Cancel Service

Over the weekend I called Sirius to Cancel my service.  I told them I lost my job, figuring that would get me the results I wanted.  Instead I had to go through all of the up selling and constantly saying no I lost my job.  They even offered me the same deal I had 5 months for like $25.  I said no.  So finally the service is going to be cancelled and it turns off mid next month.  Wow, you would think I was asking for the moon & the stars all I wanted was to cancel.  They think I will be calling them back once my situation changes.  I kind of doubt it.  This was an expense that can be avoided.  I’ve already proven to myself that I can do without it.  I listen to a little bit of Lance Bass on the way home, but after a while he starts to grate on my nerves.  I used to listen in the morning but grew out of it.  I don’t want to chance my habits now and get hooked, then I would have to call back.

I haven’t made any other drastic changes just yet but there is plenty more than can be cut – cable, phone service, alarm and that is just to name a few things.  You would be amazed at what you can do without when you have to.  I just don’t want to get to that point.  I really value the alarm it’s peace of mind that the children are safe while I am away and it provides peace of mind at night time when I am sleeping. 

It’s another boring day here.  It’s cooled down, raining and feels like winter outside.  I’d sware I saw a couple of snow flakes but I think it may have just been my eyes playing tricks on me. 

I am dealing with some spyware on a machine that is highly infected.  Outside of that I am bored and anxious for 4pm the phone interview. 

Tomorrow will be the big day for the in person one and then I come back on Thursday and have a phone interview in the morning.  I know I keep saying this but I really hope that something pops soon.  The stress from not knowing is killing me.  I don’t get much sleep and really need to take a muscle relaxer.  However, I can’t until I pass a pre-employment drug test depending upon where I am going.  The MR’s are prescription and the RX expired a long time ago.  I do not want to take any chances and screw myself out of a job because I took a pill.  I know the muscle tension I have is all stress related because it’s in my upper back, shoulders and neck.  A massage might help but that costs money and I’d rather not spend it unless I have to. 

I had a nice salad last night with Taco Bell Spicy Ranch Dressing.  It was more like HOT.  However it made my salad and my mouth come alive.  Tonight I am thinking of fried chicken reheated and mashed potatoes.  It sounds good and the children will line up to get their fair share of it and I don’t give in, it’s people food. 

Speaking of which poor BLU no one would let him eat this morning.  He shares with either TAZ or Big Boy and they both were being hogs.  He sat by himself pouting.  I opened a special can of food just for him and everyone tried to take it away from him.  I told them he needs his food too.  Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.  I don’t want to make this a habit each day but it’s funny how quickly you can create a habit.  Shy Girl with her special food, she hears the can crack and just melts before my eyes.  I love them but they are expensive.

We have a new neighborhood cat and a ground hog.  The Hog is a big thing, he is not digging in the yard yet but he did eat some grass.  I am perfectly fine with that.  The yard is over grown as it is and with the wet weather I wonder if lawn boy will be able to preform service tomorrow.  I guess I will find out as soon as I get home tomorrow. 

Well were down to one hour and 15 minutes and then it will be dial in time for the phone interview.  I hope it goes well and the remainder of the day passes quickly.  I am anxious to get home.  Glee and Tosh.0 are both on tonight.  It is a good night to be lazy and relax. 

Well back to spyware and looking on the internet for a job.  Yes, it’s been another boring day here at the salt mine.  Only 3 of us are talking about getting the heck out of here.  We are the only ones who have started to take things home.  Everyone else I guess is waiting until the last minute or hoping that the owner will buy something else and keep them.  It is a far safer bet to look for a job than to sit and hold your breath.  Better to try and fail than to have no tried at all and have to start from scratch not knowing how long it will be.  At least us 3 have the jump on things, which I think is far smarter.  I’m sure there is probably another deal cooking in the background that I am not aware of but I am hell bent on getting out of here and into some place where the culture and appreciation not to mention the money are all better. 

Talk with you peeps again soon.  Have a good evening!
