well, I think the interview went well yesterday -
longer than I expected!! I was told about an hour
and a half and it took 2 hours and 10 minutes..
I'm hoping that's a good sign.. mostly - I really
want the chance to prove what I can do!!

I hope you get your chance, good luck.

A few days ago I mentioned dream I had about a 1958 Corvette and Mrs Xue just laughed at me when I told her we now have to buy one.

Yesterday Mrs Xue told me that if I want one I can find one and restore it, when I get closer to retirement.... said the same thing about an old Harley Davidson I was teasing her about too..... I'm thinking she forgot I was a mechanic in my youth..and that massive toolbox in our garage is simply my tool collection......she did not know me then so maybe she thinks I made it up...:D I also do not think she realizes a Corvette in the models I like; 1955 to 1967, even in need of restoration, could go for $40,000.

Had odd weather today - high was about 70F (21C), with low humidity. Very low for this time of year. Had to fire up the chimnea to have dinner outside tonight. Then sat around with Mrs. K and drank whiskey and talked for a while before we came in. Nice evening.

Today was the hottest, humid, stickiest day I remember here. At least at sea level where I work. Just nasty, rash weather.

Oh, and Hudson Valley emailed to ask if I was okay with doing the class on October 5, 12, and 19.

Just listened to an episode of the now defunct radio show Beyond the Wall of Sleep.

First song: the Cure, "100 Years."

Oddly enough, that is how long this day feels!

May have found a place to get things like old Corvettes and old Harleys, that need restoration.... Mrs Xue knows not what she has done.... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Geez, man, and I can get in trouble for going to Wing Chun class "too much!" My girlfriend should consider herself lucky!

Winding down the day, laughing at several humorous texts from my ex-wife's new boyfriend. I love the technology tough guys!
