Good evening kids....

guess what all, we have a new reader, my cousin Kimbo, WELCOME TO MY WORLD KIMBO!!!!!!

great to have a new reader..

welp, on to the rotten and not so rotten stuff... first, as i told everyone, and as my luck goes all the time, i am unable to get my vehicle, so no mustang in my future it looks like....

and my rented laptop took a dump on me, i had been having problems with it charging for the last week or so, and had mentioned it to the rental place on the last two payment dates, so saturday i told them i wanted it fixed, or want a new one, and guess what, no dice, so i was told by them that i would get a call as soon as they could find me a loaner, well, i got it home and installed my new cellular internet access card in it, and after a little while it just shut off, no display at all, lots of pretty lights, but lights dont help me if i cant see anything, so... chrissy and myself went to best buy, and by george, we filled out a credit app to get a new laptop, and was denied, so by golly we just outright bought the darn thing, and this is one SWEET laptop, a new gateway (i used to not care much for the old gateways, but i think they are about as good as anyone else anymore, but dont tell chrissy), anyway, i got her all set up today and last night, and it works really well, and i REALLY like the widescreen display, i am glad chrissy chose the gateway instead of the toshiba i had looked at...

so, anyway, the rented laptop and rented camcorder are going back tomorrow, if i cant get service as promised then they get none of my money!!!!

anyway, i am supposed to get my new work truck brought to midland next week, so maybe soon i will be out of rufus and into "redbull", a red condo sleeper volvo, with a 500 horsepower detroit series 60 engine, this thing is nice from what little i have got to play with it on my two visits to it....

bout all the new news i have for now.....

see ya later kids!

welp, its time.....

ok Ken fans, check this out, so me and chrissy go out on the town tonight, and i decide to run to see our friend at the used car place, and low and behold i find my car, now, as most of you know, ken has wanted a mustange for a long time, but really didnt care that much for cars, till he set in this baby..... http://autos.cbs7kosa.com/Autos/loadfullpics.asp?ID=554

now, open that link and you will see the car i am going to TRY to get next week...., i hope i can swing it, .. i think with chrissy's help i can swing it, payments will not be a problem, might be a problem with buying toys for ..oh, say.. 70 months, but hell, least i will have a good little car.... you guys and girls keep your fingers crossed!!!!

see you kids next week, hopefully from the pilots seat of a new mustange, or maybe a mitsubishi spyder....

later all, have a great day, and a better tomorrow!

Good Morning World....

welp, here we are again in bloger world, and welcome again to my ranting page...

well, i finally did it, i filled up my xm-radio family plan, i got one of the neet delphy roady xt, this thing is tiny, and has a lot of really col features, i think i like it even better than my jensen i put in the big truck, dont have as much info on screen as the jensen, but it has really neat back light colors, and i think the fm-modulator sounds even better, and seems to have a little stronger transmitter, so now i have an xm for james, chrissy, my pickup, my shop and my big truck... what do you think guys, you think i am xm- crazy?

lets see, the first is $9.99 a month, and each of the others are $6.99 a month.. thats what about $37.95 a month.... hahahahaha, but what better way to blow $40 bucks a month... oh, and i also got a new sony handycam, 8mm digital cam-corder, but its only rented, like my laptop.. thank goodness for rent-a-center, now i have a decent laptop, and cam-corder, and a washer and dryer... and at $80 bucks a week that shit better be fun... probably going to play with the cam for a few week then take it back though... and probably going to cut off at least one of the xm's, chrissy didnt really sound enthused when i told her i had gotten a cam and a new xm... but heck, long as my job holds out i can EASILY afford it....lets figure this up real quick....ok, rentals come to about $80 bucks a week, 4 weeks in the month, thats about $320 a month, and $37.50 a month for everyones xm.. brings me to $357.50... sounds like a lot.. but you figure i make around $800 to $1000 gross every week, thats about 900 average, over 4 weeks is what.. bout $3600 a month(oh shit, thats over $40,000 a year!!!)... now, i have $3600 minus the $357.50, and minus the $360.00 for child support.. thats $2882.50... and take out taxes, thats still leaves me with a decent little chunk of change to go to harbor freight with... hahahahahahahahah.... REMEMBER.. this is "Ken's WAY OF THE WORLD" not yours, i dont have to be reasonable or make any inkling of logic.. so after taxes and shit i probably clear over 2 g's a month or so... so i think i can afford a car payment up to about another $350 or $400 a month.. dont you?

sounds like its time for ken to start looking at new vehicles... hehehehe.... mustang may have to be in my future... can you carry a bunch of tools in a mustang?

dont know yet but might be fun to find out.... maybe i better stick with a pickup, and just get one with a bigger cab, and an automatic tranny... ha!

have a great day everyone, see you kids next time!

here we are again....

hi Ken fans, long time for updates... there has been a lot happen since my last update, first is that i am the only tanker driver with my company now, the others are eather burned, or ill with some sort of problem, the one guy, we will call him will, not his real name, got burned over 13% of his body in a flash fire while cleaning out a heater treater, and the other guy, we will call hum bugsy, cause he looks like an old school mobster, on thanksgiving day he was found passed out in his truck on a drilling site, and stayed in the I.C.U. for several weeks before they could get him awake, and he will probably never drive a truck again....

i got one of my "friends" down here that i went to truck driving school with his name is Robert Dimon, and he turned out to be a very slow worker, and a very dangerous driver, he knew nothing and cared nothing about taking care of the equipment at all...." if i break it he will just buy another one" was his point of view on most everything, so after spending money to get him to Odessa, and carting his ass back and forth to work, and feeding, housing, and supporting him for two weeks, he finally lost his job because he could not take care of the equipment properly, and he spend almost 2 weeks learning a job it took me 2 days to learn.. so, if Robert ever tries to get a job driving a truck where you are....well, BE CAREFUL!

on the lighter side i had a great christmas, got lots of cool stuff, and had enough money to be able to give a little to my big bro and his family, i sure wish i could have given him more.. he has done so much for me....
and i gave chrissy a really nice watch, it was not what i had ordered her, i have still not gotten the ordered items in yet, i think the lady i ordered it from may have just taken my money, almost 200 bucks, it was a very beautiful set of diamond ear rings for chrissy, but i got her a purple face watch, her fav coler, with only one diamond on the face, it sure looks good on her, i hope she likes it, it pailes in comparison to what she get me... man, i made a haul... hahahahaha.. i got a set of 1-inch sockets for my really big impact wrench, an auto darkening welding helmet, that has made welding fun again... it is really cool, it had blue flames on it, and to top it all off i got a $50.00 gift card to Harbor freight, HTTP://WWW.HARBORFREIGHT.COM
and got me a 14 inch cutoff saw i had been looking at... james got me and chrissy a web cam, mine is really fancy, it will track you around the room, and it has little addons to your pic like on yahoo messenger you can add things like glasses, and horns and you can amke yourself an avatar, and it will make the avatar move with your movements.. its really cool, but i think chriss' we cam has an actual better picture than mine!!!!

on the sad side of things.. i have not gotten to see brian at all for christmas, so i am debating the possibility of opening up a can of worms by filing against brian's mother....

but anyway, long work hours comming up again this week, with me being the only water hauler its gonna be a long few weeks, no rigs or frack this week, but it is gonna hit me hard next week for sure... one of those take the bed roll weeks!!!

