{{{Bev}}} Peace to you, love. I hope your mom gets to see #99. However, IMNSVHO, her greatest accomplishment was the wonder that is you.

aaaaaagh.

I used to have an awesome UPS driver.

Working from home, I get a lot of packages. And she was (a) useful--my directory is busted, and she can't call up, but she never gave me trouble about having to call her base and have THEM call me and tell me she was outside. And (b) she was hot and dykealicious.

But after having her deliver packages to me since I started this job, she apparently took another job or something, because her last day was the other week. SAD!

And now I have a new guy. Who is not hot. And NOT USEFUL.

I was waiting around ALL DAY for a package I needed. I'm gone tomorrow, and needed the stuff in the package to do things for tomorrow's trip.

I go downstairs at 4:45pm...and there's a slip. He didn't call up. GRRR.

Worse yet, when I go online to see WHEN? It's listed as delivered! So I call up UPS...and they're like "Oh, weird. We'll figure it out and call you back in half an hour"

An HOUR later...I call UPS again. "We have no record of your earlier call. We'll call you in an hour. It may have been stolen. Or maybe it's still on the truck. He can't deliver it again, but maybe you could go pick it up at your UPS facility?". WTF!?!?! I get REAL pissy at them. If I wanted to GO GET IT, I wouldn't have had it DELIVERED. Well. THey're so sorry I called earlier and had to wait and now have to wait again. Calls are monitored for quality assurance, you know--someone will get theirs, if they promised me and didn't come through, they say! I'm like "Yeah, right".

They call me back in about 15 minutes, this time. And discover that the package is still on his truck, and he'll come deliver it to me in an hour. He had a "new helper" on his truck who put the wrong thing in.

Hrmph.

I do not have a good feeling about this new UPS guy, still.

Mostly, I'm just pissed off that it's going to be after 7pm before I have a chance to leave the fucking house, because of this.

I am an idiot. I just scheduled the 8.5 hour of massage for next Monday. Seriously contemplating asking someone(s) to move to Tuesday, which has at the moment 1.5 (but probably 3.5).

AND my last client of the day next Monday is a new person I had tonight and she seems to be a little bit of a PITA. Why do I hate myself?

Ugh. Time to go home and eat dinner. Seems fitting to eat at 10 pm when I had lunch at 4 pm. Today kind of sucked too.

So very much this.

And too that end, Steph. Drop me a line and I'll e-you a fairly simple worksheet on developing a personal mission statement.

bonny, thanks! I'll e-mail you shortly. (My reply was late b/c Monday nights are the nights I have writing class after work.)

t edit Actually, I clicked on your profile, and instead of an e-mail address, there was just your name, as a hyperlink that, when I clicked on it, opened my mail program, but didn't put an e-mail address in the "to" field. That's...weird. I checked in the BBaBB thread, and it's happened to Nilly's profile also.

Anyway, MY e-mail is (as of right now) visible in my profile, so if you have the time, I would love it if you could e-mail me the worksheet. Thanks!

OMG, shadow and smoke! They're so beautiful.

Also, {{{Beverly}}} Thinking of you and your family.

DJ- the bar where this all went down is Rush. Apparently there was a fourth, a woman. Not a likely candidate for a roofie at a gay bar. My ass't contacted the police, but they said a report had to be filed within 24 hours, so no go. Apparently his g/f doesn't believe him, and is very mad by what he did. Including making a lot of noise coming in at 3:30 (left the bar at 1:30, which is 10 min away), using the bathroom door and porch as litter box, and sleeping in said puddle on the porch for a few hours. CRAZY!! Things not in his normal schenanigans. Dunno if she doesn't believe it happened, or doesn't believe it was involuntary.

ION, I visited Circuit City to see the store closing sale. Everything was at 10% still. Except DVD's. Um. I dunno how, but I somehow got 15 movies for an average of $8.99 each. Apparently Thursday they will be making bigger cuts. If Rock Band special edition drops below 20% off, I just may have to get it.
