Lawrence came back home this weekend as well, but it wasn't until yesterday that I we finally met up.  It feels much more different this time around since we don't have a limited time to hang out.  There's a good chance that he might be moving in at my house, that should be intense if it does indeed happen, haha.

As for work, Think Together is slowly coming to an end for me.  Hopefully everything works out next week.  If so, I'll be putting in my two weeks and move on, :/.

Harassment

This might be the first time in a long while where I actually feel uncomfortable at work.  We've had a new supervisor fill in for the past month since Natalie had to go into surgery, resulting with a medical leave.  This new SC can be very energetic, which is a good quality to have to be an Site Coordinator.  However, she can also be very annoying as a coworker, especially if she has feelings towards you.  The way she flirts isn't even adorable, it's towards the obnoxious side.  She finds the most inappropriate times to tell me about her love life, and how lonely she is.  She often asks me to accompany her to random places after work, but I consistently refuse.  It's at the point where I don't even want to be alone with her because its a guarantee that she will create some awkwardness.  The only responses I ever give back from those flirtations were a simple laugh followed by a shrug.  I never thought I would complain about sexual harassment upon myself, but here it is folks.  It's awkwardly frightening.

Beverino and Moscato

Those are the two of the few drinks in which I actually enjoyed at the wine tasting yesterday.  Thanks to Briamy for letting Marty and I accompany them on their anniversary celebration.  Despite the freezing weather, the location was beautiful and relaxing.  I still haven't acquired that taste for wine yet, but this was surely a good experience.

On a side note, I have decided to start up the DWP again!  It has been nearly two years since we had that one jam session, but I think its time that we continue where we left off.  I need to work out a weekly set meeting around everyone's busy schedule, but I am excited to start this up again.

Attractiveness

I find women that are independent to be extremely attractive.
