Bad Luck Sunday

Hi everyone and welcome in. 

Today was one of those days for me.  I woke up to feed the cats at their normal time and I just wanted to go back to bed.  Hey, I’m on vacation so I’ve got the option so I took it.  Damn that felt so good! When I woke up around 10a I knew I had a box of Eggo Blueberry Thick & Fluffy Waffles.  I polished the whole box off and had a very large glass of milk.  I put Blueberry Syrup on the waffles and knew that when the sugar high wore off I would be drowsy again. 

Back in my room I powered on my phone and got caught up on what little bit there was in my personal email and notifications.  Work email is still turned off.  Since it was later in the day I plan to do my normal Sunday tasks on Monday. 

Curses but I have 2 outstanding issues @ AT&T so I attempted to remedy them.  I got on the phone merry go round with their customer service.  My fuse is very short with them and I let some supervisor have it.  I started cussing and he got very firm with me and told me I had to keep the call professional.  I told him my problem, professionally.  His response was I don’t know how to fix it.  That’s when I told him to FUCK OFF and hung up on his ass.  Damn that felt so good but I hated that I got to that point.  I was all set to port away from AT&T but considering that my issues all stemmed from me acting out of anger, I thought better take a step back.  I did and inquired about the large credit balance on my account and what would happen to it.  I was told that they would deduct my current months bill from it and then it would just vaporize.  Well glad I asked.  Now I know that I am stuck riding out a few more months with AT&T to use their money and then I will likely part ways with them.  No one was able to resolve my issues after multiple calls, talking with multiple departments and spending hours on this.  I eventually gave up and resorted to letter writing.  I will get a call on Tuesday since Monday is a holiday and hopefully that will bring about an end to this mess.  I just want to do something else with my time other than work with AT&T.  I am starting to think that AT&T stands for All Talk and Turmoil. 

I wound up watching some porn and after I got off, I switched to normal TV and eventually wound up going back to bed.  I woke up around 3p.  I wanted Nachos and headed to a sports bar but damn if they weren’t closed when I got there.  I wound up going to Denny’s because they have nachos but service was so slow that I never did get waited on and wound up walking out.  I wound up at IHOP and had Fish, Shrimp and Fries for supper.  It wasn’t bad but service at IHOP wasn’t a whole lot better.  I got waited on right away and got a drink but my food took forever to get to me.

Finally I was able to return home and I was never so glad to see Mora greet me at the door.  I got food for her and her brother passed out.  Then started working on getting my medicine set out for the week ahead.  I felt pretty lousy from a mood stand point.  It was a little depression mixed with disgust.  I emptied out the cat’s litter boxes and took care of cleaning their drinking water fountain and putting a new filter in it. 

I’ve got my complaint letter off to AT&T and submitted electronically.  Backed up my iPhone and loaded on my music from my iTunes library.  Laundry is in the dryer and I am just waiting for it to go off. 

I don’t really want to go upstairs and I know I am not nearly ready for bed but it’s actually bedtime now 9p.  Mora has already come to get me and I told her that I am working on a few things.  She is sleeping in a chair outside my office and when she wakes up I know she will come nag me again.  She’s got my best interest at heart and I love her so much. 

My friends haven’t reached out about any dinner/get together plans for the holiday like they normally would.  Not sure if they aren’t doing anything this year or if they are pissed at me because I called them out for my Easter invite that I got that didn’t include a time.  I’m super lonely and being around other people would be very helpful but I am not calling and nosing my way into something.  If they are having a get together and want to invite me that’s fine.  I learned a long time ago don’t invite yourself or beg for an invite.  If people want to invite you they will and if they don’t they won’t.  Pretty simple stuff.  Besides that I don’t want to be somewhere that I am really not wanted.  That’s not helpful for anyone. 

I’ve got a small list of things to do that I may work on next after I publish this.  I also know there is an item lingering at work that I really need to knock out to help myself but I am kind of resistant to doing so.  It seems I always wind up working when I am on vacation, that gets old and no one else does it. 

I hope that you had a good day and I really appreciate you dropping by.  Looks like I am off to get into mischief.  I just hope that I am able to force myself to get moving come early morning or nothing will get done tomorrow either.  Take care!

It is just one of those days. I feel you. Really. The bad keeps happening like snowball rolling.

We all have those days. I do believe that I have a black cloud hanging over me that follows me. While my life is not all doom and gloom, some good things actually do happen. I feel that the bad tends to outweigh the good. I've tried doing good deeds both at work and in my personal life - think of that old adage you get what you give. However, no good deed goes unpunished. Often things blow up or come back to bite me. Still I press on and look forward to the good days. The smallest things matter to me like someone holding a door for me, seeing a hot guy, passing a cop speeding and not getting pulled over or just waking up to see my sweet Rudy (my cat) laying on top of me smiling at me and making biscuits. Here's hoping some good is headed your way! Take care and thanks for stopping by.
