Now here's something strange.

I just got a phone call from someone looking for HP-ang. Obviously it's a wrong number, but I do happen to know an HP-ang.

She called again looking for him, and this time utters my phone number. I'm like, "The number is correct, and I do happen to know HP-ang, but this is not his number."

She replies, "Well he gave me his work number."

"No." I politely correct her. "I have no idea why he'd give my number to you thinking it was work's." - Remember I forward my phone to The Company a lot of the time....

FYI, HP-ang is a co-worker at The Company, but we're not best friends or anything, so I hardly see the guy (I did play beach vball with him just last weekend.)

So I gave her the real work number, and told her losir says "Hi."

Sick as a dog - stayed at home.

Figure it'd also be a good idea to wait for my package to arrive. I waited all day, falling in and out of troubled sleep, dreaming about the package, and my new jacket.

I dreamed that I couldn't write a check for them, not because they wouldn't or couldn't accept it, but I didnt' have a working pen, and I was getting upset.

Anyway, the package never arrived, and they'll only try to deliver it at work now, which as I already said, I wasn't there.

This is getting stupid. To top it off, they gave me the wrong tracking info #, so each time I called, they say the package is delivered and signed for by a "Richard" on Valdor drive. I don't know where the heck that is, but it isn't me.

I finally got the write tracking number though (completely different from a "tracking info" number mind you).

That means I'll have to be at work tomorrow just to pick it up, regardless of how sick I am.

I hate the new Yahoo Messenger - It nows uses Macromedia Flash to display crap in the main messenger window. Yech!

Well I just deleted Macromedia Flash 8 from my computer, and thankfully, the messenger is now ad-less once again!

[UPDATE 7/05/06] Bugger, the ad thing is back.

[UPDATE 7/05/06] I guess you can remove at the ads - Either use this app y.addsremover, or just follow these instructions. I used both and now my messenger window is ad-free; again.

[UPDATE 7/05/06] Just use the second method, as it gets rid of the annoying window all together. *Huzzah!*

....I guess nothing's free in this world afterall.

It appears that my jacket does not want to be with me.

The Brown Truck has attempted to deliver to my house twice already, and tonight, while I was actually home, it tried to come a third time.

Except I was in the 9th level of sleepdom, and would not wake up for anyone - least of all screeching landlady's calls for my name.

I even asked this afternoon to change delivery address to The Company so I could get it faster by end of work day today. Alas like most things anticipated - it's left me scarred for life with yet another let down.

....Oh Jacket, why do you not love me so. posted by losir at 10:42 PM

I had a incomprehensible conversation with someone who asked me to spare some change.

I was sitting at the food court eating my sandwich, when a person came over and asked for a quarter so he could get something to eat.

I offered to buy him food, but he said he could get it cheaper somewhere else. I figured he's using the money for something other than food, but what can I do? I did feel sorry for him.... So I gave him a buck.

I know I'm not doing the "right" thing, but like I've said in the past, if all the guy has left is getting high, then me giving him a shrapnel of pocket change isn't so wrong. At this point, he's beyond a prayer and a friendly pat on the back.

I was really hoping that the allergy I've developed since May would be a passing fluke. I was wishing quite fervently that it would go away.

But it hasn't. I've taken a generic loratadine tablet (10mg) for an hour now, and the only reward I've gotten from it is dry lips. All other symptoms persist.

- Itchy, ITCHY roof of my mouth; check
- Itch, watery eyes, with a hint of burning sensation; check
- Runny nose - stuffy nose; check

The importance of wearing a leather jacket while riding in the summer months cannot be overstated; especially if rain is forecasted.

Doing a 180kph in stinging fat drops of rain in nothing but a muscle-top t-shirt is the worst way to spending 15 minutes on the highway.

Don't argue with me, I have the burst veins on my arms to prove it.

....ouch. posted by losir at 12:01 AM
