Phone is starting to tick me off.
2009-02-24 21:11:00 My cell phone is really starting to tick me off. It’s not working. I literally had to sign into AIM, add my boss as a buddy, send her cell phone a text message to tell her why I’m not at work and why I supposedly didn’t call in. You see, I called in, and while waiting ...a Phone is starting to tick me off. More About: Blogging , Tick
I Got a New Toy!
2009-02-24 19:13:00 Ok, so my tax check showed up yesterday. Since the rental company I rented my laptop from were being jerks (they know I get paid on the 6th, and they said they’d wait until then, but now all of a sudden are demanding the tables and laptop back), I decided to take my tax check ...a I Got a New Toy!

Well, That?s Taken Care Of
2009-02-23 05:39:00 Well, I got the issues with my landlord taken care of, finally, so I won’t have to worry about sleeping in any of the local rv parks or anything. Just a big misunderstanding, although I have to say it’s happening more and more frequently over the past few months. However, I didn’t want ...a Well, That’s Taken Care Of More About: Blogging
Just in General
2008-11-06 22:27:00 Today has just been one of those “nothing special” days. I haven’t done anything particularly special today. I didn’t do any cooking, nor did I go out and buy a pella pan. I went to Johnnie Mars for lunch and now I’m upgrading WordPress installations to the 2.7 beta and just hanging around. I’m also ... More About: General , Blogging
WTF PayPal?
2008-11-06 07:50:00 Ok, I can see that PayPal’s customer service is a bunch of absolute crap. I have an issue with some old bank accounts being on my PayPal account. I wish to remove them, so I went and started the process. Easy enough, click, click, done, right? WRONG! For over a month, every time I try ... More About: Paypal , Blogging
Halloween?s Over
2008-11-03 03:25:00 Unfortunately, Halloween is over for the year, which means that Gothic Peach will soon be getting yet another face lift. Unfortunately, I’m running low on ideas for the theme, and since I just did a Motley Crue theme on Charity Lynn, I don’t want to do another one on here. Maybe I’ll just go with ...

Gotta Love It!
2008-06-10 21:55:00 I love having a computer with a wireless card in it. It’s so nice to be able to tap into the city’s free wireless internet and not have to actually pay for internet service. Living downtown does have it’s advantages on occasion. I’m also close to most of the utilities and hospital. LOL In any ... More About: Love , Blogging , Love it , Gotta
Enough with the Spam!
2008-06-08 19:25:00 And I don’t mean the edible variety. I swear I get spam all the time. I mean, my email address for this domain, if I didn’t have a lot of stuff that was tied to it, I’d seriously get rid of it. The spam is that bad. And all the filters on the planet can’t ...

Thank goodness!
2008-06-08 04:58:00 In light of recent events at work, where they suddenly decided after being in the building for a year and a half to start actually trying to take care of the plants in the atriums, and bringing them back to life, my allergies have gone crazy.

Hello? I?m 32!
2008-06-02 05:35:00 Ok, I am fully admitting that I am 32 years old. Why is this important? Because I am sick and tired of having acne! Now according to my doctor, the reason I have acne is because of my PCOS. Ok, fine. So what am I supposed to do about it? According to the doctor, nothing. ... More About: Blogging
And I have them why?
2008-05-31 02:46:00 I swear, I am the queen of having things I don’t bother to use. Seriously. I have a lot of books I don’t read, which is why a lot of them are going on Paperback Swap. I have a lot of other stuff I don’t even look at in my apartment which is why I’m ... More About: Blogging
No Supplemental, Thanks
2008-05-30 04:41:00 It’s so funny, at work they’re talking about benefits like we don’t already know all about them since we’ve all been there long enough to get them. But we let the people from HR ramble on about them. They kept talking about us getting supplemental life insurance to go with the insurance they automatically give ... More About: Blogging
Here Kitty Kitty
2008-05-30 03:44:00 I swear, my cat is a sweet heart, but a royal pain in the butt. I spend more money on cat supplies than one would honestly think. He’s a toy-cat, meaning he loves toys, he uses a good bit of litter, and only scoopable will do, and he will only eat one brand of cat ... More About: Blogging , Kitty
Sick of it all
2008-05-28 05:24:00 I really am. I’m sick of all the crap at work. Now they say that we have a call certification process to go through and that if we don’t pass, we’ll lose our jobs. All that is well and good, but frankly, I don’t do well with calls I know are fake. I’m seriously thinking ... More About: Blogging , Sick

2008-05-18 23:19:00 I’ve been checking out some really interesting little shops all over the internet lately. People have shops for everything from hand sewn stuffed animals to handcrafted jewelry! It’s amazing and really neat. I wish I made anything that was worth actually paying to have one of those neat little shops. I mean, I do crochet, ... More About: Love , Blogging , Love it , Gotta

Finally some Spring/Summer Weather!
2008-05-17 02:13:00 We’ve been waiting impatiently for the weather to actually bother to change to being warm. It’s been unseasonably cool this year, being it’s almost the middle of May and is still getting down into the 30’s and lower at night. Brrrrr!

If You?d Have Told Me
2008-05-15 03:22:00 If anyone would have told me a couple of months ago when Stream celebrated their 1 year anniversary of having the Road Runner contract that Road Runner would pull out of our call center, I’d have said you were crazy. I’d never have believed it because frankly, we were doing an awesome job for them. ... More About: Blogging , Told

RoadRunner is going through a slow period for the next couple of weeks, so we’re doing preshift VTO - I got today and tomorrow off. ... More About: Blogging

On the Router
2008-05-02 10:21:00 One of the nice things about spending my weekends at my best friend’s house is that she has a router already. I’m not sure what brand it is, but I do know it’s not wireless. LOL We’re both wired to the router even though we both have wireless cards in our laptops. Go figure. When I get my internet back, I’m going to get a wireless Linksys router set up on my connection so I can have both computers on, AND I’m going to make sure to secure the network. I’m not having any of my neighbors getting smart with my connection! This post was created by Charity @ Gothic Peach. On the Router
Kaneva
2008-04-30 05:43:00 Well, I’ve discovered that Kaneva doesn’t work on my new laptop. It’s supposed to work with Vista, and it does on my best friend’s computer, but it won’t on mine. Maybe there’s something in the hardware requirements that’s changed? Although we both have 1GB of memory on our laptops, and Kaneva is the only thing that won’t run. But perhaps I need to do an upgrade of the laptop memory? I’ll have to see about that because the laptop isn’t technically mine until I pay it off. LOL But I’m sure that a memory upgrade wouldn’t hurt either. This post was created by Charity @ Gothic Peach. Kaneva
Holy Cow!
2008-04-28 03:49:00 I am so glad I do not live in the San Antonio area. As I’m sitting here at work, I am trying to transfer someone to the local Time Warner office in San Antonio and just heard that the expected wait time is 1 hour 26 minutes - 2 hours. I’m going to wait on the line for a few minutes though, because I know that sometimes, that wait time is not the real wait time, especially when it is a transfer from my level of support. I tried to drop some entrecards from my desk here at work, but although I could load the entrecard website, half the sites wouldn’t load, as our proxy server blocks blogger.com websites. So I can’t drop entrecards right now. Bleh. I wish I could because I’ve been really bad about dropping my cards lately. My only problem is, besides not having access to the internet at home, I have 4 blogs at entrecard right now, and they recently started limiting how many cards you can drop from a particular IP address per day. So if you have more than... More About: Holy , Holy Cow
