So, it’s been six days since I moved up to the OKC.

Five days since the ice storm.

Five days of below-freezing weather.

Consequently, it’s been five days since I last saw the stuff in my trailer. That’s because right now, outside?

Imagine a 2-3 inch layer of ice on the ground, on every single friggin’ thing out there.

Ice, as far as the eyes can see.

Now imagine trying not only to walk on it, but to try and move things on it.

Thankfully, tomorrow’s supposed to be in the 40s for a high. This means I might actually be able to use the damn stuff I brought up here. Y’know, the chairs, the DVDs… the BED. On the plus side, I do have food, drink and cable with highspeed internet. So, I’ve got that going for me. Not only that, but I’m really enjoying the job.

They gave me a laptop for the job, by he way. It’s kinda odd, not having to use a desktop after 5 years of looking at an old monitor. It’s also very freeing. I can get up, and work from anywhere in the offices. FOr that matter, I can drive down t the local Starbucks and work from there, or even from home.

Admittedly, that’s kind of nice. So is the idea that within 7 months I will likely be promoted again. I, along with the two guys on my team, have been told that our job is to create the policies and procedures for our replacements as we get promoted to management.

Okay, admittedly that was freaking cool to hear.

All things considered, it’s pretty nice up here. It’ll be better once I have my stuff upstairs, but I ain’t complaining.

Not yet, anyway.

Out.
