Damn you Comcast! Damn you to hell!

Hold on one second, I have to figure this out. I guy I work with had Comcast come out and rerun his wires because they screwed something up in his new house. Turns out, when they are installing the upstairs cable the drill into the down spot. Well, a guy comes out puts a patch on it this friend of mine calls it good and that’s it.

Last week he gets a call from Comcast asking for a confirmation on a settlement. Under $1000, no paperwork needed, over and you need paperwork. My friend says whatever it was $998.00 and again calls it good.

Just this week I get a double bill from them. Ever since we moved when we call they say we owe nothing, bill comes and 2 months due… We just made a payment for March and Aprils bill on the 10th. And now they say we owe April and May?

Today my friend got a letter from Comcast, with a check for $998. Guess I know why I was double billed now.

Random blog is random

Terrible night tonight, very frustrating. I find myself with much trouble following a single line of thought to a final conclusion. I keep getting derailed into and abysmal reflection of the life I have crafted for myself. I will just give highlights:

-Why is it people cannot figure out how to check basic things before calling me to work on them. 50% of the calls I get would go away if they just checked the e stop button on the machine.

-Why is it I work, bring home most of the money and yet still feel like I have to do house work? My wife works 3 days a week average and that is even from our house, so why?

-Bea Arthur Died and all I could think about was “Oh. Maude died.” Her best roll ever. "God'll getcha for that, Walter."

-Why do people keep asking when am I coming back to WoW, how about cause I don’t want to play anymore?

-Where am I going to come up with the money to get a new car…

-Why did I come in to work, I should have called sick…

-What will I BBQ this week end? How about steak… nope to pricey… chicken? Boring… AH FISH! Oh wife hates fish…

Yeah they just keep looping around in random order, maybe one day it will make more sense.

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar...

OK so I have been feeling rather tired and depressed for a bit now. Even though it is not to an extreme, I do feel sad. I have much trouble sleeping, and even when I do get enough sleep, I will wake up have my coffee, and take a nap on the couch.

Today for instance, I did just that. I did not get off the couch until 1pm, right before I had to go to work. And this has been going on for sometime, I think it might be that my body is very used to getting nicotine at these times. I really thought this was the case until I found:

Now I am not so sure, maybe a visit to the doctor is in order. Don't get me wrong, I don't really feel that it is better living thru better chemistry. But maybe I can get some advice, maybe I need to change more than just my smoking, maybe, heaven forbid, I need to move more now. Maybe more changes need to be made like better food in take... Oh my, I think I am turning into one of those people...

Then again, maybe I will just suck it up...

I'm just saying...

So, my time officially ran out today for warcraft. Now over the last few weeks I have not gotten on all that much, what with my wife’s video card releasing the magic smoke, and my ever decreasing desire to play, I have logged maybe 4 hours. 4 hours over the last few weeks...

Yet today I feel as though I lost something. A slight sense of lose, hard to put into words, just feels like I am missing something. I felt this way all day, waking up, in the shower, it was not until my trip to work that it dawned on me, my card ran out. Well at least I ain’t chicken, which reminds me one day I will have to post links to my favorite WoW videos.

To date I have saved $189 dollars on not smoking, as well as saving 52.5 hours, some days I really want one, like when my truck died, when I found out my truck really was dead. When the production supervisor talks to me… He is a nice guy, and he quit smoking back in the early 90’s. But man, he can drive me to drink…

But I have managed to stay strong and not smoke, I pray a lot more now though, but that’s a good thing. I think we will be fixing up my wife’s car and sticking to only one vehicle for now. We will see how it goes and see if we really need another car.

Open door

Well turns out that I am no longer the owner of a Chevy S10 pick up. It is dead, way beyond worth repairing, just enough to scrap it. Man that hurts, I don't think my wife understands what this means to me. Yeah it was a small pick up, but until now it never failed me. Got me through some of the worst snow I have seen. Now it will be parted out and maybe bring a little help to old trucks that need a fix or two.

Beyond that, I no longer have a vehicle that is mine, I mean all mine, my radio presets, steering wheel tilt, seat position, mirrors... now must all be shared. Where I like plain, I now have to see decorations of Winnie the Pooh.

Oh well, in the end it does not matter much.

Again with the harping...

In no real way do I ever expect to have anyone read this as I more than likely will not advertise of its placement. But as I am trying to change things in my life, things like smoking a, a 30 year habit. Think about it, my entire adult life I have smoked. Once I started smoking I never stopped, until now that is. This prospect scares the crap out of me, and I am not sure why it does.

The other big thing I am changing, no more WoW. Look to your right, see the Pere Callahan? Yes I stole it from King, Salems Lot, wolves of calla etc... This name is my priest on Ner'zhul, an NE priest at that. Over 160 days played... 160 days, 3840 hours of my life spent in front of a monitor, grinding levels, then reps, then more levels, and more reps...

For me the game has become stale, I have no idea really why it has become that way. Graphicaly great game, mechanics are top notch, good pve balance. Very creative game still, just lovely really. But I have grown tired of it. Don't get me wrong, if I had just picked it up I would love it, but I have been playing since Mr. McCash bought me my first copy of World Of Warcraft back in 2004. Got my wife into it shortly after that.

I just think it is time to move on and that is why this is here, to help me get the monkeys off my back, nothing more, nothing less.