see you kids after that!!!

alone again, and hurt to top it off...

hi kids, nice to have you back, i have been a bad blogger and not update since that really dumb stuff about my inner child, well, my inner child is lonely, yea, i have people around me from time to time, but i get up in the morning, and i am alone because chrissy didnt get in till really late, and she sleeps all the time, i am alone at work most of the time, i would say probably 95% of the time, and when i finally get my work done, alone again at home, and i go to bed alone every night, no matter if i work the next day or not....

now, dont get me wrong kids, i dont really like to be the life of the party, and i get to spend a little time with my big bro, not as often as i would like, but at least i talk to him on the phone almost every day,
i am just tired of being alone... i was working on a winch mount for my pickup and i was saying to myself, out loud mind you, "man, do you realise ken, you dont have ANY friends",
if i had a friend maybe they would have been helping me, or just hangin out drinkin a coke... but nope, i am destin to be alone i guess most of the time, its so lonley, now i know what brian must feel, and i know this feeling, it comes from a long, and i thought, lost time, of my youth, when i was a little kid i used to make club houses, just big enough for me, cause there was no one there to share it with, and in my little garage i look to be doing the same thing, my entire life is geared toward one person, me, and only me, others go to buy cars so the family can go with them, myself, i buy a car because i can haul MY stuff around in it....and unlike when i had a gaggle of friends at one time, i will not buy a friendship any more.... i think thats when i lost my "friends" well, fuck them, thats not a friend that takes advantage of you, just because they need something you have....

and i am recovering well from my fall, i was really worried for a few days there, i had a nasty fall off a set of stairs at geronimo 15 well site around the first or so of november, i got to ride in the carestar helicopter from the well site to medical center hospital, nothing was broke but it sure made me beat up and bruised, i have not told anyone yet that my right foot and toes are still tingling, but the soreness in my lower back is almost gone, and the pain in my upper back and shoulder area is slowly fading, time heals wounds, and i really dont want to go through the shit i did with my foot, my right arm is still bruised and has a bump on it still, and the bruise on my left leg is fading, so i am healing fine.....as i tell everyone that cares, i am always fine.... my left foot hurts so bad in the mornings that i can hardly stand it, and now i have back and shoulder pain to go with it, i am just getting old i guess.....

oh well, life goes on, my sinuses are about to get to me today, i was out cleaning up my little work area last night and stirred up a lot of dust, and was back at it this morning... man, i never realised it but i have a LOT of tools, and a lot of really neet stuff to, too bad no one ever has time to just hang with me, but thats cool, i still have the stuff, and you know what they say, he who dies with the most toys....WINS!!!

OH..OH..OH... almost forgot to tell you kids.. guess what my big brother did... he is such a great big bro... he gave me a super cool pistol, its a ruger super blackhawk, in 44 magnum, man, its really cool, i dont normally care that much for single actions, but this pistol is really nice, and since it came from my big bro, it means the world to me... i could not believe it when he gave it to me, i almost wet my pants... now, dont get me wrong, i have a lot of other guns, but i think this one means more to me than any gun i have ever had... mom had one just like it a long time ago, and i guess with mom having one, and my big brother giving me this one... maybe thats the bond.... heck i dont know.. but i do know that me and brian have matching guns now, a daddy gun and a brian size gun.... James is soooooo cool, i wish he could be more happy in his life...., man, i tell ya, if i ever were to win the lottor thats one person that would never have to worry about money again, and i would do EVERYTHING with my big bro, we really had fun going to like dayton air museum, and to gun shows and stuff like that....we could have a lot of fun....

well, kids, my hand is starting to hurt a lot from typing so much, so i think i will go outside for a while... back to the dirty shed!!!

hahahaha, you kids have a great day, and see ya down the blogger-sphere!!!

my inner child is pissed!

ok, so my wife has an inner child on her blog thats like sad and stuff, so i take this test, and guess what kids...... thats right......

Your Inner Child Is Angry

You're not an angry person. But when you don't get your way, watch out. Like a very manipulative kid, you will get what you want. Even if it takes a little kicking and screaming.

How Is Your Inner Child?

Here i am again....

welp kids, i have a few weeks back with lenorah operators, i cant believe this, its payday today and i am going in at 1pm, cause the boss had to go to a funeral around noon, so him and his bro caught things up till later on, wonder if this will be a 12 to 16 hour day today,... hhhmmm.... oh well, least i didnt have to go in at 7 am this morning, and thats always a good thing... not much new to report, all my bunnies are gone from the different well sites, and there is a lot of new well sites, man, i tell you guys, we are hopping, jw-9, ct-39, and holzgraf-34 are over double the production of lease (brine) water now, and the new ct-35#6 is starting to fill up on the drilling pit, man, i just cant believe how the oil-field is running almost out of control, you know, i was just a kid when the last boom happenend, and talking to some of the old timers, they report it happened a lot like this, as soon as the money starts flowing the drilling companies get all they can as fast as they can..... i just wish i could make more money like all the others in this industry....

oh well, take care kids, and have a great day!!!

i cant believe it...

welp, news on the home front finds me getting ready to go back with lenorah operators in the morning, they beat out the swimming pool place on the pay scale, and especially in the hours field, having been off for like 5 days because of a truck breakdown, i had to find something where i can at least have a decent paycheck on a regular basis, it is more work, but i think at 190 pounds that will not do me any harm, i need the exercise.... and i think it does me a little better to work a bit, and its really cool driving a big truck down some of the bumpiest roads in west texas...... i know brian hada lot of fun with it, so i am getting rufus back in the morning, and a raise from what i was making last time....

so, stand by ken fans, more updates to let you guys know how things are going, gonna be a few days to get back in the swing of things, but i bet it will be the same as it was before, long hours, and big paychecks!!!!

later kids!!!

On The Road Again....

welp ken fans, after a really great trip to arkansas last week, and a rush trip to florida, leaving just in time for Katrina to destry the crap out of all the cool coastal rodas, i am haeded to the dreaded, and miserable place of flint michigan tomorrow, i swore when i left michigan last time i would never enter michigan in a truck again.... and now i am taking an over-size load and heading there via oklahoma!


so, you kids be kind, and let your helping thoughts go out to all those displaced by ANY factor, not just Katrina, but think about all those people that have lived with no home for a lot longer than the hurricane victims, every morning i go to work i see a guy that is homeless, he lives under a bridge at interstate 20, with his 3 dogs, and where is the help for him... anyway, there are a lot of people out there that could use some help, not just those that get on tv shouting "where is our help" and taking shots at those trying to help them....

have fun all, see you kids when i get back, and to my family, i love you all, and had a great weekend with you all, and especially my big bro he fixed his famous porkchops, man, you talk about some good grub, that boy can cook now!!!!.....,chrissy, and my little brian, i love you both, and keep up the good work in school boo!!!!!!

ok, i can buy that.... for a dollar...

ok, so i am looking around at my wonderful spouces blog at http://www.mycase.blogspot.com/

and see this silly thing she has... a little test.... http://www.liquidgeneration.com/quiz/johnhughes_quiz.asp

so i click on the link, and it tells me....

http://www.liquidgeneration.com/quiz/images/clark.jpgTo link it (the actual code):



man, what a week, to florida and back, 3006 miles in 5 days, i took a 16 foot wide by about 50 foot long swimming pool to zephyrhills florida, and came back empty... too damn tired to tell all about the trip, but it was not a bad one, little fun, little stormas (hurricane Katrina) but all-in-all it was a good trip....

see you guys next time...

