A really nice guy I work with, who had some sort of affliction that doesn't allow nutrients from food to stay in the body, passed away on Monday night.

He was just in my office on Friday chatting with me.

This is tough.

*hugs*

Thanks Shiara. I didn't know him all that well, but what I did he was a really nice guy. It's just hard to fathom people being gone.

@Quicktidal - True.....but still, hugs never hurt - sends hugs


@MTS - My sympathies, mate. I feel for you. When's the send off for your Xbox friend?

I want my fiancée to get that!

[RodeoRanch]

So fucking busy.

[RodeoRanch]

Oh and my right hand is infected. Got a bloody big cut last week and the damn thing went and got infected. Now my right hand is a reddened mass of pain. I'm on antibiotics but for a man who works with his hands, it's not a good thing.

At least you still have your trousers....

It's warmed up enough that I could get by without them. Most of the snow has even melted!


Typing hurts.

How the FUCK do people deal with weekdays? With the so-called everyday? Games don't work no more, watching series neither. Could try to start taking evening walks. Can't sleep 12 hours a day now can I?

So what now? HELL.

[rhulad]

I drink a lot of beer.

[Mentalist]

got a call from the people who ran my internet while I was in Uni.
They want their money.
now, this isn't surprising, since I haven't received a sing,e bill form them Since September, when I got the damn thing. Keep in mind, everyone in my rez had to get internet from the same provider, and THEY all got regular bills in the mail.

I mention this fact to the lady on the other end of the phone (i'm in the middle of the city, on a long-distance call on my cell phone at the time).
She tells me, I have been getting ELECTRONIC BILLS.

they were being sent to the myhtical e-mail adress I got when I activated my account. and, naturally, never used again because why the hell would I need another email account.

naturally, I have 0 recollection of this account, or its password (given that I've seen it once in my life, in late September last year).

Now, i'm not averse to paying htese people. they have provided me with unlimited bandwidth and high speed for 8 months. (they think it's 6 for some reason, go figure). In fact, when I first signed up with them, I had my credit card ready to set up automated withdrawals and everything. but, NOOOOOOOOO, the guy said "we'll send you a bill and you can set it up yourself through your bank or something".
And then the woman wanted my credit card number, OVER THE PHONE. I'd have no issue with this, except, i'm in the middle of the city, walking home. I ask her "can you call me back in 40 minutes, once I get home?" NO. can you call me tomorrow? NO.
Oh, and they expect their money by Friday, and I have to call them.
never mind the fact ti's gonna cost me long distance, never mind the fact i'll have to spend 30 minutes being bounced around departments.
And I don't even know what my account number is, because all that paperwork, as well as the modem is packed away back at uni, and I won't be seeing it for another 4 months.

goddamn idiots.

Under the moderately annoying category: keep forgetting awesome things, which are really awesome, except that I forget them because something minor but attention-grabbing happens. Argh. Really frustrating, 'coz it's happened a few times over the last few days. I'm obviously too busy. :S

Meh, either work out a payment plan, or just pay them when you can. Because basically what can they do - repossess all your downloaded pr0n? Stop you from using another provider? Unlikely, as they'd have to go through all that credit related and debt chasing nonsense to do that. Give your name a bad credit rep? Same again, they have to jump through hoops to do that, giving you time to get your shit together.

Well, in any civilised country, that is ...
