Caller ID R0xx0rz.

So ... I get into work today and there's a message left last night - now, mind you - we close at 4pm PST. There's a nice little message when you call after that time that says 'You called - we're closed you fucking loser.' ... well, it doesn't say EXACTLY that, but you get the picture.

So I check my voice mails this morning and there's a message from a guy(chick?) that sounds like a mix of Yoda and the Nanny with a little Joe Pecci thrown in says "Well aren't you just a damn rinky dink operation." and hung up.

Normally I just ignore things like that, but last night my son decided to puke 10 gallons of ... stuff all over my wife, couch, floor, etc .... so I wasn't too happy. And we have this new fangled feature on our phones called 'Caller ID' - This gives us the exact date and time and phone numbers of people who call .... so I call this reject from Star Wars: The Good Fella's Nanny back.

Me: "Good Morning - This customer service. You called us last night - while we were closed - and left a rather rude message - What can I help you with?"
(Because I Don't know if it was a man or a woman, I'll just say Him)
Him: "I never called anyone last night."
Me: "Is this ?"
Him: "Yes."
Me: "Well, we got a message last night from someone being extremely rude - this is the 'Rinky Dink' company."
Him: "... That's not what I meant by that."
Me: "Well, regardless - something was very imporant to warrant a rude message while we were closed, so we just want to make sure everything is alright."
Him: "... I ... don't need anything."
Me: ".... Wait, so you called up ... and left a rude message ... but didn't need anything? I wish I could do things like that - we have these customers all the time that don't realize we deal with 1000s of customers every day, so they'll call up and be all rude when we answer, or if they ahve to leave a mesasge - if *I* could call all of them back when they're not around and be rude to them - that'd be cool."
Him: "......."
Me: "Anyways, Have a good day." *Click*

Dumb Fucker.

"There are no words ..."

You know, they say you learn something new every day - That saying should be "You learn alot of new things every day if you have kids." What did I learn today? I learned that if you're not watching your child eating Jello with a straw, it sounds exactly like, quote, "A dog horking up it's guts".

I will leave the rest to your imagination... Or you can read the full story on Beth's Blog.

Damn She's Cool.

Damn my wife is cool. Why is she cool? Because she, like myself, can go out to the first place she attempts to get a job at, go "Give me a job. I want this much money." And they go "Oh .. umm .. okay."

What does this mean to you?

Absolutely nothing. However since my wife got a job, that means that ... well, she's got a job. Yippie! It also means that we'll be moving *groan* into a bigger place *Yippie!* for more money *groan* but it has a fireplace *Yippie1* and a garden tub *Yippie!* but the kids have to go to daycare now for like $300 bucks a week *groan* ... Ahh well. :)

Way Annoying.

You know what's really annoying? ... no, more annoying than that .... getting closer .. ugh, you suck. What do I find really annoying? Along with a myrad of other things, Fake Friends. What's a 'Fake Friend' I hear you asking? Well, a Fake Friend is simple. You know that guy you know that calls you like .. once every couple of months and is like "Hey, how are you! I haven't talked to you in a long time! How's the kids? How's the Job? Wanna come over?" then they drop the want bomb - "Hey, do you have like 20 bucks I can borrow?"

Fucker, if I had 20 bucks to loan you, I'd probably be doing something productive rather than sitting here bitching on my blog about it. I mean seriously, WTF. Get a job.

But yeah, in this case it's more about a game (See the "More Productive" statement above) - Someone who hasn't so much as TALKED to me in 6 months all the sudden wants me to drop EVERYTHING and fix all sorts of shit because they asked me to - now, when they stopped playing my game, they (Her and her Boyfriend) left behind several areas they were building, as well as alot of plotlines open (yeah yeah, I'm a fuckin nerd - deal with it.) And now that they're back, they're already starting shit and pulling the "I've been here longer" to everyone on the game. "Oh yeah, well Raum promised me and never gave it to me" Argh.

I need to back to coding a way to stab people in the face over the internet.

".. What's that Smell?" "... 5am."

Okay, Seriously. It's 5am. WTF am I awake for - WTF am I awake for and cleaning my house? .. F-I-V-E A-M.

Ugh.

Yeah ...

So yeah. It's been like .. whoa long since I posted anything on here ... at all. Today sorta sucked though. Without going into too many details (Yeah Yeah, I know - thats what blogs are for. wtf) we had to get rid of our bird - the one that actually liked me and clucked at me and stuff when I talked to him. It sucked.

But yeah. It's late (10pm .. again, wtf) and I'm tired.

Mental Note: Blog more often.