Happy Birthday Mom.....

57 years ago today there was a little girl born, and it was my mom, she grew up with a loving family, and a really nice personality, then had a couple great kids, my brother James, and myself, we lost mom to cancer in feb of 2003, and today would have been her 57th b-day, so i am saying happy b-day mom, we miss you very, very much, james went to see mom today, and sent pictures of her grave, i had to work, but i will be going to see mom sunday....

and then off to florida monday, see you guys next friday or saturday....

welp, its over...

welp, i told you guys, my truck dream has now been completly crushed, no chance, no way.. no how... its gone, took a dump.. how ever you want to term it, its shot down in flames.

we tried to run some credit just to find out that the score really dont mean shit... its the history that REALLY matters.

oh well, the way my life has gone, thanks chrissy for trying to help me out, we just arent able to run with it, so maybe i will be hauling swimming pools wednesday, or be on my way to arkansas to run over the road, tomorrow by about noon will tell....

well, kids, i came up with another scheme, if i could produce bio-diesel at 70 cents per gallon, and sell it for like $1.15 a gallon, i could get a diesel vehicle and sell it delivered within like 50 miles real cheap.. and make some profit!

i am trying to engineer a way to make like 200 gallons or more a day, i know thats a tall order, but if i can get a job where i have a little free time it would be good cause i could make the containers out of steel, or maybe i should look into getting a few of the plastic tanks that are so prevelent around here, i know, its a stupid idea, i know... but hey, thats what keeps me dreaming and semi-sane, hey, everything else has been shot down on a regular basis, and this idea was shot to hell really quick...

maybe i should just let myself go off the deep end, and just run with it.... i dont think anyone would be surprised at this point.... i had a decent day today, but after my nap i woke up feeling really sad, much sadder than i am allowed to let on, but its ok.. i can bottle these emotions just like i have been, and its back to good old happy ken, but how long can a person bottle emotions before they go insane, does the bottle ever get full???

i guess we shall find out, i guess only time will tell in the long run.... least i have this blog where i can vent, oh, i guess i should not write shit like that in here eather, it will be thrown back in my face, as it has alreayd been..... so.. its all good, no problems here, just making up shit to write... I'M HAPPIER THAN A PIG IN SLOP, NO PROBLEMS AT ALL, i am not allowed to have any sad,bad,grouchy, or anything but happy feelings... when do i get to be me again....?

i guess someone will let me know... untill then its just business as usual.... happy ken, here to take care of anyones problems, whether its "ken i got screwed on a gps, do you have one?" to something as simple as doing fish stuff, to "ken, think you can help me find the guy that ran my brand new bike over?" here i am, just tell me what needs to be done....i am here for you all!!!!!

feeling more sad now than... oh well, enough .. i guess, i dont want to make anyone mad at me.....

good night all..... have a great one...

i'm kinda excited tonight.....

welp, i have had a much better day today than i have been having, just an example is that i went to hastings with chrissy and she got us a couple dvd's, hahaha, how cool are we, i got the muppet show and have been watching the muppets for the last few hours... and i am really excited about tomorrow, its official, i am going to try to get into the little 9 grand truck tomorrow, chriss and i were looking at some trucks today and came across an owner operator that has been driving on his own truck for over 20 years, and he explaned just exactly what it cost, but he also told how much money you can make, and i think it kinda put a light on the potential, just hauling gas he is making a very nice profit, plenty to pay his bills and pay his truck, i wont go into numbers cause someone might can hold it against me in some way, but lets just say it would be enough to get by on...but i had a great dream during my nap a bit ago about my having my truck and fixing it up real nice... it was a really cool dream, it usually means its not going to happen when i can remember my dreams, so dont be surprised tomorrow night when i get in here and let you all know i dint have the money for a down payment or something like that, but my dream is still alive tonight...

i got to see my big bro tonight and watched "rush hour" at his house for a little bit, and chrissy got to see maria's new car and new gun, and everyone seemed to be in a good mood, so it made me feel a bit better...i still cant talk big brother into wearing a turkey feather hat, like the one off the movie "a man called horse". and i have started to look for a vulture hat, like the medicine man off the same movie, but since james is the big chief we want him to get a turkey feather hat!.... hahahha, maria and i get a really big laugh at the thought of big bro in a turkey hat!!!!!

welp, i guess today is the last day of val's summer vacation, man, she is growing up really fast, i am so proud of her, she is getting to be a very interesting young lady, she is really smart, and i bet she is super cool at school, i remember being around girls like her in school, i was always a rebel so those girls alwys had much interest in me, so i am trying to keep the rebels out of the interest of val....i dont want her to have anything to do with a boy like i was, and thats for sure!!!

man, i cant believe this is her second year at junior high school, 4 more years left after this one... it just seems like it has not beel long enough....hahahahah, i am really proud of her, what a great kiddo!!!!


hey, all you readers dont forget, you can leave comments too, and i encourage you that read my rantings to please leave a comment, and let me know who all is around...

have a great night all!!!

why?

i am so sick of living like this, every time i try to get in a little happier mood, it just does not work, there is always someone there to make SURE i dont have that ability, something as simple as stapling up a small banner from my early childhood outside my radio room, and all that can be said is a gripe about the fact i used very small staples to tack it to the wall....... i am so sick of this shit, all the fucking time, all i wanted to do was to put up a little banner from my elementary school, it was so fragile, and worn out that it just fell to pieces when i took it down, the house has cracks the size of my ass crack in the walls and spider webs about to take over, and i cant even hang a small banner with 2 staples without griping... GOD DAMN i am so sick of this, i feel like i am in hell with just a little less heat...

my life needs an enema, maybe i can take a big life-shit if i am able to go out on the road.... i will miss my big brother so much though...

i was in such a good mood when my big brother came to see me this morning, he brought me word that i was missed at the gun store, and a 10 round magazine for my beloved 1911-a1 45 pistol......

how in the world am i ever going to be able to pay my big brother back for all he has done for me......oh well, if someone reads this i will probably have to hear about it, or they will act all weird toward me.... oh well... wall of voodoo is on the xm here in my room , the original "mexican radio" .. i love that song almost as much as i like murray head's one night in bangkok... so will let you guys get back to your life!

help, the ham radio bug has bitten... AGAIN!

as if buying guns and motorcycles was not enough, now i have been bitten by the ham radio bug again, my big brother gave me a yaesu ft-301sd 10 watt transceiver, its an oldie but seems to work fairly well, and i have been playing with that the last few days, i got my 80 meter dipole back up and functional, and got my big amplifier hooked back into the electricity again...
man, lets see, motorcycle racing, guns, remote control cars, remote boats, ham radio, guns, truck driving.... darn, where will this end?!?!!?

