It was raining chains last night.

[mountain muscle]

While we were rigging down to move the rig, a 20 ft. long 1/2 inch, chain/snake jumped out of the derrick at me.
My lightening fast instincts turned me around to run but curiously my feet failed to find traction on the frozen mud covering the rig floor. Damn thing bit me just under my neck and down my back before whipping around my leg. Almost knocked me off my feet.
Should have seen everyone's faces though when I yelled "Something bit me!"
Good thing it was a nice and cold and numb night. Now that I am defrosting I am starting to feel a curious lump on my back.

Imagine how badly the chain is hurting though.

Good thing the swivel didn't twist off, imagine how much you would have hurt that!

I think I am gonna light a fire in the fireplace in my office. It is kinda chilly here. Damn O & G business, tough isn't it.

Baby, what are you doing playing on elite?

Get back to work. Somebody's got to support my bad habits.

This work thing is cutting into my BM time!

Tell your damn derrick worm to secure that shit. We had our mainline fray today, I of course was watching satellite tv in my rig at the time, and it's a little pl090 so there is all of 25ft of mast.

[juiceddreadlocks]

fuck you and fuck peak oil.

call me back, ho.

 

[mountain muscle]

fuck you and fuck peak oil.

call me back, ho.

I'll call you when I get off work at 6am then. Sunday night is the end of the week for me, but I may have to go to Casper for an interview.

Oh and Scots, I am the derrickworm right now, I went up to the floor to help the worms after finishing up the backyard. Had to show them the tape or zip tie trick and 1/2 inch chains should get a half hitch anytime they are overhead anyway.
My relief is thrilled I am working derricks now, lol I spend the first 2 hours fixing his mistakes everyday. Pretty cool little Mexican guy who just started working derricks. I am hoping he has a hot sister.

I have a fireplace flare too, and a pool and a mud bath.

So there.

It's amazing to me that more guys don't get fucked up than already do when people can't even figure out to secure chains and shit. I'm just glad that I am now the senior rock cock so everyong else has to do what I say.

We had a little mexican relief driller up here his name is Juan. So naturally being "Little Juan" he was soon known as burrito.LOL

Oh and that has to be close to incest to try and get with another worms sister.LOL

LOL, my Driller's name is Juan. He goes by Jonny or Jon though. Very cool guy even though I have to do his books and run the pason for him lol.
It is fun being a derrickman again. Someone let a suction pod wash and they were amazed I could fix it with a .22 bullet and it ran fine all night. (Lead counter weights on tires work well too. I borrowed some off the Mud man's trailer because he pissed me off.)

I am amazed a more guys don't get fucked up as well.

LOL @ "Burrito" We have a guy named Jesus (roughneck for lazy bastard) who didn't show up for two days and no one got it when I kept asking, "Have you found Jesus?" I am funny to me though hah.
His new name is Nacho.
We have a very white boy named "Casper" with a sibilent S problem whose favorite word is niggerthhh.
The last hand is a guy who broke out about 14 years ago and hasn'r been in the patch for at least 12 named "old Squirrel."
The entertainment value of the hands alone is enough to keep me in the job.
Good news though, maersk emailed me about a new interview, Ulterra did too about openings in Casper. I am trying to set up with Schlumberger, Dplus and Multishot when I go to Casper too.

Senior rock cock now eh? You'd just be the old dick to me.
