If I recall correctly, Vanna was on last night's Wheel of Fortune. Pat Sajak is doing celebrity wheel of fortune.
My Monday plans just changed. I can't go see Muffasfa Monday, as I'm now scheduled to work that day!
I would say I'm not quite as brown as my previous avatars but a little more brown than the one I'm using at the time I'm typing this message. But all of that probably changes based on the seasons and what I'm drinking.
As long as what you're drining doesn't turn you green!
I had some ice coffee in the fridge too long. That probably would turn me green if I drank too much of it.
This is the first day of the rest of my life. So was yesterday but I totally wasted it eating snacks and watching the Toob.
Pretty much the same today, too.
Life is good.
This is the first bed time for the rest of my life!
Complaint: Lost in the mail: I'd ordered a flat (12 cans) of Mardarin Orange slices for inclusion in Jello. I like the smaller 8.25 ounce cans because it's just the right amount for a bowl of Jello. Those small cans are hard to find right now. Groceries around here don't have them, Amazon doesn't have them, but I found just one flat available, online at the WalMart site. Yay! Ordered them, tracked their progress via UPS and they supposedly got all the way to "Out for Delivery" yesterday but didn't arrive, and today the tracking said that they were now 1000 miles away in Oklahoma City.
Then tonight I get a refund and an apology from WalMart. So, I guess that if I want Mandarin Orange slices in my Jello I'm going to have to get the bigger (15 oz.) cans and snack on the remainders that don't swim in the Jello. And since unfettered Mandarin Orange slices jump into your mouth faster than peanuts, the consumption rate almost doubles. Gets expensive.
They last much longer hidden away in cans or captured in Jello.
Complaint: If DAZ doesn't have a decent sale on the + club, I'm out after Jan. 2. I can't go for the $9.99/month. (really that's $10, what can you get for a penny these days?) So, $120/year? Nope. Even last years sale price was difficult to do on my income. They don't even seem to have the annual fee anymore!
'Nother complaint: What's with the store lately? Lots of swirlies in my wishlist, on the main store page...
Have you considered getting a bigger bowl and much more Jello?
Yes, but I have an unreasonable fear of it coming to life and evolving into "The Blob" or a fugitive blancmange from a Monty Python skit. I'd rather eat it while it's small than the other way 'round.
I dreamt last night I was stuck in a dystopian city. I wanted to go home but couldn't figure out how. I couldn't figure it out until I got up to visit the bathroom.
I just had the same thing happen to me from Amazon. The package was out for delivery and never showed, so went online to track it, and it was in route to San Francisco, and I'm in Ohio. How did we go from out for deliver to on the plane going to the West Coast?
Here is a watercolor painting WIP. I been drawing it so I can paint it when I get home and have access to my brand new watercolor paints I got for Christmas.
..."hub and spoke" system.
It's why sometimes when I select a flight from Portland OR to Milwaukee WI, I find myself overlying my destination and connecting in Detroit, Atlanta, or Charlotte NC. to a Milwaukee bound flight. (depending on the airline).. Cargo airlines and ground services do the same. With packages it can also depend on what Amazon facility it originates from and where the closet hub to it is..
I once had some computer components sent to to me from Louisiana via UPS which first went up to St. Louis, then on to Ohio, after which they headed westbound through Chicago Dallas, Denver and Boise (making transfers in each), before finally arriving in Portland. Why they just didn't go to Dallas first and skip the "scenic route" is a mystery only UPS knows for sure.
There's a strike at some Amazon warehouses. Maybe that's affecting some deliveries.
...ah, forgot about that
Do I want to do indoor walking or read a book?
What was I going to do before break ends?
Non-Complaint: I grabbed Lully's Color's! They're in the rotating freebies right now.
Well, that's it for me! I am SICK AND TIRED of being happy and content! I need to go find something to complain about. <grin>
Complaint: Tuesday would have been the last day of one of my critically needed prescriptions, so I had to take an UBER from home ($$) to make an emergency trip into town to get my needed prescription today(Monday). Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but the local ancient-person's bus only runs on weekdays, and I have to make an appointment the day before, for it to stop at my house. I didn't know my prescription was ready until after the bus office closed on Friday. Normally I could have called on Monday for a Tuesday pickup, but when I tried that, I was told the bus wasn't running on Tuesday (New Year's Eve day). So, there it is... Emergency run via UBER on Monday.
Yet another unexpected, last minute, year-end expense.
Non-complaint: Yay, I now have all my prescriptions and probably won't need the hospital this week.
And since I was dipping yet again into my savings, I made a mini-adventure of it and took a 2nd UBER ($) farther into town for a breakfast at my favorite hole-in-the-wall breakfast restaurant. Mmmm... grease galore.
And near the hole -in-the-wall breakfast restaurant was a Chinese take-out restaurant and a Subway sandwich shop. So I now have Szechuan Chicken, Fried Rice, Egg Roll, and two footlong subs for New Year's munching. And of course I needed a 3rd UBER to get home from the middle of the city.($$+) But it was a mini-adventure so... Wheee...
Checked lighting deals. One of the Victoria 9 bundles was in there. Not enough seconds left to put item in cart before deal expired.
It's New Years Eve!
Complaint: My 2-level verification seems to be broken for PayPal.
I've futzed around for two days trying to get into my account. Everything seems to be correct but I don't get a text with the 6-digit code. I tried the "Other Options" and they all lead back to having to get a text with a 6-digit code to jump the last hurdle. I can't find a way to contact a human being or get further help without having to receive a text on my cell phone. A good example of a "Catch22".
My login name and password are correct and the site displays that it's texting to my cell phone (for example: xxx-xxx-x123). Boogers. Sometimes I hate technology.
When I did finally get through on voice telephone, the automated system froze my account and it opened a complaint ticket, and cheerfully told me they would look into it within 45 days.
They now have recorded proof that I can swear vociferously when provoked.
And now because my PayPal account is potentially frozen for 45 days, I spent the next hour or so going to my UBER account and other online store accounts to change my payment method from PayPal to something else.
Happy New Years Eve! Unless it is 2025 when you are reading this, then Happy New Year's!
Happy 2025, if you are alive, if you can survive, you may find...
In the year one million and a half,
When mankind is enslaved by giraffe...
and if you have at least one kitty, you might find something in the litter box(es) that show your kitty is eating their food.