oh, speaking of truck driving, i found me a really good deal on a decent little rig that i like a lot, of all the trucks i have driven i probably like it about 2nd to the pete 379, but this little rig is only 9 grand, and the peterbuilt was $46,000, i went to my local dealer and drove the little truck around town for a bit, then ran it to midland and back, and really like how it runs, its an older truck, a 1994, but it is really strong.... you can check it out here...
http://www.truckpaper.com/listings/forsale/detail.asp?OHID=968701&dlr=1&guid=325040711FC0494A95F44C392B5FEB45

dont look like i am going to be able to get any help getting it, so it will probably go to some other owner, as with everything in my life for the last 15 years or so, but hey, i can dream about it, and no matter what they cant take that from me, it really makes me sad that i have looked all over and finally found a rig i can get a good start with, for a good price, and it winds up being so far out of reach.....

new cars, new toys, new everything around me and i cant get a piece of equipment i can actually make money with, how bout that for a kick in the ego.. i have even figured a way to pay for the little truck within a year or so, all i need is a little help getting into it, and getting things rolling, no pun intended... ha....ha, oh well, just wait, ,

every person i know is able to get new and workable vehicles, and i cant even get me a cheap old rig that will make some money... oh well, just wait, this kid may have a little surprise for this world soon....i am getting so fucking sick of all this shit, and i think it may be comming to a head soon..... but i will probably wimp out again, and just let things go as usual.....man, i wish i could be like i was when i was 19 yers old, but i guess as i have grown i worry about what everyone else wants me to do, instead of what i want to do.... it just seems like it causes so many problems with everyone around me when i want to do something, and when i get sad it seems to make it worse... everyone else is allowed to have feelings, and be mad, but i am expected to be there all the time, and be happy and cheerful, and solve the problems of the world around me... damn i wish mom was here....no one seems to want me to do over the road again, and wants me to find a job where i can work 8-5 and be off weekend, i would like that myself, but working for someone else i dont think thats going to happen, i really dont want to do otr again myself, because i dont want to be away from my family, my little guy, and my super cool niece val, and big bro, and chupacabra... and i guess i need to quit wanting anything cause every time i get sad chrissy starts in with her chest hurting and acts weird toward me... oh well, i will probably piss everyone off by writing this, but i dont have anyone that dont get mad at me to share my feelings with, hell, i dont have ANY friends anymore, no one accepts anyone i ever am friends with so i just gave up on that.....

ha, i was filling out a job application a few days ago, and it asked for 3 references that was not kin to me or people i work with, and i could not even come up with one... how is that for a dead-end life..... i guess my choice of friends has not been the best, but at least i was happy ever now and then, and i felt like i had a purpose, even if it was just to be taken advantage of by my "FRIENDS"..... oh well, i guess i am better off, but just not happy at all anymore, and i have no one to share my feelings with that wont get mad at me, or start acting weird and stand-off-ish... is that a word... hell, who cares.....

GROW UP KEN....


long as everyone around me is happy why should i have to be......

all i ever want to do is sleep anymore, and thats getting to be a problem too i think, maybe i just need a few days to myself......who am i kidding, i cant afford that....

night all!


anything i can do to make things better for any of you out there in internet land, just let me know.... i am always here for you.... with a smile and a helping hand!

news update for 7-30...... date line, odessa texas....

welp, for better or worse the company of lenorah operators is behind me, my truck was down for a week after i got released for work duty, and i just cant go on something like that, i had not been sleeping nights, or actually at all, with the worry about the company and its stability, its cool though, cause i had not enjoyed the job for a while, i stuck in it a lot longer than i actually expected, 3 monthes almost to the day, the new company i am going to work for is out of midland, and the job is hauling pipe from san-antonio/houston to midland, so it seems to be more driving and less... well... working, not sure if thats the best way to term that,

so we shall see how this little company is going to be, after J.B. Hunt i am gun-shy about changing jobs any more, and i sure hope this is going to be a really good place, i will work on monday and tuesday, off wednesday, and work thursday and friday, and off on weekends, so it a really neat schedule.......

but anyway, on the same day i got to go with my big bro and get my baby, so brian is in there still asleep, i have so much fun when my "boo" is here, i wish with all my might that he could be with me all the time, but i dont think i am ever going to be able to afford the lawyer to make that happen..... but thats ok.. bri-guy is 8 now, and i bet when he is 12 he will get up there like the big boy he is and tell that judge "i want to live with daddy!" and that would be the happiest time for me in my whole life!!!!

back to the little guy, i hear stirring sounds from his bedroom, so he might be getting up, see ya later guys!!!

Ken.

Thunder Birds are a GO!!!!!

welp, he did it, he has released me to get back into the world, the update is my foot will never be "normal" again, the tendon damage has caused my arch to not have any shape to it, so over the time it has gotten to where i will have pain in it all the time, not much they can do about it , they have a surgery where they just basically cut the tendon, but i really hope that dont have to happen....

guess what all, i ran into one of the guys i went to school in san-antonio with tonight for the first time in a long time, roger foster, he is back in big-spring, and not driving trucks, maybe he got smart and i havent yet, who can tell, it was really nice to hear from him again, i have lost touch with most of the guys from driving school....

so, not much more for tonight!!

good night all, and see you kids back on the road tuesday!!!!

one day to go!!!

well kids, its been a long ride but i think i can go back to work, the foot is feeling on the good side, a lot better than the first of the month for sure,still a lot of tight pulling when i stand on it for any length of time so i still have an amount of pain in there....
i have a dr. appt on the 21st, and i sure hope he tells me its not going to hurt me to go back to work, cause i am really running out of money now, with only 150 bucks last week, and 86 of that going to payments, its been really hard to live this past few weeks, and i really need to get back to making some money some how, i have been told by a few friends that i should file suit against the small crappy company i work for, but i just dont know, i was told by an attorney it would be in my best interest, but arent all attorneys just looking for that 32 percent?

do i really want to go back to driving for this guy???

i just cant decide, i have been with him for 3 months now, and no promises he made me initially have been fulfilled, not a single one, i am still on a vac truck, and still out in the heat for 12 to 14 hours each day, and still dealing with the oilfield spills, with no insurance, no uniforms, no new truck..... and aparently no way to pay for anything should i get hurt out there, kinda like working for myself only not making any money at it, maybe it would be better to find another place.... i just dont want to switch again, i have tried a few places that have made promises and not fullfilled them at all, and i am just tired of switching jobs, i want a place that will do what they say they will do, and just let me be a good employee, what i would really like to do is get my own rig, but no one around will give me any backing for it, i know i can make a good deal of money, i have even spent a few monthes building a business plan, so why wont anyone help me with this, hell, i help them with anything they want, no matter who it is or what they need, so, why cant i just get a little help getting me a truck, i mean, heck, i dont need the fanciest rig out there, just one that will get me by and not break down on me, people spend a lot more on an suv or even just a plane old car than what it would cost me to get into a truck, and when was the last time a 2 year old suburban made you $9000 in one week, well, i am here to tell you, i can pay off the 25 to 30,000 for a rig within one year, easy.. and if i could get the backing for a $50,000 rig i could have it paid for within 2 years, can you say the same about your cadillac escallade?? i didnt think so!!!

oh well, whining too much, and people get mad at me for that, but hell, thats what this was for, so i can whine and gripe and hopefully no one will get mad at me, hell, no one reads my rants anyway!

have a great night Ken fans, and a great day tomorrow!

i have pics of my babies!!!

i got some finally done, a pic of my babies for everyone to see!

load 'em up People!!!

