Almost...

I'm very excited to be only 1 shift away from being completely done with all my "NightFloat" shifts and Harborview.

Never shall I need live with the mole people again!

It's actually rather strange to work a night shift. You would think that all you see is night, but actually all you see is daylight. You go work in the evening, you're inside all night, and then go home in the morning. Then, you try to sleep when it's ridiculously bright outside and everyone else is living their normal lives.
Sometimes I feel like I've been awake for an entire week, since I'm awake all night long, and then even though I'm alseep for a few hours during the day, I'm fully aware of the time passing since Tiffany is doing all sorts of stuff while I'm asleep. So it's kind of like there's a full week's worth of timeline, rather than reseting at the end of each day.
And it's really hard to remember what day it is.

Anyway, that's that!

Pictures of our empty house

I've posted some pictures from our final walk-through on picasa.

Here's the link.

he comes in peace . . . or does he?

This is a duplicate post from my other blog (electric sleepwalking), but some things are too important and must be seen.

It's somewhat self-explanatory - if it's not, then all I can say is enjoy the mystery.
Think of it like that first 'Cloverfield' trailer.

Pittsburgh, PA!

Okay, so it's pretty pathetic that there have been no posts since November, but it's the holidays, so what do you expect?

Right now I'm holed up in a hotel in Pittsburgh, watching Mythbusters.  They're testing the action-hero-falls-through-successive-awnings myth (as seen in 'temple of doom') 

--Movie trivia aside: according to the DVD special features, Lucas saw 'Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom' as an opportunity for him to make a "horror" film.  Speilberg was apparently not all that into it, which may explain its being the worst of the series (until the two of them mess up 'indy 4'), and his using the time to woo his eventual wife, Kate Capshaw.--

Anyway, I'm stuck-inside-of-pittsburgh-with-the-P.A.-blues-again (heh heh... Dylan).  Interviewed for a residency spot at West Penn earlier today.  I'm scheduled to fly out early tomorrow to phoenix, then to SLC for another interview.  (The brilliance of this interview trip is that I have 8 flights in 5 days, since no one seems to fly directly from one city to the next).

Portland -> Minneapolis -> Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh -> Phoenix -> Salt Lake

Salt Lake -> Denver -> Wichita

Wichita -> Denver -> Portland

Brutal...

Pittsburgh has some interesting architecture.  A lot of stuff seems Gothic-inspired.  Some buildings old enough to be deco/gothic, and newer ones that are post-modern/gothic.  

I'll post some pics as soon as I've got them uploaded.

Until then...  serenity now!
