Rant: Did NOT go to Bockfest, because my buddy had to work. Rave: Instead went to three local breweries and three food trucks in three days. All within 5 minutes of my girlfriend's townhome. I love this neighborhood. Rave: New camera and new chisels and tools and stuff en-route. Can. Not. Wait. Rant: Can't go to my buddy's bachelor party, I was looking forward to it.
Rave: In less than 5 months I will be sailing a 42ft Catamaran along the Dalmatian coast off Croatia. Rave: My boat licence had expired 6 months ago. I sweet talked the chick behind the counter to letting me renew for the normal fee even though I was supposed to sit a day course at the cost of $250. Rave: Have planning approval for the uber-reno, now just need final building approval and I can get started. Rant: Winter is coming. For the first morning this year there was condensation on my windscreen.
RAVE: So the swing party was amazing. It was like Sodom and Gomorrah there. A bit of an older crowd but I still fucked like crazy. In about 7 hours I fucked 5 women, Youngest was probably 35, the oldest 52. Common law wife had a good time too. She wasn't as much as a slut as I was but she got spit roasted and fucked the host of the party probably 3 times. Were definitely looking forward to the next one.
Rant: Been sick since Friday with migraines and a fever. Rant: Moving house sucks. Especially trying to find one that isn't an over priced shitbox that is tiny for what it's worth. Rant: Fucking cockroaches. DOesn't matter how often I spray these little fuckers just keep appearing. My real estae agents are hopeless so hopefully that problem solves itself when I move.
Rant: Stupid AT&T. I have the BlackBerry Z10. Verizon and T-Mobile released the new OS that will allow Android apps to run native last Fall, and some AT&T people have it. So, I was trying to find out when AT&T would push the release to me. This is the actual transcript of my chat with their technical support.* Spoilered for long. Spoiler You asked: When will AT&T release OS10.2.1 for the Z10? Thank you for your patience! Your AT&T Representative will be with you shortly. Welcome! You are now chatting with 'Agent Dude ' R-o-M: ok Agent Dude : Hey R-o-M! Welcome to chat! You're wondering when a new OS will be released? Sure thing I can definitely understand awaiting the new features of a new os version. And can definitely provide you will all the information I have at my disposal! Agent Dude : First thing I would need to know what is the concerning phone or device you would want the latest OS information on? would it perhaps be for your BBZ10? R-o-M: Yes. When will 10.2.1 be released for AT&T here in Georgia? Seems everyone has it except this area. Agent Dude : I can definitely check that information out for you, and for your device. R-o-M: ok Agent Dude : Perfect the OS for the device is indeed 10.2.1 for the z10. R-o-M: Yes. Thank you for repeating everything I am asking. Can you tell me when it will be pushed OTA to me? Agent Dude : Absolutely R-o-M, I will check my resources and get the most accurate information available for you. R-o-M: Great. That will absolutely be very helpful. I can definitely use that information. Agent Dude : Absolutely, I will get that information to you as soon as possible. R-o-M: Super. That is definitely what I need. Agent Dude : As in Georgia you mean in Europe correct? R-o-M: Um, no. Georgia, 13th state of the Union. United States. Atlanta is the Capital. Agent Dude : Alright and do you have access to a wifi access point at the moment? R-o-M: yes R-o-M: Are you still there? Agent Dude : Indeed, I am still checking that information out right now. What OS do you currently have on your blackberry z10? R-o-M: I have 10.1.0.2019 Agent Dude : And when you tried to update your device, what message does it give you? R-o-M: The message reads "You have the latest software." Agent Dude : Alright, so upon checking the information I found. When an OS will be made available will be dealt with by the provider itself, that being blackberry. In our database it states it has already been released, it having exclusivity in your area has not been disclosed. R-o-M: Yes. Blackberry released 10.2 some time ago. However, AT&T is responsible for sending the OTA updates. And, AT&T is my carrier. Blackberry says I have to get release from AT&T. Agent Dude : Alright, so there is not a specific date for the release. R-o-M: Can you give me a hint? Agent Dude : As of right now the update is currently undergoing tests to ensure the best user experience possible. as soon as the testing is complete is when the update will be released, this is as of february 28th 2014. *The guy was not supportive and had no technical knowledge. Dammit.
Rave: The hot lab guy who I have had a crush on for the last five years gave me a big farewell hug today. I damn near melted into a puddle on the spot. Best day ever.
Rant: Day 3 of being sick. At least I didn't hock up a bright green loogie this morning. Also, unrelated, but today is my 3rd double in a row. LUCKY ME
Rave: It's kinda fun putting people in check 15 minutes after walking through the door. Don't send out angry E-Mails asking why something hasn't been done when A: it already has and B: it was sent to you yesterday. Check your E-Mails. Rant: My boss had to have yet another talk with me about my "tone", with HR accompanying us via speaker phone. Rave: He was rolling his eyes the whole time and during the call we played chess on the board he has in his office.
Rave: Left work at a reasonable time today. Made dinner and cookies (snickerdoodles) and watched an episode of House of Cards with Boyfriend. Rant: Brought work home with me. Trying to write this report but I'm pretty sure I'm the sleepiest bitch in the world right now. The keyboard is starting to look suspiciously like a pillow and I'm well into long-blink territory. I'm pretty sure it's a lost cause.
Rave: Just got back from Queens of the Stone Age and Nine Inch Nails. Holy snapping duckshit batman were NIN awesome. Both played a set of 80min straight up with QOTSA coming back out for a couple of songs. NIN absolutely blew it away though, can't believe that Head Like a Hole is 25 years now.