welp, i have had a really good day today all, foot was feeling decent, thanks to about 15 excedrin and ibuprofen tablets, and i got to hang out with my big bro today, and get some loading done, i loaded about 575 44 rounds, some were loaded for my dear wife, they are 44 special rounds shooting the 240 grain econoblast full metal jacket bullet, at around 700 foot per second... the rest were 44 magnum, most were the same bullet i loaded for chrissy, but at a greatly increased velocity, pushing 240 grain bullets is a max load of winchester 296, so i am thinking i might get in the area of 1800fps out of my 6 inch dan wesson revolver, its gonna be a lot of fun to chrono it tomorrow at the range, i sure hope my hoof is feeling up to it, and i cant wait to get some pics of chrissy shooting this massive hand cannon.

hey, guess what all, i got my 45 yesterday and got a custom beavertail grip safety fit to it, and i hope to go get it started on the break-in cycle tomorrow as well....

welp, james did it tonight... he threw out the first offer of a trade for a list of my guns for his desert eagle.... man, i tell you what, i was TEMPTED BY THE DEAMONS, but i held..... and just kind of changed the subject, i'll get him though, some time i will figure out a good mutual trade that he will go for, man, i really want the pistol.....

i guess since he is intetrested in my lone eagle i will be keeping it until he comes up with a trade for it, i tell you, having a 30-06 pistol is really kick ass cool, but i have a lot more fun shooting a 44mag revolver, yea i know, you cant hit shit at 200 yards every time, but i just enjoy it more, no reason at all for that feeling, and i think i am really going to enjoy building my own 1911 45, i cant make up my mind if i want to build it for target shooting, combat, or speed time trials.. i am thinking about kind of a mixture, i have the grip safety i want, and i am looking at a couple match grade barrels, and i am really looking at an extended barrel with a built on/screwed on compensator, and i think i will go with a commander style skeletenised hammer, and a really smooth and sharp sear.....oh well, you kids dont want to hear about my dreams, i am sure something will come along to fuck them up..... but its cool right now to dream about.

oh, and guess what else happened today, that damn maria, my bro's spouse, got a new car, much to the grim face of big brother, its a ford escort sedan, i got to drive it when she brought it home, and i sure do like the way it drives, it has a little bitty engine but it seems to have a good amount of zip... and its my fav color for a car...white!!!

i think i still like chrissy's outlander better, but maria made a good choice, i sure hope it makes her a good car...
so maria and i got the radio presets done, and just hung around the car for a bit, you know how them mexicans are, just set around for no good reason...hahaha!
but it all made for a really good day, no pressure to do anything in any set time, and good family.... could have used a fresh coke though about 7 pm.. but thats cool....

welp, i think its time to run get a snack at 7-11 and check out all the weird people, shotgun at the ready!

see ya later kids, have a great night, and thank you for an awesome day big bro!!!

people and guns, ....

welp kids, the dear wife has gotten home safe and sound, after a trip to see her mom and bro in utah, a little history first....

she is not what you would call a "comfortable" driver, frankly she scares the hell out of me when i ride with her, a 600 miles trip with my wonderful bride would have me longing for illicit drugs, or gallons of alcohol, anyway, you get the idea now, so when she came up with the bright idea to go to utah, from our little ranch in texas...dont everyone have a ranch in texas???,,,,anyway, from our little shithole in texas, all the way to vernal utah, i was very concerned for the safety of the new little car...

oh yea, and my little bride too, hahaha, i tried everything i could to get off work to take her up there,but working for the shithead i do there was just no way i could swing it, now, i dont have any familly, friends or anything else in utah, so i didnt lose a damn thing up there, and really didnt want to go, cept maybe to go fishing and to see the dinosaur monument, and check on the mom-in-law,
i cant imagine what the hell the dino's were thinking when they died up there, that entire state is a shithole.... but dinosaurs are the only redeming thing about utah.... but by george my little wife made it up there and back in one piece, i was glad to get her back, no one to snuggle with or to feed me while she was gone! hahahaha! naw, it was not that bad, the dominoes pizza guy made some really fast deliveris to our house right before she got back though, he was very aware of where i was, just followed the trail of pizza crumbs i guess, ha!

oh,news on the gun front, i have sold my hi-point jhp poly frame 45, and c-9 poly frame 9mm, as well as my little ruger gp-100 in 357 magnum, but have traded for a dan wesson 44 magnum with custom target hammer, and custom target trigger, man, its like glass, and the trigger will scare you its so sensitive!

i have also now traded for a rock island arsenal custom 1911 in 45 acp,one of the last to be produced from the custom shop, its going out of business!!!!!
i got the 44 a few days ago, and me and big brother shot 400 rounds of 44 magnum yesterday after he got off of work,man, what a pair, my large frame 44 magnum six-gun, and james' 44 magnum semi-auto desert eagle, i think i got him in the accuracy department now, but he sure as hell has me in the kick-ass-cool-gun competition!

i hope i can afford my own desert eagle soon, i nearly vapor locked when james mentioned trading his off, my little mind started going crazy with what i could offer him in trade for it!!!!

i am probably going to sell my kick-ass-cool-gun, my magnum research "lone eagle" here in the next week or so, and replace it with a competitor brand of 30-06 pistol, competitor has made a lot of improvements on the lone eagle when they got it from magnum research, so i am looking into getting one in 30-06 and barrels in 223, and 458 winchester magnum!!!

i am hoping to get my new 45 tomorrow and take it out for a spin, if i can find the money to get some gas for the pickup, trading guns is fun, but damn i wish i could trade for some stinkin money!, i am still down in the foot, and it is very uncomfortable to walk or drive my little pickup, but i am not telling anyone, so... sssshhhhh... i am fine as always, hell, i am not bleeding, so i am fine!

maybe big bro and i can go play 45 and go fishing again, damned if he didnt catch like 6 or 7 fish after we went shooting, dont tell him, but he seems to be catching onto this fishing thing, he kicks ass at it... i have always been jelouse of my big bro, everything he does he does very well at, i am always just kind of marginal at everything i try, maybe i dont apply myself as much as he does, but i have fun anyway!!!!


have fun kids, yea, like anyone reads my ramblings.... be safe, and stay hard!

holy shit, of all the people!

hi kids, well, the foot feels like shit, hurts all the time since i went to 7-11 and gassed up the pickup, and got supper, a bag of bbq chips and a big-gulp, i sure miss my chrissy and her soft tacos!!!!
and i have slept till i am bed sore, and cant sleep anymore, so i ventured to my fav chat place to look over some freeky profiles on yahoo, well, in my search i decide to find people interested in fish, this after i feed my swarm of convict cichlids in my 29 gallon tank in my room,and the baby nemo's and other man eaters in the 55's in the living room...... so i do a search for profiles containing pictures and the key word "aquarium" and holy crap if i dont run into one of my wifes friends, melissa, a lady she used to work with at the paper that is teaching brats now, i think thats what she is doing anyway, so i said hi to her in an im and got a responce,no conversation, just a hi, whats been up kinda thing.... how weird is that, that she would be online while i am looking over freeky fish people....in texas... hahahahhaha! so, mel, where ever you might be, good to see ya on kiddo!

and now i am off to search for more freeks that cant sleep, excedrin is becoming a staple in my regular diet, maybe i should take up drinking, cant hardly stand to drive anyway..... FUCK YOU JERRY, YOU NO ACCOUNT BASTARD!
you know who you are, i aint gonna pay for this shit myself, asshole!

