Love them zombie books.  I’m currently listening to the Dead series by TW Brown, Volume 6.  It makes my commute, as short as it is, enjoyable.  I don’t know what I like about these books but I certainly find them entertaining.   Its kind of weird, I never would have listened to them 5 years ago.  As it turns out, JD Edwards One World also has them as part of their programming which intimates that its a known issue.  Not that they are a wanted process, but when things go awry, zombie processes can exist on the server divorced from the kernel processes leaving reports in a processing state but really ended.  Effing’ audit season is almost here at the company.  I hate audit.

On Monday we joined the health club, my wife is still going to occupational therapy (OT).  It’s still a month before she gets to start physical therapy (PT) for her neck.  So we are going to try and get there and do some basic stuff, just to get in a groove.  Kind of funny, now I am limited on time and very busy with everything.  Before, when all I had was time, I wasn’t a member yet.  I wonder how school is going for the kids?  Maybe on Sunday, I can take them out for lunch or something just to get caught up.  Ill have to give them a call.  My sister-in-law the other day is bitching because her ex husband is being reasonable – that’s a switch.  She is wary.  She probably should be and should have her guard up but don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.  Just accept it and move on.  The basement is still a long way from completion but is becoming organized.  To quote my old therapist: “Inch by inch… life’s a cinch.  Yard by yard, life is hard”.  Yea, I know he quoted someone also, but wisdom is easily passed that way.

Life has kind of been weird lately.  I feel like I’m under a ton of stress at work.  Sometimes I don’t understand people.  I’ve done almost everything I’ve been asked to do and it is still not enough.  Part of it is me I know, but part of its not me also.  I have never said no to anything here except once, and I feel like its coming back to bite me in the ass.  I’m trying to figure out if this place is the place I want to retire from or not.  I love my boss however he and I do not communicate well.  That is a blessing and a curse.  In good times it has served me well (95%), but when the going gets tough it has not been pretty (5%).  I guess that if that analysis holds after I sleep on it, it is definitely a pro for my job.  Sounds like I’m whining.  Boo-hoo 5% but I’m the one that has to live with it.