Rant Fucking online classes. I'm studying for my test tomorrow, and I'm viewing a table where I'm suppose to determine the sensitivity etc of a test. The fun part is, the answer to the example isn't given, so I don't know if I fuck it up or get it right. Whats the fucking point of an example if I don't know what the answer is?
Rant: Turns out the Hep B vaccine I got in high school isn't good for life after all. Rave: I found out because I requested they test my Hep B immunity - not because I have hepatitis. My liver is a-okay.
I have puked twice since I got to the office this morning. I've been told to go home but.....I have to wait for the "am I gonna puke again or not" feeling to pass so I don't have to pull over.
Rave: Wife and I got a new apartment. Super nice, new and much bigger than our current one. Rant: Moving in 10 days. Trying to find a moving company has been, well, trying. Rant: Have to do most of the packing myself as wife's final final is coming up. Rave: Dark Souls II is out today! Rant: Told wife, and I quote "Anything you need done tomorrow let me know now, because after 11, it ain't getting done. Dark Souls II is out. So if you need me to make calls, you need some cock, whatever, got to get on that." She apparently didn't need cock. Damn, foiled again. Rave: Been getting laid fairly regularly. Thank God. Rant: I forgot how bad condoms suck. Rave: Overall, while things could be a little better, they could certainly be a lot worse, so I'll take that as a win.
Rant: Is there any particular reason it's so fucking hard to buy a new cell phone? Why does it take 20 minutes to activate? Why is it when I walk into a store and say "I want to upgrade to an iPhone 5s and just renew my current contract" the person helping me hears "please try to sell me every other phone in your store, before telling me you're out of iPhones, so you waste both of our time?" And why is it not legal to hit these people? Seriously. All I fucking want is to upgrade and keep my current (unlimited data) contract. This process should take 5 minutes. Update my account, switch the number, done. Why is that so fucking hard? Rave: Dark Souls II and a likely snow day tomorrow. Epic timing win.
Stupid work related rant: I have a coworker who is driving me fucking insane. I don't think I've ever met someone who so consistently explodes over such non-issues. Today I asked him if he had something I needed to use that gets passed around all the time and he just immediately imploded. It was one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen. I don't give a flying fuck if he likes me or not. I don't like him and think he's a moron and a jackass, but I can at least try to be civil since we work together. Whenever these random outbursts come on up he talks to me with this 'you just don't fucking get it do you?' attitude that makes me want to punch him. It comes up over literally nothing. Not even pet peeve/slight irritation kind of stuff. It's also not like we have some kind of long history that explains it. Dude needs to be on meds. Apparently he's trying to quit drinking (and a few drugs) so that partially explains it, but holy shit, you're an adult, start fucking acting like one. Rant/Rave: My sister has become the biggest name dropper of ever. She's been constantly barraging me with texts about how she just met such and such celebrity and is going to hang out with x celeb. It's kind of annoying, but I'm really happy for her as it's good to see she won't be living the waitress in LA cliche. At least for the time being. Rave: Got out of a speeding ticket. The cop claimed I was going 66, which was weird because I saw him following me for over a mile and was not going over 50 mainly because you know, there was a fucking cop behind me. Still, he said he looked at my driver's record and after a small lecture said he'd let me off with a warning. Everyone around here talks about how they hate the cops, but I've been lucky as hell. I have a friend who had to go to jail for a week because of public urination so I know they can be assholes. If he whipped it out in front of kids or something like that I would understand, but this was walking home from a bar after 2 a.m. and he slipped behind a tree because everything was closed. Rave: This is the best time off year. In 2 months it is going to be way too hot, but the weather is perfect right now.
Rave?/Rant?: Running into ex-boyfriend with new boyfriend. Awkward times, but I'm much happier now. Felt kind of bad for my ex though since I majorly upgraded. Hopefully he isn't too crushed again.
Rave: Snow day and Dark Souls II! Should be a great day! Rant: ...Except "snow day" in my wife's world means she gets the day off and gets to sleep all day while I take care of the kid. Sometimes I wonder how she does it when I'm not here. It seems like if the kid poops, or needs a bath, or we put her down to sleep and she won't go out, my wife wants me to handle it because "you're so good with her!" I mean, I am. But still, I just wonder how she does it when I'm not here, because when I am here, she pretty much throws the kid at me and does everything possible to NOT deal with her. When I call her on it, she turns it around into a crazy guilt trip about how much she does around the house, and how she is busy and not just ignoring the kid for no reason. She flat out refuses to admit the obvious . I just want her to admit: "I love my daughter but she drives me nuts after a while and when you're around if prefer you take care of her." She thinks it makes her a bad mom of her kid gets on her nerves or if she just needs a break, so she won't ask for one, she'll just make up excuses rather than admit the truth, and it drives me nuts. Rave: Upside to the above is that my wife will scrub the house, cook, and do literally ANY chore as long as it doesn't involve watching our kid. Our house has never, ever been this clean. I can't think of a single parent that can say "my house is cleaner since we had a kid." She never mowed the lawn or used the snow thrower until we had a kid. She said she had a grass allergy, so she couldn't mow the lawn. Last summer? She mowed the lawn almost every other week. I'm thinking the basement and downstairs bedroom/bathroom needs cleaned today. Fuck it, if I can't play my game, I'm at least going to get a clean fucking house out of the deal.
