2 updates, 1 week; it's happening.

You're damn right it's another update this week. Can you handle it? I think you can. Life on the slope is going well, we're back to drilling and bringing all you hard working folks some black gold. Many of you are worried about the high price of gas, and to you I say "Welcome to the Alaska Fuel Club". Yep, we had that 4 dollar gas all year (It's five now).

I've learned a great deal this hitch about rig operations not directly related to my job and even about life. The rig ops stuff is boring to everyone but me, so I won't elaborate; the life lessons are awesome.

The primary life lesson I learned are that people are absolutely crazy. Go ahead and disprove me (you're in denial). No matter how sane you thought someone was, nay. I -almost always- enjoy crazy people and their shenanigans, whether the advice is to start as big a fire as you can if you're in a plane crash or make sure or ensure you always wear pants to WalMart.

Anyway, this crazy bachelor is going to run and keep on drilling in the free world. Adios, Amoebas (favorite saying of a geologist up here).

Back to Drilling

Hey there,

Well after a few days of running casing, cementing and testing the previous two items we are back to drilling. Going back to drilling is always hectic thanks to the ample amount of paperwork that is added to the already large workload. Today went extremely well, and I'm glad of it.

Sorry for the short post, need to get back to the work thing.
