CHAOS. PANIC. DISORDER. My work here is done.

A Fish out of Water

There’s a huge hole in the water system here in South Carolina. A pipe burst or something (it happened while I was at work so I don’t really know what happened except that most of the Charleston area and three counties are without water). Sooooo…. Looks like I’ll be living off canned iced tea and Sprite until this situation clears. And no showers until it’s fixed, but that’s okay, because, according to Poor Richard, I’ve got up to three days before I start to stink.

The lack of posts recently is because I’m buried up to my neck with my nuke qualifications. I have a comprehensive test Thursday that covers a ton of information and I’ve been studying like mad before I take it. It’s got multiple sections and I don’t want to fail any of them. At this point, it looks as though I will be the second ET on my crew to finish qualifying. I’m excited to be this close to the end (who knew I would make it this far?) but I don’t want to fail out at this point either.

In any event, I expect that OFaL will be offline for the most part until this madness is over. Three weeks left but I’m trying to finish early. Wish me luck.

    You are working on nuclear things with a crew of extraterrestrials? I knew the US government was hiding things from us.

    Anaglyph: I don’t know what’s worse, you’re joke or the fact that it took me a second to get it. I can’t believe you don’t like my bad puns on the Cow but you leave comments like…this. This is why people charge you extra money to pull your cork.

  5. anaglyph says:

    Oh. I wasn’t joking. I really did think you were working with extraterrestrials.

    If not, then you have one less weapon in your defense against your barking dog neighbour…

    I meant ET, as in Electronics Technician, not ET as in the bald monkey sort of alien.
