I continue to go to work everyday with the promise of backpay but
thankfully I have been able to postpone most of my bills until I start
getting paid again. Work is harder now as I do not have the support staff
I used to and I may end up missing the first two days of TCR as I cant take
leave currently as I am a critical employee of the government.

I'm a federal agent under DHS in one of the most controversial and scorned
agencies in the country.

I'll see your DHS and raise you a BLM (but only for those living in the 11
western states, almost nobody else knows who we are.)

If you're going to go Netflix, better do it in a hurry. I read today that
they're about to go down the tubes.

We had a grotto outing to see this in the theater. If you missed it, especially
in 3D, here's another chance:
Film Screening: Cave of Forgotten Dreams
Tuesday, November 19, 6:30 p.m.
In 1994, scientists discovered a cave in the south of France perfectly
preserved for over 20,000 years and containing the earliest known human
paintings.
Take a glimpse inside the Chauvet Cave in this spectacular 3D documentary by
Werner Herzog. Since this cave is not open to the public, the film offers the
only way to view this marvelous site.

I don't know if it was jealousy or envy, but I felt the urge to join my
ladder falling friends tonight.
As hard as I tried, I could not get hospitalized.
I did in style though, and would have scored a ten, had the judges been
there.
It is probably my imagination, but in that micro-second that I was
airborne, my brain had time to say to itself, "you got to be frickin
kidding me."
The moral to the story is,
There is really a reason not to stand on that top step.
And,
for once I can say, "my fat posterior came in handy," as it took the brunt
of the fall.
