Horrible-Sad day for me

July 20th, 2005

I am totally in the dumps right now. I finally got a call from Pete. He has been so busy with the budget crisis at the county. He said the coroners office is going to lose about ten-thousand dollars. That means he is cutting my position. He is only going to keep one deputy coroner. I am heartbroken. I talked to him a little bit about this. I told him money is not an object. I will do it for free.

He is not totally set on the idea of cutting the position yet, and I hope to talk him out of it, but I don’t hold a ton of hope. I just feel lethargic because of this. I don’t feel like having fun or doing anything right now. It really sucks that it may come down to this. I am hoping beyond hope that we can work something out. I do not want to lose my position. I waited for years to get it and I don’t want it lost so soon after getting it.

I ran into a problem with my LPX upgrade today. I thought I had everything working just right, but there is a problem with the multiple margins. I asked Jon if he could help.

I planned on going to the going away party for Carlton from PPD. But I did not feel like doing much today now. So I went to Colfax and got my stuff. I planned on going home. I need to be there Friday for an interview with a new developer. So I figured I would go in Thursday and then maybe get Jon’s help Thursday night.

I went to the fire station to ask Carl about my turn outs. I was going to see if I could use them in Pullman. He said he does not like it, but he will let me do it. That is a small piece of good news.

I hit the road and cruised on back to Seattle. I made it to Issaquah in about three and a half hours. I guess I was making some good time. I went home and took care of the Internet not working problem my mom asked me to take care of.

I then spent time on the computer and watched some TV before going to sleep.
