Here piggy, piggy, piggy!
January 8, 2012
As I’ve said in my previous post, it’s time to make things happen.
Yesterday, J drove me to Angeles Shooting Range, up in the Angeles National Forest, to sign up for a hunter safety course. For $10, I got my name on the class list, some class materials and some instructions on how to report for class (report with class materials completed, No. 2 pencils, clipboard and one item of blaze orange clothing. Oh, and don’t be late).
The class isn’t until February, but I’ll be ready. J is also lending me the item of blaze orange clothing so I don’t have to buy one right away.
Cellphones: A huge pain – in – the – ass
T-Mobile sold us 2 HTC Amaze 4G phones. We’ve had them 9 days and 2 days ago, J noticed that both of our screens had some kind of high tech adhesive drips on them. J tried repeatedly to remove these drips and finally took his phone back to the store. The T-Mobile employee kindly told us to f*ck off. Apparently paying $230 for a new phone doesn’t mean that you get something that was manufactured properly. J is driving me up the flipping wall on this one, but T-Mobile is in the wrong on this.
The book site that I belong to, Goodreads, sent out an e-mail regarding their 2012 reading challenge. I signed up and challenged myself to 250 books this year. Right after I hit “Okay” it proceeded to tell me that I was 4 books behind already. *sigh*
I also told myself that I was going to go to the doctor more often for regular appointments. Yesterday, I got a letter from Blue Cross/Blue Shield telling me that my primary care physician is no longer in the preferred provider network. Nice.
Tonight’s dinner: Spaghetti and meat sauce
Has it crossed your mind that maybe,just maybe, you’ve bitten off a bit much in your efforts to get your act together? Just observing and commenting from the sharpest perspective at three thousand miles distance, looking throught the Western New York cloud cover, through dirty eyeglasses. Just sayin!
Dad
You may be right, Dad. It is an awful lot, but I’m so tired of being pissed off with the way things are when I’m the one responsible for changing them.
I’ve already cleaned out two small drawers and threw out a t-shirt that had to go.
better get books that have large print and few pages – maybe lots of pictures too! I’m so far behaind that the rear is catching up with me. And it’s pretty ugly!!!
Ha ha Ma!