any good lawyers out there???

hurt and alone....

welp kids its been a while since my last blog input, because not much has changed, i am home on a hurt ankle that is progressing very slowly, i hurt it at work, stepped off the bottom step of the truck and into some soft caliche powder out at holzgraff-22 and there was a rock under the powder i didnt see, so....boink, i twisted my ankle, i think it would have been much worse if i had not had my over the ankle work boots on,
i went down fairly hard on my left hand and injured my left shoulder only slightly, hand and shoulder are doing fine, but the ankle is not in good shape at this point, went to the orthapedist (spelling?) this morning and they cant see me till my boss gets them the payment info they need, he also has yet to get hold of medical center hospital like he is supposed to, i am wondering if he has workers comp insurance, i am really getting concerned about this.... every time i try to talk to him he acts really pissed off at me because i went to the doc...or got hurt, not sure whitch yet...oh well, i guess thats why they have lawyers!
..and to top it all off, my lovely bride went to utah and left me here all alone!!!!!...wwwwwwaaaaa!!!!!

hopefully chrissy is having a lot of fun with her mom and brother, went with big bro shooting and just could not do worth a flip because of the ankle pain, it made the heat seem like it was much worse than it really was....
and i dont think big brother is having an easy time right now, he just seems like he is in a bad mood, maybe its his time of the month!...hahahaha!!!... sorry bro, couldnt help it... but i am really worried about my big brother, he in my only blood family left.... i am sure when i get back to normal and drag him for a day at the range he will be doing better!

welp, watching lance in the tour, today is a team time trial, i hope lance is doing good, i came in here and dont know how the team is doing so far, but i bet that little guy from texas is puttin some good oold fashion texas whoop-ass on the damn frenchmen!!


LIVE STRONG Lance!!!!

My Baby is here!!!

welp, it finally came together, and what a great day yesterday was, welp, lets start out by saying that i may be changing jobs soon, i got a call from my friends at "U.S.A. Truck", and have a job waiting for me when ever i decide to take it, i am signed up, authorized and ready to go!!!!!

well, the same day i found that out i hit my boss up for a few days off, whitch in his world is unheard of, and after two weeks with no day off i really needed it too... anyway, i called my little boo(my nickname for my son Brian) and he stated he wanted to come to dad's house, and that it had been a really long time, so it was off to the races, chrissy was going to be off friday, and by the grace of the powers that be i was going to find a way to see my kiddo, even if i had to quit my job, so i communitaed that to my boss, and he reluctantly agreed to let me off half a day friday, and sat and sunday, so off we went to sanangelo to pick up the little guy, with precious cargo in tow we headed back to odessa, it was a great trip back, with the little guys talking constantly it made me feel really good to have him back under my wing.....where he belongs!

in the process of getting back to town i got my paycheck cashed and we went for a ride on the go-carts, well, after making some runs with the little guy in front of me on the cart we decided to let him make a run or two by himself, so he did, and he was GREAT, he ran that cart like a pro, going in deep on the corners, and comming out fast and wide, just like his pop had instructed him to, then for a little breather we decided to make the mall, well, while walking in the mall we come apon a small shop that sells pocket bikes, and daddy gets the bright idea that brian might just be old enough for a new mini-pocket bike, and a few hundred dollars later we take his new bike to the car, with a grim look from chrissy.
i know this is gonna be rough... hahhahahahah, but i dont really care, as long as my little guy is having fun the rest dont matter...right now... so we go back in to the mall after putting the bike in the car, and we watch bat-man, well, dont waste your money, cause it sucked!!!!!!!

and home at midnight to get some sleep, come saturday morning brian and i are up and functional and off to get a new helmet, and see whats happening around town... maria passed her conceiled handgun class, with a 98 on the written and like a 130-ish on the shooting, we are so proud of her!!!!

so brian and i go back to the house for pizza with chrissy and a time to plot the rest of the day....so time comes to go to james' house to do some riding, we get there and they are not back yet, so with further instruction from me, brian is off and riding his new bike, and he does great!!!!!

after james gets home he has a b-day present for brian too, a desert eagle, just like uncle james', only plastic, that shoots little 6mm plastic bb's, so we all have a lot of fun shooting bb guns at james house, and maria is getting to shoot better, we have definatly created a monster!!!!

well, i cant believe this, i just lost a good half hour of typing with all the details of saturday, and what a great day brian and i had with uncle james and aunt maria, so i am not gonna retype it, cause i am too lazy!!!, hahahah..

have a great day kids!!!

ahhh, updates!!!

hello Ken Fans, i have been a bad blogger and not updated my stuff in a while, well, not much has gone on really, i finally got a really cool gun again, its a magnum research lone eagle, in the old 30-06 cart, man, i tell you, between james' magnum research babie, the BFR and the desert eagle, and my lone eagle, we are like a commercial for magnum research, now my list of toys goes from a highpoint carbine, marlin .22 to the lone eagle, even picked me up a little "brian gun" a .22 longrifle german made rg-14 pistol.

not much happening on the work front, just cleaning up spills from thoughtless oil companies, oh, one update for you guys, the momma bob-cat has moved the babies to a field about 3/4 of a mile from where they were, and it was reported to me that the babies are growing really fast, i have no way to 4-wheel out to where they were spotted so no way to tell or update on a regular basis.


welp, i got up this morning just before 10 am, got my paycheck cashed, and went to see my lone eagle in the gun-hospital, where it was getting a simmons 2 to 6 power scope put on, and man, it sure is pretty, low profile heavy duty rings, and it is all ready to get-er-done, hopefully me and big brother can go site it in tomorrow, i got some new bullets, the sierra 150 grain boat tail full metal jacket, so i think i will have some good loads to group it with after i use the cheap stuff to site it in with.

one other update, the bunny at geronimo 15 site has had babies, she made her a little den under the well tank steps, and myself and another truck driver have been leaving little snacks for her on a regular basis, and her babies are little pink things, i didnt know that rabbits would breed really while its so hot out side, but i guess it didnt make much diff to her, so she is doing fine, i thought i might get some rabbit pellets and put a little out for her when i get water off the well site, we are having to get saltwater(or waste water) 2 times a day now, so i get to visit with her fairly often.

well, talked to my big bro this morning and he stated he is not feeling well, could be the dreaded summer cold, so i am kinda worried about that, he has been working some really late hours and i kinda wondered if it might catch up with him, he is just not used to that...... gettin old big bro! (HA)

ok kids, chrissy is just about ready to go to the movie, and after she goes to work its gonna be time to go to big brothers house to check on him and do some reloading, gotta load a few hundred 357 for tomorrow, and load up my 150 grain 30-06 bullets, so i am gonna be busy as a hen this afternoon... so much for a day off! hahahah, i guess the boss figured out that after a week of between 14 and 19 hours he better give me a few days break... so its weekend off for ken....

have a great time kids, and see you all on the next trip!!

