NEWS?

GENERALLY IN MY LIFE NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS... the winds seem to be in our favor today and i believe they have started a back burn this morning a canyon away from us, so thats seems to be more good news... big sur is a fucking mess... the sherriffs have declared a sort of marshall law there and are arresting people on site... ??? the chp have been a bit more helpful and not as harsh. some people seem to be able to get supplies in and move around a bit while others are not being able to leave their properties for a split second... there are so many people in charge its like a cock fight. some members from our local fire crew have bee reported awol with equipment, fighting fires on their own ridges and homes i imagine. one land owner (where denim lives) lit his own back fire and they have been fighting it on the front lines of their own property for a couple of days now.. the sherriffs might try and make an example of him by arresting hime for felony arson when this is all over... wtf? others that have been evac'ed have had no contact with their loved ones who have stayed.... this is a painfull time for all. we are doing better than most, not as well as some but not in any danger as of yet... i should be able to get back here a little more often... i hope... be safe all and remember to wear your condoms!!!

I THINK THE INTERNET IS GOING TO TRY AND FUCK MR RIGHT NOW... SEE IF I CAN POST THIS....

BEST THINGS IVE HEARD SO FAR....

the folks who have survived these fires are now experiencing guilt... the home next door burned to the ground and their home a hundred feet away is still intact.... its tough i guess when that happens.

something else i heard today was "it was enjoyable to talk about and be a part of until it turned towards our house...."

and "she was so pissed that he didn't take the dogs..."

"why" i ask. "they weren't even on the property when he was there getting all their paintings and a truck load of their belongings..."

"well, he should have found the dogs, that fucking bum."

she being the wife of the man whose ex-son-in-law went up to their property while they were out of town to retrieve any valuables along with his children's belongings and some of his exwifes stuff, because their mother was too far away to make it happen herself...

"um, those dogs were at deetjens. and they aren't even married any more, he did that out of the kindness of his heart... why is he a bum?"

"he should have found those dogs..."

"the dogs showed back up there today, and they still haven't returned from vacation yet so what gives?

"hes a fucking bum...." she mumbles and turns back to her desk.

with all the hubbub and rumors flying around, i think I'm going to go home and not go out until Monday when i have to be at work!!! have a great weekend all and be safe eh?

we are fine

it funny how shit always flies at the same time in the same direction! first our water was a problem, now our home phone is on the blink, then today they shut my cell phone off. i called and they had no idea why? i haven't even received this months bill yet. then they told me that my next bill would have a thirty six dollar reconnection fee attached to it? what? hello? so after thirty minutes of sitting on the side of the highway and going from dept. to dept. i finally get the charges reversed and "have a nice day? what?
anyway, the fire is just consuming everything in its path and they have all but stopped fighting it. they wont go up or onto roads with no access to a way out other than the way in. they aren't trying to stop its path anymore either... so homes are burning. its all the way into the south coast now and they have evacuated my friend wango. they are not letting anyone(hardly) down the highways and there are more pieces of equipment sitting on the side of the road than are fighting the fire... sitting there, doing nothing... idling away the hours... its so disheartening and frustrating...
that's all folks and as of now we are in the clear and aren't in any immediate danger... lots of good thoughts to you all and thanks for all your support and prayers... i will be back to normal blogging habits soon!!!

SO MUCH FOR RUMORS AND THE MILL

after a nine hour day of driving to the city and back to pick up our rebuilt transmission (finally) and returning to the office only to find our town in a complete state of hysteria, did i start the rest of my day. cheese is sick out the nose and is feeling the love the nasal gods.... our town is in the highest state of fire rumordom.. code fucking red... its sickening... in a communitity where everybody knows everything about everyone, its no shock that when tragidy strikes so do the know it alls. i had several phone calls asking about how the fire is doing by my house... WHAT? the fire is miles and miles miles from us, but i had to ensure them that cheese had driven herself personaly to this supposed fire site and saw nothing other that the fire twenty miles from us burning away... and that was only the begining... i digress...
the fire is fucking us in the ass with its hot poker in many other ways... the mini-cheeses dads house is in imminant danger still and "the new sherriffs in town" will not let them up to retrieve any more belongings today. as of the fire meeting at our multi-agency facility sixteen homes have burned. all of them we know and have been to, most are of people we know or who live in them and lost everything they couldnt put into a couple of toyotas.... ive seen cell phone pics better than any ive ever seen on the news or in the paper... i pray for these people...
last couple of days we have driven up to a look out here locally and watched the bombers and choppers dumping load after load... today we were informed that they have taken the majority of our resources away for other fires that threaten more homes elsewhere in the state. i care as much for those people as they do for me.... it was dissheartening to only see a couple of airborne fire fighting units in the sky this evening compared to the multitude of them last night. and the fire is bigger and moving faster than last night as well... so watching haulers with dozers leave the area didnt bode well for my solo ride home...
it will be a new dynamic here, businesses are being shut down and people evacuated, locals are hanging out in parking lots trying to go on in a normal fashion, what else are you going to do. they have shut down the highway in areas and so far its been up to law enforcements descretion as to who and when people can pass...

badge and a gun makes certain people do the wrong things at the wrong times... i wish we had more humble police helping us here... we are all not pot smoking, tree hugging hippies... some of us work, live , love and contribute here.... we need not be treated like we are smuggling something or being dishonest when we say we are helping someone evacuate or are simply trying to go home after a 72 shift at the hospital...

im spent and keep promising to do things im not able to do... so thank you all my bomb ass readers for your wicked support and checking in and your comments... im here, availible for what ever... just cant do my usual blog routine as of yet... ive lurked in several places this week and looks like you guys are keeping it up, so gla to be a part!!! have a safe and sound evening....




yeah, enjoy all the speeling and punkuation errors... i, uh... left them in on porpus!!!


*slinks off, feeling stupid that he cant spell on top of everything else*

ANOTHER FAST ONE

so big sur is on fire again... the girls are quite stressed out that it may affect/burn their dads house.... its huge and i guess there has also been a massive rock slide as a result of the fire. i spent several hours yestarday listening to the scanner and trying to take photos of the massive thunder and lightning storm that hung directly over us. massive. hope my photos work out, i'll post them if they do! today is the memorial service for my friends husband... over a month has past and it seems like yesterday that all went down in the garage...
im slowly loseing speed and momentum at work and in life.... im always tired, a fucking grouch, too lazy for much sex and sick off and on constantly... i never took that vacation and i need it...
anyways, hope yer weekends have been great and i'll be back to commentsie backsies and all that jazz soon!!!!

man oh man...

so the suffering still continues... to top it all off its so damn hot here (over one hundred degrees) that i cant hardly tell if the sweatyness I'm experiencing is from the heat or coming from my ass....

anyway, I'm still too fucked up to post anything of any substance so here is a link i thought was interesting for those of you who have a cell phone and are thinking of purchasing a new one. this might help sway your decision one way or another...
