A Battle Won

I called up the Director’s office, but apparently the Director is such an important guy that I have to write a letter formally requesting a meeting with him first, then outline the reasons why. Good grief. :eyeroll:

So I wrote a nice long letter explaining everything: naming names, describing Devil Woman’s long and sordid history, and my request to be immediately transferred either to another division altogether, or…..

I’m alive… barely

I’ve been as busy as a beaver lately, but now that I’ve set aside a few minutes to blog here, I can’t remember what I did five minutes ago, let alone what I’ve been doing for the past week. My head’s in a fog, I’m chronically tired, and the whole world seems hell bent on working my very last nerve.

So, what to write about? Well, I’m…..

Stumbling My Way Home

Is it me, or does the mass of social networking (or Web 2.0) sites out there seem to be such an overwhelming chaos of convoluted information that even Einstein would have trouble making sense of it all?

Unfortunately though, not content to see 3 or 4 daily readers perusing my blog (despite my anti-social tendencies), I decided to make a journey through the social networking universe and see what…..

Ok, I think I got it now…

I’ve been troubleshooting my blog to see what’s been causing the added load time, and then ended up spending a couple of bucks so I could correctly send pics to my blog from my cell phone, which previously kept resulting in broken links and improper syntax. I think finally got it right though….

By the way, blogging by cell has been made possible using a 2 year old…..

Is this heaven?

Wow. I took this snapshot from my cell at a park right next to the apartments I’ve been checking out. The town here is so different from the ghettos I usually see that it seems to have been dropped from the sky.

Those Darned Tweetheads

I really like Twitter and what it offers, but they’ve been getting on my nerves lately. IMs have been getting dropped, service has been erratic, and the lag time in sending tweets or checking my own Twitter page makes me think I’m on dial-up again. When it does work I love it, since it provides an cool alternative for sideblogging/asides, a relatively new phenomenon where bloggers…..

@#$% Verizon

Verizon sucks big hairy monkey’s butt.

I had a battery ordered from an eBay store to replace the dying one I had on my cell now, and I figured it was safe enough because the seller had a near perfect rating from thousands of buyers. Otherwise I’d have to get it from Verizon, which charges a hefty 40 bucks for the same battery (WT*??) This way I was getting…..
