i'm the sickest i've been in a long time. i have 0 energy and all i want to do is sleep. i wanted to go ou tthe other night and i got way too tired (sorry i didn't call back e) and crashed out early. i slept for almost 9 hours last night, fell asleep at lunch for half an hour and then i came home and crashed for an hour after work. i don't know what this is, but i hope it goes away soon.

what's going on for new year's? i guess chasing traces of you are playing dan carey's house in dearborn. if they are, i think that's where i'll be. it all depends on how i feel. the first new year in almost five years that i don't have to work on and i'm sick. figures.

i ordered an ho scale version of the trains we have at work. i also ordered a hot metal bottle car, a gondola with bailed scrap, a steel coil car and steel coils. i also purchased a coke hopper rail car. these are the primary rail cars used in a steel mill. it has begun.
