I know I didn't blog yesterday,
but I warned about that way back at the beginning of the year, I
would only blog went the spirit moved me and not try subjecting
myself to some sort of schedule. Not that I was away from the page,
I did answer a comment as well as repost a couple of entries for
Throwback Tuesday over on Facebook. I know it is supposed to be
Throwback Thursday, but I play by my own rules here.
Still no winner on the blog
contest, only one guess so far and it did not get 6 of the ten
countries, however 5 of the guesses were correct so if anyone needs
hints there may be some in the first guess. Knowing me like I do,
two countries should be obvious, so that would only leave 4 to guess
at.
I am sitting here at home watching
DOOL on my laptop between spats of typing. Why oh why did they kill
off Serena Mason? Admittedly she wasn't the most beloved character on
the show, but she was the hottest. Red hair (bonus on charisma
checks) and actual curves as opposed to most of the stick figure like
females that make up the rest of the cast.
So I failed to mention that my
scam artist was back the other day asking for more money. This time
she was claiming that she was her own mom using her account and could
I send money to help get her out of jail. Boy, if there is one thing
people do not need to be doing these days is poking me over nonsense.
Far better for people who only want things from me to keep their
distance these days, I don't have the patience for it.
Nobody asked me (but nobody asks
me anything these days) but Mike Huckabee being on stage with Kim
Davis is really no better than those religious hucksters on Sunday
morning TV that beg you to send them money for their private jets and
crystal cathedrals, because God loves bling. The only reason
Huckabee was on that stage (and Ted Cruz was prowling in the
background, was to cash the check of bigots who think it is okay to
ignore the law.
So, I was just checking my
newsfeed on Facebook, which is an exercise in brain cell killing if
ever there was one, and I saw an article that there are financial
issues with some of the restaurants in the chain started by Toby
Keith. Apparently telling people how much he wants to put a boot in
the ass of a terrorist, which may be a noble endeavor, doesn't pay
the bills.
My Ipad replacement should be here
tomorrow. I say here like I live here or something, I am having is
shipped to work, which is where I do most of my living anyway. Sadly
I have all of my major stuff delivered to work, my Amazon orders
(unless I have bought a gift for someone, then it goes right to
them,)this will be a Walmart order. Little did I realize when I
first placed it, I still have one of the company credit cards linked
to my Walmart account. I am pretty sure that card has been shut off
now, there was an issue with fraud and the card. But had I know I
could have been having goodies sent to me all of the time. It would
have been Christmas at Matt's house, ordering so many packages that I
don't know what is in each one. I realize that by failing here I
have violated a few Ferengi Rules of Acquisition. Some day I will
learn.
Possible violations include;
Once you have their money ... never
give it back.
Never pay more for an acquisition than
you have to.
Opportunity plus instinct equals
profit.
Greed is eternal.
There is no honour in poverty
Dignity and an empty sack is worth the
sack.
Just to name a few. I would have
sucked at being a Ferengi.
So we had an issue at work today,
one of our people on the second shift was going to be late, she was
having a roofer over to her house to fix something, and trying to get
people to cover was like pulling teeth. That's okay though, because
I get plenty of free stuff that comes across my desk, most of which I
give to employees and I have a pretty good memory for such things.
The people that help me out are more likely to get stuff than those
that don't. I am not Ed, I am not trying to be everyone's friend,
those people that go out of their way for me I will do the same for
them.
Anyway, I am going to wrap this up,
sans the bow and shit. If you have ever seen me wrap gifts you would
know why (I am terrible at it).
