I really am still alive...

What a wild freaking rollercoaster called Life do I ride! I'm almost done with EMT school, started back in August. Part of the reason little bloggie-do here has been ignored. Gotta keep up on that. I'll get better at it, I promise.
Neuro crap is still going round, but at least I have a doctor now that knows what she's doing? Mr. Roly Poly neuro just laughed everything off so I finally laughed HIM off and went somewhere else. Still don't know what's going to happen (do any of us, really?), just taking it one headache--err, day, at a time.
Had to admit Ry to a behaviorial health center last month. Didn't realize he was that depressed and suicidal. Yes, at 8 years old, it happens. 10 days and a new Rx later, he's a changed child. I'm not exactly thrilled about meds, but considering that he got BiPolar added to his Dx of Autism, whatever helps him to lead a more normal life, works for me.
Thanksgiving....well....it was hard. My pappaw died in July, and I knew this first year without him at the holidays was gonna be rough. Seeing all of us grandkids together with our babies, who'd never grow up with his quick smile and wit, and lots of love, just about did me in. I know he was watching over us, though. I felt him there with us. Saying grace was always his job, and it just wasn't the same this year... Christmas is gonna be worse, I can feel it.

Scams. Stupid freaking scams. Yeah I got caught up in one. Burnt for over $5k. At least the fool was stupid enough to put his real phone number on the FedEx containing the counterfeit money orders, so now I can bust him. Chances of getting money back are slim to none, but at least that'll be one more turd out of the gene pool, IF our "justice" system throws him away somewhere.

Oh, so much more I need to write, but gotta jet to ride the pretty box with the flashing lights and screaming sirens.

Boredom....

Boredom is setting in, I've been on the phones for an hour and no calls. I know it'll be back to back here in a couple of hours, so I'm enjoying the peace while I can. I'm currently debating whether or not I have time to rip off my headset, dash to pee, and get back before a call comes in. My luck, probably not. And I don't want to waste my precious break time. I save that for when the call flow is heavy LOL I really do like my job. Seriously. This is like THE job to have. Sitting at home, just listening to customers whine and bitch about their internet. Having a smoke, having some wine. Just kickin back and relaxing. Sometimes I can't believe I get paid to do this. And of course I worry that the project I'm on is gonna come to a screeching halt one day. But with the current call volume the way it is, and predicted to get higher by winter, I doubt it. There are some agents that have been on this project for 2 years. So it doesn't look like it's going...

So I'm sitting here at work...

I'm bored out of my mind. The calls are slow, and we'll probably get sent home early again. Hard to do overtime when they're sending you home early! I have to say, this work at home gig is pretty cool. Sit in my jammies, not shower for a few days if I don't want to, no makeup, no fancy clothes, and talk to customers. Overtime if I want it, more cash in my pockets. What's not to like? Heh. Too easy of a question. Through my own independent studies, I have concluded that New Jerseyians are born and bred to be rude. No offense to any of my Jersey readers out there, but that queue/area is the most dreaded one to be put into. Everyone groans when they're put in that queue. We bribe supervisors to get us out of it. Everyone that calls in is a screaming psycho and it's our fault that their internet has not worked for two weeks yet they decide to wait until 1 a.m. to call it in, and want a tech out the very next morning. Not happening, folks. Now to be fair, it'...

Just...Wow....

I've been here since 2004. 5 years. I didn't realize I'd been blogging that long. I don't think anyone reads my blogs anymore but that's ok. I like to come back for sentimentality sake. I'm heartbroken that ALL of my private diary I had saved on my hard drive was obliterated a month ago as the hard drive died a slow and painful death. Normally they can get the information off the drive by mounting it on their server, but the drive wouldn't respond. Period. It was cold dead. Which means I lost pictures and documents from about 2007 onwards. Highly treasured photos at that. Maybe it's for the best that my kids don't read all that garbage I used to write about George. Entries upon entries of disgust, contempt, borderline hate. Maybe it is better to just put it all behind me and let them have what little memory of him they have left. Jake has no memory of him hardly at all, and Ry remembers very little. The memories will fade as they get older, I'm c...
