    If you think im a butthead in the middle of the day then you really don’t want to see me in the morning, Its not pretty. I tell people if I get woken up b4 6am, then your shit better be on fire. That’s the only reason ill be in an ok mood at that time of the morning. I like the nites better too. We have trainings on Thursdays. Im making them do a back to basics training this week, because they didn’t perform to the standards I think they should be at. So it will be boring for them too. Well ill leave you alone now, talk to ya later C.C. girl. (that’s what im goanna call you.) C ya “C.C.G.” :-}
