The idioticy never ends...

I went online to order a new purse.

I saw it and I had to have it.

I used paypal and placed the order.

I waited and waited and waited…

I checked the mail everyday, normally I check it once every two weeks.

I finally decided that I should have had it by now so I checked the package tracking and saw my mistake…

I had put ½ my old address and ½ my new address which does not exist so my purse tried to come to me and then went back to the company.

I then opened my e-mail to see if I could pay an additional shipping charge and have them resend it.

There it was… an email from the company about 10 days old saying that they had an incorrect address.

The irony… I was checking the wrong mail.

I finally got my purse.

Mixed Up

You know it is tradition to get up early and open presents in my family. My Grandpa used to get us up at about 5am and then he passed the torch to my sister who has now taken the roll up getting us up at 5am to open presents. I don’t remember the jingle bells being that annoying when my grandpa used to do it, but I was younger then.

Anyway I hit the jackpot this year and I will blog about that later. (I get spoiled every year… still…maybe this is part of the reason neither my sister or I want to have kids, because then we would stop being spoiled and they would spoil the kids). In my pile of presents my sister got me some “Lush” tins, well I did not pay attention and I smelled them they smelled delicious. So I opened it and put the lip gloss on my lips. Later after walking Sable and having breakfast I grabbed the other tin and put it on my lips… even though it smelled great it tasted like ick… I was certain I would not be wearing that one anymore. Later my sister asked how I liked them and I said you know the one called “Let Them Eat Cake” was great, but the Snow Fairy one smelled good but did not taste so good. She looked at me and started cracking up…that is because that one is perfume.

She was still laughing as I tried to explain, my body was in motion but my brain was still zzz….

Anyway so now I love them both…
Not only are my lips smooth and delicious, but I smell great too.

Foamy Wraith

I got this new toothpaste; I saw the commercial on TV and knew I wanted to try it. It looked like it would really work. It is called Aqua Fresh Iso-Active and it foams. So I get some and bring it home and I have to try it right away. So I go to put it on my brush and it looks like green gel. I started brushing and it started foaming…. And foaming…there was so much foamy wraith in my mouth that it was just pouring out of my mouth and into the sink. Pretty soon the bathroom looked like one of those foam dance pits. The more I brushed, the more foam was created…I think I was brushing for 30 minutes to get it all out. So it seems I may of put a little too much on my brush… I think i will try a little less tomorrow.

Speaking of foamy wraith:
Do you like Foamy the Squirrel?

A Message from Sable:

Overtime

Yesterday turned out to be a good day. I did not think in light of the economy and the cutting of jobs and overtime that we were going to get Christmas bonuses this year. Money is always a good thing especially when you are not expecting it.

Then as I was leaving last night I was talking to my boss and telling her I wish I could work Saturday and get my some stuff done. She looked at me and said go ahead. She said I could work the overtime as much as I needed. I am sorry I don’t mean to sound greedy but when I got divorced and paid for a house on my own for a year and lawyers I had depleted my savings account. So now that I am independent it is important to me to be “set financially” I like to have my own money in my pocket and money in savings for emergencies. This overtime is just a bonus.

Anyway what was I talking about….oh yeah….
I am guessing I have over 1000 people in my queue, which is job security, but that is 1000 people/families that collections efforts have failed on and are about to lose their home. I don’t care who you are even if you are a scrooge; you have to feel bad when people lose their home. No matter if it is a trailer, a mansion or a shoe… to them it is still home and nothing says Merry Christmas like foreclosure. I am thinking that is why I am not in the Christmas spirit this year.

I need to get gifts for my mom, dad and grandma…but what do you get for the people who have EVERYTHING. Tomorrow I have to go to the mall…I hate the mall and even hate it more this time of year when stores are so crazy. I like to know what I want to get before I go so I can get in and get the hell out. Speed shopping is my kind of shopping, I know… how un-female of me. Whatever, there are just more important things to do with my time.

Well I am off to work for a little while, and I am going to take Sable with me… that big building is kinda creepy when I am the only one there, I hear all kinds of noises. It’s an old historic building so who knows…I might not be alone “spooky” If there is ghosts there I hope they help me get my work done.

Say Thanks!

XEROX IS DOING SOMETHING GREAT

If you go to this web site:

http://www.letssaythanks.com/

you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq.

You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services.

How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!!

It is FREE and it only takes about 10 seconds.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these? Whether you are for or against the war, our soldiers over there need to know we are behind them.

We can never say enough thank you's.

Thanks for taking to time to support the US Armed Services!

Is today over yet?

Yeah today felt like this....

I feel so frustrated today; I don’t know what is wrong with me. Today was the first big snow fall of the year and it is amazing how some people forget how to drive in the snow every single summer.

Sable had fun making paw prints is the snow, again I think she is designing some crop circles for the mother ship to come pick her up, but she tries this every winter…so far she is still stuck with me.

Then I get to work and they have upgraded our Windows so the ours emails lost the privacy statement and they moved all the applications that were on the desktop into a folder called “Application” I have another new password so I think the brings the total to 4850 now. I lost all my printers so I was looking to see if they issued us slate tablets and chisels, since they count the amount of pages we print every month… when I decided to call the helpdesk and ask WTF…? He asked me if I read the 2nd attachment to the 4th email they sent out about the upgrade… (There was a long silence on my end) so he shadowed my computer and got me connected.

Today was also the day for whiners, I don’t know if I am supposed to feel sorry for them for getting in over their head financially or to start plotting revenge on the loan officers that pushed them into the loan anyway. I am what you call a loan modification specialist… I am desperately trying to fix the damage… sometimes people are just nasty and mean and I have to send them to foreclosure. Believe me when I tell you I have heard it ALL… Sometimes I have to come home and just have a drink. Maybe by the time this mess is all fixed I will have to join AA.

If you have not noticed my second blog I had taken this photography class but I ran out of stuff to take pictures of since I have not gone anywhere and now it is getting cold and snowy, so I decided to start a project on that blog. I am doing the ABC’s of me. So I am taking some pictures to practice my newly learned skills. My grand plan of this project is to get better. But who knows… now I am just idiot girl with a camera.

So anyway I don’t know why I am so flustered today, maybe it is a lack of sex. Oh and my vibrator broke, so that has pissed me off… I guess I will have to order a new one. A Christmas gift to myself!
