More camera phone pics

This is my first picture. It kind of scares me.
image

I finally put the plastic in the windows. Look its crystal clear. Just in time for the nasty weather. It is snowing and windy now.

My mom's husband found this lamp for me at a flea market. The piggy is a lighter that shoots flames out of his nostrils.

My roommate

I made this the background on my phone. The plant hangs over into my bed so its sort of like I am one with it.

Oops almost forgot this one. Got this calendar for my roommates birthday. Its called Extraordinary Chickens. Yes it would have been a great gift for (e:mike), but he doesn't use calendars. You guys should see these chickens. I had no idea chickens could be so exotic. One of them looks like an Arctic chicken or something because of his downlike plumage.

My new phone

I did it and went to get a new phone today. Screw you CRICKET, I'm free of your crap now.

My new phone is so cool. Best of all when my phone rings the ring doesn't make me want to slit my wrists. $10 after rebate.

Pics I can upload to the computer via text messaging. Here is a tester.


image

This means that all the times of thinking "oh I wish i had a camera so i could post this on estrip", i'll have one.
How fun!

I went with Verizon. The phone is superclear and amazing reception in my apt. What a relief. I went with a 450 min a month plan which i have decided isn't enough, so i'll have to upgrade to 900.

Traveler

Here are a few jumbled photos of my travels on the grey hound and on a Boeing 757. I didn't feel like taking any other pics of my trip. Next time...

Phone hell

This is just cause I need to bitch right now. Maybe I should take up stiching?

These stupid companies are at the point of making me want to blow something up. Oops are we allowed to say that? I was just kidding I swear. Please don't send homeland security after me.

There is nothing that gets me more aggravated than calling companies only to get caught up in a complicated system of push 1 for this, 2 for this, 3 for that.

HSBC has this new security key code I have to enter to do online banking. I forgot it twice. They only give you two opportunities to enter code and if they are incorrect they lock it forever until you call the 800# to have them unlock it. Once it is unlocked you have to reset everything and then call them back. They then ask you a million questions and keep you on the phone for like fifteen minutes with someone who doesn't speak english all that well.

Then I decide to pay my CRICKET bill two days early. Usually I don't remember until they send me a text message the day before it is due to remind me. I can't stand this government phone anymore. The service is horrible and I can't even have a converstation with my boyfriend without dropping the call or not being able to hear or some crap. I get only 30 minutes of roaming time a month which is almost nothing considering if you call and get someone's voicemail and hang up right away they charge you two minutes for. They also delete minutes everytime you text. So for $60/mo I pay for my aggravation.

To make things worse CRICKET has changed their payment policy. If you are one day late they charge you $15. If you are three, goodbye service. They use to allow extensions but now on top of crummy service they are unbearably rigid. You can't call and talk to someone about it because they force you to pay your bill before allowing you the luxury of talking with one of their phone bitches. I owe $30 in late payments now and I have decided to not give them any money at all. I'm getting a new phone. Does anyone have a plan that doesn't suck?

A Guide to Elegance

I think that I have achieved success in making my own business. From my craigs list ad online I was able to find a woman who wants me to clean for 10 hrs a week. That in combination with the jobs I allready have will provide a very steady income until I graduate. Yay for me and creating a solution to my financial problems. Still I have a bumpy road ahead, but I think that I have improved my direction.

My new client is from California. I worked at her home today and cleaned two of her bathrooms and the kitchen while washing the bed clothes and making the beds. Not bad I would say for 6 hours considering I washed all the walls and stuff. She told me that in California they normally have the cleaner live in the house and that she has found that they don't normally do that here in buffalo. Maybe I will if I get booted from where I am living I'll become a livein Butler. This is the first time I have been asked to do someone's personal laundry. It seems so strange to me, cause for me I would never imagine anyone else doing my laundry. She has two dogs that are both fun and annoying. One is constantly running around worried and barking. Cuties though.

Now that I got some cash I can do some light Christmas shopping. Got a few ideas after window shopping in the "village". My friend wants this book:

A Guide to Elegance: For Every Woman Who Wants to Be Well and Properly Dressed on All Occasions

I called Talking Leaves to see if they had it. I couldn't help but giggle like a little girl as I read the title over the phone.

One and two and three and four

I'm back to working out again and have found that I am addicted. If I don't work out I get all this "body stress" and the only way to release it is to go to the gym. I have noticed there are several people who are addicted. This one girl is ALWAYS in the gym, she seriously can't stop. Tread mill, stationary bike, euliptical thingy etc. She is there for hours. Then there is this guy that always works out his top body but forgets about the rest. Any day now he is just going to fall over from being too top heavy. Thank god there aren't any grunters around anymore...

Its wierd that I stopped working out to begin with. It was actually painful my muscles going through atrophy.

Spinach is back and I'm loving it!

milf

Yesterday I finished cleaning the apartment. You would think it would be quick and easy with a small place, but it isn't. The worst part is the rabbits hay that I have to pick up by hand cause it clogs the vacuum, but it still gets clogged and I have to stop and take it apart all the time. All the windows are clean except the outside panes which I can't get to. I cleaned all the walls including the ceiling of my bathroom...gross. Now I still have to caulk the shower and plastic the windows. These last two jobs both suck.

So yesterday I finally posted a craigslist ad about house cleaning. Got a response this am. It is kind of freaky. I don't know this person, maybe they will hack me to pieces for fun. He said he wants to work with me with the cleaning, which is fine, but again it freaks me out. My ad was ambigous to my sex, so maybe he was hoping for a sexy milf?

Cleaning the bat cave

Today I spent hours cleaning, but didn't get very far. The mini-blinds have never been cleaned and had years of dust accumulated on them. Yuck. I couldn't stand it anymore and it was the first thing I wanted to do on the start of my vacation.


image
These blinds are so embarrassing. I can't believe I'm posting them on here.

image
Half way cleaned. Spent one full hour on each blind.

image
These dead crusty spiders I found behind my altar. It freaked me out, maybe they like the chanting and decided to die there.


Then there was a bat in the hallway that I saw as I was taking some garbage out. He was flying around and I screamed and ran inside. Actually I wasn't sure it was a bat at that point it could have been a bird. So then I had to go and open the door downstairs and then I was sure it was a bat. Here is him being bat like.
image


We had to poke him with a broom to get him to move. This was after creating a plastic shield to make sure he wouldn't fly up the stairs towards our apartment. He went into a fighting stance and then fell to the ground after a second poke.
image

I'm not sure if he was playing dead or what, but we got him in a box and outside where he is now on the front step. He must have been sick or something. Really they were very gentle pokes.