another day, another little bitty paycheck

welp kids, today was payday at my new work, i cant believe it, already over a week, this is amazing, and the shortest day was 9 hours, so the last two days i have brought my truck home, and my buddy david came over and we put a new stereo speaker in and put my xm satellite radio in it yesterday, so i got to listen to the trucker channel while hauling water today, this was a really boring day at work, all busy, no time to myself today, and too much traffic at the site for any of the little critters to be out, so i called it a day around 5 pm, and got back to the shop to pick up my paycheck, i had grand plans for this paycheck, you know the kind of plans you get, a new washer, paying off my pickup totally, going in halfsies with big bro on a new gun, you know, the fun stuff, well as i am pulling away from the shop i look at my "BIG" check, and it only has 3 days from last week on it, 34 hours in 3 days, so it was like 300 bucks,

i was very upset at this, and plan to find out what the hell, well, i get back to odessa and attempt to cash my first paycheck, and all be damed if no check cashing places on my way from the east side of odessa to the west side will cash a hand written payroll check, so in desperation i take it all the way across town, where i usually cash my checks, and low and behold its all good with them guys!!
lesson learned, dont mess with the big cashing places, go to the little guys that actually say hi when you come in, dont worry about convenience.

so, i have a little bit of money in hand now, hopefully it will be enough to drive back and forth every damn day to midland, man, i really HATE the drive to work in the morning, and with my air conditioner broken in my pickup it is a miserable ride home in the hot afternoon, but nothing i cant get used to i guess.
ha, no choice but to get used to it...

happy friday the 13th everyone, another day down, and not looking good for a day off this weekend, hell, its like i am out on the road doing over the road trucking, i never get to see my family putting in 13 to 15 hours a day, and i sure miss visiting with my big bro, and my wife only sees me for a minute around 3 am, after she gets home and in the time i cant sleep, so, i dont know how long this is gonna last, i might be better off going otr again, at least after 14 days out i would have 4 completly off, and at least i could see my baby when i am home, this way things are going it is impossable to have off on a friday so i can go pick him up, and as i said to swift the first time, i am not ready to give up my family yet.... and there is flagrant disregard to the D.O.T. regulated time you can work, i guess as long as i will work the hours the boss dont care, i guess its not him that gets the fines if i wind up getting caught by the DOT.

oh well, i gripe too much i guess, maybe tomorrow will be a better day.

good night everyone!

new friends, hard work and a hurt hand!!

good evening all, nice of you to join me tonight, welp firend and family >> HI BIG BRO<<< i have put in the longest day so far with my new employment, and have made new friends, the 4 legged variety,
lets start by saying it is 9 pm and i started my day at 6 am, sharp, drive just under 100 miles to a drilling mud plant south of pecos texas, home of the judge roy bean museum, if you ever want to go to pecos you should check it out, anyway, i was to deliver loads of drilling mud, what they do with drilling mud i havent the foggiest, so, dont ask me!...

anyway i load my truck with 40,600 pounds of drilling mud and i am off to rig number 141 with a local drilling company here in odessa, the rig is said to be 6 miles east of the tiny town of mentone texas, well, after a while of searching it is fount to be in a totally different county, it is actually 17 miles from mentone, no big deal, nothing i cant handle, so i make 3 uneventful trips between mentone and pecos,
on the last trip my boss ,makes a frantic call for me to scoot to north of andrews texas, to one of my most favorite drilling locations, where it takes a long time to load and there is usually no one around, and it is probably one of the most peaceful areas around,
there are 4 or 5 locations in the same small area, and they are just teaming with wildlife, well, i get to 1-3 location, about 2 miles from the nearest blacktop, and i come on this gent with a pair of binoculars, i introduce myself and he then tells me to "check this out" so i look and low and behold there are a family of some type of wild cats, much bigger than a normal house cat, i think they must have been bob-cats, according to the pumper this family has lived in this area for a few years now, and have had 3 litters of babies that he knows of, my wife would have loved it, she would have had me out there chasing the darn things,
"can you catch me one?" yea... NOT,
i asked the pumper how close he has gotten to them and the 300 or so yards has been the closest he has ever tried, thats was really cool, then back to work, there is 2 locations that need to be drained of the brine water, or salt water, and need to go to the new location that is operating, well, this should take all night, so i look at my time piece and it is about 2 pm, so its time for a sandwitch and some chips, and top it off with a pepsi, >> THANKS CHRISSY<<< so, after 4 or 5 loads it is time to start shutting things down, as i am gathering my stuff i notice a rock seems to be moving across the location i am at,
a rather larg rock i might add, well, a very, very large desert tortus is making his way under my truck!,
so you know i have to play with him, you know i have to, this poor desert tortus is injured in his shell, it looks like he may have been partially run over, so i remember reading that a good thing to do to an injured shell is to clean it and put some type of protectant on it, well, i have a bottle of water and a rag handy, so i pick this little guy up and put him in the railing on my trailer, where i store my hoses, and he is very old, his little face looks like a little old man from the days when mom was a nurse at the crockett county care center, and his shell has had a lot of hard miles, so i clean him up, and i paint him with water based marking paint, non-toxic of course, and put him down with some bread from my sandwitch, and he just sits there looking at me after he takes a bite, like,
" well, where is the rest of it...."
it was very funny, so i took him about 100 yards from the road and release him back to do what ever it is a tortus does, and load my stuff , well, as i am trying to get my unloading hoses rounded up the drillers at the site decide to turn on some kind of a air burst drain, and it takes the 3-1/2 inch hose and rips it from my hands, now i have my pointing and middle finger wrapped with paper-towl and electrical tape, the flanges on my hoses ripped right through the cheap cotton gloves the boss buys us to use, so i finish loading my stuff up and come home to tell you all about it, what a long day it has been, but it was fun, i put in over 500 miles total today and went 3 hours over my regulated driving time, so i am going to run clean up, eat a reeses, pop a pepsi, and see whats on the tv before i drift off to sleep to do it again in the same place tomorrow, good night everyone, and i hope tomorrow is a great day for all!

p.s. dont forget you can leave comments if there is actually anyone reading this!!!

what a day we had today.....

ok, so the boss tells me saturday to come in at 8 am monday, so here i am at work at 7:45am, and what do ya know, he has a list to give to me of things that "should keep you busy for the rest of the day" exact words you know, well, here we go, first on the to-do list was "firefly" lease, an oil lease about 10 miles from a little town of crane, texas, about 23 miles from home, and about 17 miles from the nearest paved road, so i get in my little white mack truck and off i go down one of the bumpiest iolfield roads ever conceived, this road has seen nothing but truck traffic in the last 10 years, THANK GOD FOR AIR RIDE SEATS anyway, i draw down about 140 barrels of waste water, called brine water, or salt water, and i am now setting here thinkking to myself, man, you gotta go BACK down that road with a full load of water.....50,000 pounds of the stuff, well, let me tell ya, its better fully loaded, so, after my guts are done juicing around in my fat belly i get off the firefly lease and back on pavemnt, an uneventful trip to the dump station and away we go to the next lease on the list,

