The weather spits a bit here and there but the overriding situation here is that lack of luck and I think a holiday is really necessary but is some RR really able to fix it at all and bottom line I am still living in a Jeep Wrangler.

The weather seems to be tring to hold and at the end of the day you can see that there was success there. Over night and the time to be sleeping was all too different.

I may be daft from my office being in the Dungeon but I just can’t imigine weather like this is normal and then you couple it with living in a Jeep Wrangler and you have one sorry ass situation.

I wish I could just go on and on but in reality it is somewhat depressing and really don’t care to say much about it.

I may not have said or otherwise but the type of installations I am working on is also the only nationwide species of tree that is growing in every state of the Centennial United States.

If the weather could be like this all of the time it would almost be like home . . . . NOT! There is no place like home next to my little honey.

I AM SO Happy . . . .

Just the same the weather during the day was no more than 75 and somewhat cloudy not not nasty weather cloudy but ah isn’t it nice to be alive cloudy. Over night it was a tad muggy not real uncomfortable but reality tells me that isn’t be like that alot.

I have been here 13 full days now and I can tell you they have been full from living in a Jeep Wrangler (and no I am not supported or by any means by Jeep, Chrysler or any other but HEY GUYS where the hell are you, I can do that!) to having my life lit up as you see in the video on this page, OH JOY! what happened to there not being a today??

Joy to the world the King has come we just don’t know it and it don’t take some big math jiz-a-bong who can’t figure squat to herald that . . .

As of this moment I am not really sure what to say. I couldn’t do the math myself and I am glad that I was not part of some mass suicide but I do know in my heart that the world will come to an end and the faithful will be called up.

LORD if you can hear me I am ready anytime so just bring me on home anytime will work but NOW is even better . . . . . . LORD are you there?

I guess I am fortunate to at least have a Jeep Wrangler to live in.

Rain Rain go away and come back . . . . NEVER. Gads, so childish but then when one lives in a Jeep Wrangler what can ya say?

If you were to ask if I was liken it yet I would in all likeliness ask that you never say that again and see if I am disciplined enough not to just pound your ass into the ground!

To be nice about it I would say that it ain’t all that bad but it ain’t nuthin like being home! But the reality of it is that IT IS TOTALLY . . . . . UP and I would much rather be home.

I have given my commitment so nothing short of a tornado will get me home – RUBY SLIPPERS, Please . . .

Really, I take the giving of my word and a commitment to doing what I have been mission-ed to do very seriously! but I do question why I was unable to get a psychiatric appointment before coming out here – - divine intervention?

I have gained a new and improved perspective while living in a Wrangler Jeep. Before heading out try to get a promo deal with jeep to pay the expences, for them to give a per diem and find someone who is willing to dole a swift kick in the ass to signify just how stupid that is!

Consider for a moment if you can as to whether you think that ther is no problem with someone living in a Jeep Wrangler while working in Omaha. This is not overnight like some slumber but I mean LIVING!

I don’t have it figure out at all but I am fairly certain that there is 3 days or less.

Make your peace with the lord – be right and be prepared.

Let me see here now there is some where around 4 days left and I am living in a Jeep Wrangler while working in Omaha. Now for those who are not sure that would be Omaha Nebraskie as in Corn Husker . .. . Go Big Red . . . . and I can not say for certain what Big Red is but is is Nebraskie!

Moving forward as you take all of this to mind that I am counting down the end of the world.

I like my job and what I do every week day after waking refreshed and well rested after being shook to death by the never ending wind blowing from Wyoming all the way down I-80 rocking my ass while all the time and this I can say for certain this is no lulaby!

The days here have actually been ideal with the nights right at frosty so let it be daylight and 2:00 P.M.

Still on the job which should be no surprise because I ain’t that kind of person. I have and beleive in my work ethic and I know definitively that I am of sound mind and body.

Hmmmmmmm . . . . If you just started following this story read back. Did you happen to go out and buy a new Jeep Wrangler because you heard about this stroy? Read back!

I will live forever and died on the opppppppps!! Lord please forgive me.

I beleive the Lord Jesus Christ died after be affixed on a cross and crusified so that I may not perish but live in the kingdom of God forever.

If I am counting right there is less that 5 days left but I am not entirely sure if it is local time UTC so we can all be called up together or what I am not well read on these things.

It appears that I may being going home after all!

Maybe I should go to church and ask for the lord to take me now! I do beleive I am ready!!!! I guess this can answer the question a few days ago.

But really, livin in a Jeep Wrangler is not the finest kind of promo for a Jeep or the Jeep wrangler. I mean would you go running out to by a jeep just because some stupid jackass was living in one wether he could afford a decent domicile or not.

God, I do love what I am doing and am thankful that you provided in this way for it certainly beats a refrigirator box under a bridge . . . or wait . .. does it?

It has now been 2 days of work and it is killing me! The sun that is. It is a record today that broke a 1897 record by being 97 degrees out and the humidity was evident tho it wasn’t Missouri like . . . yet.

Imigine for a moment if you can a 55 year old 6′ 3″ 215 pound fat ass like me trying to manauver around a 6′ x 30″ space. Shit, I am going to put up a web cam to capture this then post it to you tube. I have always wanted a viral video so heres to the making and viewing. I will let everyone know when it is done and up.

I am thinking that my neighbor and their band pratice wasn’nt really all that loud but here I am in Omaha NE finished my first day of work and it is and has been hotter than hell!

Give me a moment to think why was it that I wanted to come out here . . .

Oh yeah, it wasn’t a wanted to but a had to . . . . I didn’t have a job . . . . couldn’t find nothing but this . .

I will survive and this will not break me, may still do stupid things just can’t help it that is who I am.

The job? Well it is pretty much sitting in my jeep with the air conditioning running, getting out to warm up from time to time . . .. Oh wait I can’t afford to buy gas to do this so it is sitting in a roastin airless box until I can’t stand it anymore and get out seeking shade….

I take measurements of the installation then write it down in red on the plans and when they are all drawed up I call them asbuilt redlines.

My Jeep RV a view of it outside

Some history here. I am unemployed and don’t make squat compared as to what I had. I am a working man and have been all my life. Never had to draw unemployment nor had I been layed off or fired but at the end of 2010 I found myself unemployed, layed off.

So here on Friday 2011-05-06 an aquaintance said I should call so and so and I did which resulted in my having a fiber optic construction job which paid the same as un-employment but also included a small per diem which offered a boost to a declining savings, so I took it.

Per diem gives you the funds for a place to stay and food to eat and gas to get around. Well I need the per diem for home so I am parking in a RV park sleeping in my “Micro RV” which is my jeep with the front seat taken out. I eat canned everything, drinking nothing but water or instant coffee made using luke warm water from the tap in the bath house.
