Pointless Announcements

Mondays at work are slooooooow. Boo.

Off tomorrow, though, and going to a baseball game on Thursday. Huzzah!

 

I spent around 35 minutes waiting on hold to talk to a tech about my lack of house dial-tone and my intermittent internet connection.
The guy finally picks up, we talk for another few minutes, he then transfers me to someone to set up a work order to send a guy to fix my lines.
So more muzak while I'm on hold, then a woman answers and asks if she could help, I explain what I was on hold for, she says she'll transfer me to a tech. (sigh)
So after waiting a while with more muzak in my ear, I then talk to Harold, who has a thick Indian dialect, but, Harold turns out to be the most helpful and states that there have been work crews in my area ever since some thunderstorms we had last week.
He starts to set up a work order for a tech to visit me, himself, when my cell-phone all of a sudden switches off.
For some reason, it bypassed the recharge warning and went directly to off.

So I get to start this shit all over again when I recharge. Yay...

 

It's been a long day. I'd really like to see some boobs.

 

best I could do on short notice.
Shazaaaaam!

 

I don't care what they say about you, noodle. You're all right in my book. Thanks for making my afternoon.

 

Oh good. I don't care either.

 

i have been minding my nephews, i suppose we could call it. it is day 4 of 10. i have learned many things. for example, parenting is picking children up or dropping them off, attending events you don't care about and buying things. sometimes it is also learing about how chicks dig a gentleman who can skateboard while playing ukulele or watching hot sauce and chicken pot pie get poured over the carbonara you just made, which makes a sad heap in the bowl that looks as though it is bleeding, much in the way your heart is over what just happened to your pasta dish.

 

Wondering right now how I am so awake after working all night and then getting and driving around a U-haul to retrieve a washer and dryer and make run to the county landfill.
What run on sentence I have no idea at all whatever you are talking about or possibly just no desire to fix that this very second that second one is probably the right answer.

 

Had to look at the image name but just making sure - that one on the right is that Santorum fellow? I take it is a bad sign when I dislike the GOP candidates almost as much as the sitting president.

 

Baseball. Beer. Brat. 'nuff said.

 

Who's playing??

 

The Hickory Crawdads vs. the Asheville Tourists. Class A affiliates of the Texas Rangers and the Colorado Rockies, respectively.

 

Minor League teams always seem to have more colorful and interesting names than their Major League counterparts.

 

adventures of a fake parent, weekday 2.

nothing cures a youngster's newly acquired cold on the first school day after a short vacation quite like a phone call from a grandmother volunteering to spend the following day helping with his convalesce. the effects of that offer are truly miraculous.

also, left to their own devices, a youngster will find it important to know whether cream cheese can be shot through a syringe.

 

mouth is watering
