Pulled

I think I pulled a muscle where one of my ribs meets my sternum.  And I think I did it when I was coughing.  It really hurts.  I think I'll go make an appointment tomorrow to get some allergy medicine or something.  The dust around here is awful.  We always seem to thave the threat of rain, but it never rains for more than one minute.

Today was a nice laid back day.  I had my vacation paperwork sitting on my desk when I got back.  It was denied for some b.s. reason.  Chip and Spence were pretty upset with HR.  We (Chip, Spence, and I) have a gentlemen's agreement that instead of me taking my vacation days, I'll just take a series of half days over the next few weeks.  That kind of suits me better because I really didn't want to fly to San Antonio where the temperature is a hundred and twenty eight degrees during the day.  They might have more amenities, but I'm happy with what little we have here.

We burned our trash this afternoon.  I think we're about to change the time of the trash burn back to evening – kind of like we did a few weeks ago.  It's getting too hot in the afternoon to stand by a burn barrel. 

I can't remember anything at all that really stands out about work today.  Heather, one of the women that I used to work with in Boston sent cookies and pistachios.  They came in the mail today.  I'm sure I did work, I just don't remember any of it.  I went to church and I liked the service.   I need to reboot my brain.
