    This is why I took 2 years of typing in HS, yes it was still typing then on electric typewriters, Ohh the good old days. And yes there were only like 3 guys in the whole class :p

    @ Lady - Sorry your humans are not fairing so well. I hope things get better. Hope it wasn't anything that involved getting your shoes vomited on or otherwise soiled.

    @ msbengbeng - I thought you had to be crazy to work mental health. How did you end up there? :wink:

    Tony!!! How the heck are you? I took shop instead. No girls in the class and I wasn't really interested in it anyway. I only took it to fill the vocational ed requirement. We just got IBM selectrics when I was in Highschool. :scream:

    Im good now, Holidays were crazy, too many people off work, I ended up doing your kind of shifts. 12 on 12 off from Christmas day through the 2nd. Just now getting back to a somewhat normal 8hr shift. I took the typing fresh/soph years then Elec. wiring jr/sr years. poor kids today do not really have many electives. That is where the fun was.

    No kidding. I took computer programming. My first semester we had a computer that used punch cards and my second semester we got to use the computer that had punch tape. My third semester we were hot stuff. We got to use the computer with reel to reel tapes! :laugh: Kids today don't even know what punch cards are or the horror of dropping the stack and realizing you have to put them back in the correct order. :smiley:

    @ Leslie - Oh I love the cold. You can dress warmer but you can only take off so many clothes before they arrest you. The older I get, the less clothes it takes before they arrest me. I'm getting to the point where I can't take off my hat. :laugh:

    Hi all. Not actually a night shifter. Just up all night with a new puppy.

    @ Danj - What kind of puppy?

    OK. I confess. I'm a tech geek at heart. I have my Macbook on the stand to my left, my PC for work on the center of my desk and my iPhone 6 Plus on the right with all screens up. Myfitness pal on the left, my work in the center and stupid zombies 2 on the right. :laugh:

    Very nice. Great personalities but they are really prone to being overweight which makes their already narrow airways even harder to get air through. They do sound cute when they snore though. :smile:

    See, @suferlandrian, that's the thing.. I can't get warmer, I don't mind the heat, but I'm just so cold natured that once I'm cold, I have a hard time warming up. Unless I'm running.. In which case I can work up a sweat at 15 degrees.

    Looks like you were doing the Spartan race. That must have been fun. If it was up here where it's cold, you could have stopped by the fire and then taken off again. :smiley:
