Hey all!
So I had my entertainment center delivered today. It has only taken 3 delivery dates, two receipts, and about 15 people to make this happen. An awful lot of work to get a simple delivery. Oh well. I had to put the thing together, but I am pretty happy with the way that it looks. All I need to do is get a smaller DVD player, and everything will fit much better in the space that I have. Just means more money that I have to spend. Other than that, I have had an interesting couple of days. As I mentioned earlier, I have been sitting on console during the third shift. It has been kind of cool. Because there generally isn't too much going on, I have had the chance to ask a lot of questions. I am also getting used to listening to about 15 people talking at once and distinguishing who is saying what to whom. Kinda cool. Other than that, there isn't a whole lot new going on. I finally have most of the access that I need to complete my job. Some is still pending, but that should be taken care of well prior to when I need it.
I think that I may have finally taken care of to finalize my conversion to a Texan. I have my license plates, I have a local residence, I just took care of my driver's license yesterday, and at the same time, I got registered to vote here in Harris County Texas.
Besides that, I am trying to get back into a normal sleep pattern so that I can go to work next week and not have any problems staying awake for the entire shift. Kind of important, since I need to learn all of the basics of shuttle and station operations so that I can become a useful member of the team. Well, I am out for now.

Hi Honey....I'm really enjoying reading your blog. I watched the lift off with you too. Pretty smoth.
Looking forward to more pix when you send them again. Don't think I didn't recognize our favorite store who screwed up your deliveries!
Being able to listen in on the astronauts must seem surreal What stories you'll have to tell your children.
Miss you, but reading your blog makes you seem so close. Love you much. Gram Nita