GERENAMO, lease, yes, like the indian, only spelled correctly, i like this lease, i am to draw down, or load up as i say, about 120 barrels, a barrel in the oil field is 42 gallons or so, anyway, i am all hooked up and have gaged out my drawdown on this site, and i notice my friendly little bunny setting just right next to where i have planted myself to do my load paperwork, its a little short eared cottontail, and he is just looking at me, so i get finished with my paperwork and turn the pump on the truck to SUCK me some waste water on board, and this little guy is still there...so, as the animal lover i am i decide to see if i can play with this little bunny out here in the middle of nowhere, gerenamo is off highway 1492 here in west texas, about 20 miles from biglake texas, anyway, i start looking for things to try to feed this little tiny rabbit, and low and behold it comes to me, my wonderful bride made me some sandwitches for lunch, so lets see if little cottontail would like some bread and turkey, so i put out a bite or two and the little guy comes and gets it!!!!!, he was waiting for some munchies, so i put down a few bites for him, and settle back in my setting place on the well site, i am setting on the stairs to the tank, and he came right over and devoured the bread and meat... tell me that animals cant live in perfect harmony with an oil well, hahahah, i love west texas, and am really enjoying my job at this point, i sure wish my bride would have been there, she really likes things like this, so peaceful and quiet out here, and a little bunny to keep me company.. it was REALLY cool, i finish my loading and leave the little bunny friend to his worl watching over the gerenamo well site, and i am back to the dump station, well, the dump site has a sign that reads "if the indicator is over 12 o clock DONT unload" well, i happen to notice its setting at about 11:55, hahaha, so i unload anyway, and all be damed if i dont overfloe the storage tank, so i have to wait on site till the waste pump has a few minutes to work out its little problem, it was cool, i am forcing 400 gallon per minute into this little piece of junk, and it dont like it one bit!

ok, then we are off to a very un-eventful trip to ct-39 lease, it is just north of the intersection of highway 1788 and highway 1492, this is a really old site, it has a white archway that some oilfield welder one time had extra pipe and a little too much time on his hands, so instead of making a decent width gate, this guy puts together this white archway to drive under, and only makes the entrance to this lease road about 8 feet wide, well if i have a truck thats 7'10 inches wide, its an uncomfortable run through an 8 foot gate, but no sweat for this kid, i make it with room to spare, and get my load and back to the dump staion, well its getting onward to 2:30 pm at this point, so i decide to munch another sandwitch and wait out a little ken time, so i shut off the truck and eat some lunch, a brownie and a little pepsi, with a turkey sandwitch my wife has packed for me, out here in the quiet middle of west texas, i think i am going to like this job.. so, as my uncle used to say, i looked at my time piece, and it is about 3:30ish, so i head for fuel and to wash the truck and make an early day of it today, home by 5:30pm, a claen and fueled truck, and a nap, ready for the haul of drilling mud tomorrow!

good night all, i hope you all had as good of day as i did!

ok, and off to the races...

well, i have done it, finally got my own blog where i can gripe about stuff and bore the world, and nothing you say can stop me, guess i should start with the fun stuff, like family and friends, of whitch i dont have many of eather one, i love my wife, chriss very much and cant believe she puts up with me as much as she has, she works at a local area news paper, one of them people that corrects my horrid spelling, ha, and she is a really cool wife, most of the time..heheheh, even makes my lunch for me after she gets home from her own job, so i am ready for another hard day of truck driving, HI CHRISSY!

and i have a big brother james, he is about my only family i have left, and a great big brother, you couldnt ask for better, thats for darn sure, you would not belive some of the stuff me and my big brother have been through, i love him ...like a brother, he is just a great guy, and an awesome dad to my little spoiled rotten niece, val, more about her down the line though, james works as a computer geek at a local cell phone company, so if your cell dont work, i dont wanna hear about it!!!

anyway, james likes to shoot big guns, and ownes some of the coolest shit you will ever see, like the BFR pistol, in 45/70 caliber, you can check it out on magnum research site on the internet, he also ownes one of my favorites, the desert eagle, in 44magnum!!! just like my other hero, mac-bolin, the "executioner" from the don pendleton novels, anyway, i will have a bfr soon in 444 marlin, READ MY LIPS, MORE BIG GUNS!!!

hahaha, anyway, on the list up next is the greatest person ever, my mom,

my mom is already passed,why do we call it passed, she was eat alive by a monster, she passed with the horrible problem facing our world, please contribute to the cancer foundation of your choice, no matter who or where or what it is, hell, drop by your local cancer center and just drop them off a few bucks, or go to the places where it will really count, like the lance armstrong foundation, or the american cancer society, cause watching cancer take a loved one is horrible, and i am still not fully recovered from losing my mom.

unlike most people i dont really feel the need to post internet addresses, cause no one reads my ramblings anyway,

and if you are reading this you can go to my fav search engine,YAHOO, and find the address yourself, ya lazy terd!,

anyway, i have only one kiddo 7 years old, named Brian, or "BOO" as i call him, he is my very existance in this crule world, and i dont get to see him near as much as i would like, he lives with his BITCH mother, and she is a REAL BITCH, so, in the fight against bitches like her, and to support great dads like me, contribute to a great dad, come on you know you know one, give him a few bucks to send the kid, it will help him out, and wont hurt you eather, ha!!!
or support fathers rights in any way you can, cause babies need there daddy!!!

, and me, i drive for a really cool company, lenorah operators, an oilfield service type company in Midland Texas, i am a truck driver, and drive a giant shop-vac, literally, its a 140 barrel vacuum truck, and a really nice tractor, i drive a mack ch-600, with one of the smoothest shifting road ranger 10's i have ever seen, well, i guess i should say that i like my new job so far, it has only been 3 days at this point, so stick around as i progress through my outlook on the company, and the boss, at this point i really like my boss, he really seems to be a decent guy, he tells me what needs to be done and then leaves me alone to get-er-done, and i really like that.... better than the really screwed up company i was going to work for, J.B. Hunt trucking, they refused me for taking too much time from working to take care of my mom, so if you see a hunt driver, please tell them, there company SUX!, ha, better off where i am probably anyway, least i am home every night, i started a career as a computer geek, at Texas Tech Health center at Odessa, and before that was a broadcast engineer for several years, so i have a lot of varied background.

so, on the friends side... hahahahah, i dont have any, the closest thing i have to a friend is David, a dorky little guy i have known for like 18+ years, i have tried to talk him into making something of himself, but he has never listened, and he dont have much of a future i am afraid, anyway, he only contacts me if there is anything he wants me to do, otherwise i never hear from him unless i call him, you all know how that goes....

DAMN what a boring string so far.

well. me and chrissy have two doggies, sherman, a rottweiler with a crooked jaw from catching a car, he is a hand-me-down from my mom, i gave him to her a lomng time ago, and when she moved to odessa i had lost my puppy, howie, shermans dad, so she gave sherman to me, he is a really good dog, but just didnt get much attention growing up, so he is not a house or kid dog.

the other HOUND is chrissy's baby, a spoiled rotten little shit named lucy, a bassett hound that is a mega energy factory, and crazy as they come, cute little terd, if she was just under control, low slung and high strung!

welp, time to catch some rest, and wake chrissy up from her nap, night world.

take care everyone, and if you see a trucker out there, give him a big wave, and thank him, he has given up a lot to bring you everything you see around you, cause if it werent for the big rigs, you would have nothing, think about it, how did everything you see around you get to where it is, thats right, from the paint on the walls, to the gas in your car, to the clothes on your back, a big rig brought them, so hug a trucker, you and him/her will enjoy it a lot, and you just might make a new friend!!!

welp, hello world!

well, here we are, in our underware again in front of the computer trying to figure out all the hype of a personal blog, and trying to figure out how to play with this darn thing without pushing the blood pressure over the limits, so, join me in my quest to bore the world on a regular basis with my ramblings..... and hello world!!!!!
