Bastards!

Reason for the lack of entry earlier is because Markus switched servers on me. We’re in Atlanta now. Also, I’d like to draw your attention to the snazzy new menus above the search field. These will be modified and filled in soon, when I have time. “My philosophy” is how the menus will behave when I have time to work on the site. It’s slowly coming together. I liked the older menu style Markus had before with the dark orange that matched title. I’m still trying to get him to go back to that when he has time. Time is the common denominator here.

Ok, I got up at around 7:30am here and I had a shower and put the kettle on for coffee. I did the cbi thing and had about 50 min to myself after packing everything up. I replied to J’s Blog and got my stuff together to head outside. I got the train into work and I always get these morons they occupy the next booth up from me but face turning my way facing me. I hate that. Especially when there’s like two people on the car That put me off. So, I went to Tim’s and got my sausage breakfast sandwich. Very nice Then into the office and enjoyed that and some coffee and JT brought the donuts in and I scooped one up and we began rousting for OF. Very enjoyable Basically, it’s like we get them to try and put the pledge on a credit card or reinvoice them. There was a nonus on each credit card. 5% the first hour and all I could get are just $10 taps. So I got 2 credit cards. Then from the 2nd hour one for 2% I got one 2% credit card. It was a $20 so I got .40 cents, big deal. I made a $1.40 in bonuses. The important part of this was, we got out half an hour early and paid until 2pm. I got to Clairview station and my bus was pulling out. Bastards. I decided to walk. It was +28* walking through Superstore parking lot and I felt it. I could feel the sweat running down my back it was that hot. Anne was getting ready fixing up her hair preparing to leave to get her photo ID. I had a shower and washed the day off me and sat in front of the AC. Then under the covers and Anne left and I had a nice relaxing snooze. I think I passed out for about an hour and a half. I woke up refreshed and energized. Already to blog this then go watch hockey.

Anne comes in and she says she got the photo ID ordered and guess what? They have to mail it. This means they won’t do anything about it until Monday and they have to do the coding before they laminate the card. They said Anne should have it by Friday. Yeah right. More likely they won’t have the card ready until Monday night so it goes out in Tuesday’s mail and that means we won’t get it until another week. June 12th at the earliest. Anne needs that photo ID so she can get at the pension money she took out. Registration gave her a temporary driving license and she’s going to go in with that Monday to see if the bank will release her funds based upon that. Even though she’s dealt with the bank before and she’s on their file it’s because she’s requesting these funds under a hardship, watch the bank is going to play bad guy and deny the funds until she brings the photo ID. So by the time I’m going to get to do what I want to do, it’s going to be another 2 weeks away yet. Thanks to red tape and the mail. Bastards. 

In about 10 minutes is the hockey game. Ottawa will win this one because they are at home and probably the next one as well. This series will be going 7 games.

That’s all for now.
