    That even in Oklahoma where oil wells are everywhere, the news organizations do a pisspoor job of researching facts.
    Yesterday a pumping unit located about 1.5mi from my house broke a rod or something and sprayed some “fluid” around for literally about 4-5mins.
    All the “fluid” was contained on location and in no way threatened anyone unless you stood and drank it.
    The news told people in the area to Shelter in place.
    Totally ridiculous.
    Of course the local news channel I saw it on is not owned by an Ok company so I shouldn’t expect the truth.
    It does irk me though.

    How coddled kids are today. As a kid I lived on jolly ranchers that were like razor blades!

    It’s cliche but I’m remember things in the past that my ex said no to that we should have done.
    He was wrong. Omg, I said it! 🤣
    So great at attaining things,
    not so great at holding on to them.

    Does this include his wonderful and beautiful ex-wife? 🥰 He was wrong!

    On this current project, I'm working alongside someone I wouldn't normally choose. We were contracted separately and told we were handling different parts of the same job. Even though we are equals, she's acting as if she's in charge (telling me what time to come in, even though I have a schedule I'm perfectly capable of reading, and frequently reminding me about our file management process, even though she's the one that keeps forgetting to move files when she's working on them). Frankly, she's adequate but not great at her job, so I'm having to pick up the slack. I was supposed to leave Thursday morning but I changed my flight to a red eye tomorrow. It can't come fast enough. (I think if I was getting more sleep I'd be more patient.) Vent over
    Thank you for the hugs... 😍
