>Could this day get any worse?

>Never say that, never, never, never. Because as soon as you do, …..

Missed my train this morning, I was rather annoyed at the people in front of me that wouldn’t get out of my way. I mean I was trying my hardest to move them with my mind …. I don’t vocalize well at 6:18 a.m. Then I got a seat to myself, so I was happy, turned on my phone and computer (I don’t plan on doing this everyday just trying it out), I can always tell when we get to Westchester County, the connection gets wonky. I wasn’t worried about the phone losing power because I had my cord to charge it and planned on plugging it in to charge when I got to work.

When I got to work however, I didn’t have my cord. No biggie. Just change the battery when the phone dies, yes you probably already know, no battery in my bag. So there I was with a dead phone, so I went to the Verizon store and bought a charger (who knew a Blackberry charger would work with a Palm Pre Plus? Not me.) But I was still feeling kind of stressed, so I went to get some steamed dumplings, Chinese restaurant closed. I went to the deli to get lunch and as I was walking back I thought, “Could this day get any worse?”

Like I said never, never, never, say.that.

>Blogging from the train, but not from my phone

>Yes I am blogging with my laptop, I am not on my phone, but I am using my phone’s hotspot. I checked my service provider and I don’t think I have to pay, if I get a bill for $3,000 I will scream so loud you will probably hear me.

Now that I have said that, I don’t know what else to say. I was so excited to be able to go online on the train that everything else that has happened fades to insignificance. I won’t be able to stay on long, phone battery charge and all. But I will at least be able to do a quick little post so everyone knows about my new little toy. Which I already told you about, but I am finding new reasons to love it.

>I have been trrying to get back to my regular, or maybe I should say, the time I’m supposed to be on the train. Today was a good day to start since today is payday, so I draged myself out of bed, a little later then I wanted and then my contacts wouldn’t co-operate. The left one, even after I took it out is still bothering me. When we left the house with less then 10 minutes to get there I was sure I wouldn’t make it.

Driving to the train station, I resisted the urge to push the issue and fly through town like a crazy woman. When I got to the train station the train wasn’t there. I took that as a good sign. It pulled in as I was coming up the stairs.

Stitch and I want to know who cancelled summer. It was 40⁰F (4⁰C) this a.m. Are you f*cking kidding me?! I have my jacket on and not just because I forgot to wear a bra.

>Hello there

May 25, 2010

>Another day on the train headed to work, with a visit to the dr first. Then I have to buy a top, on my way across the parking lot I realized my top doesn’t match my pants. I also need some low rise pants like Em got Saturday. I realized that yesterday when I kept having to roll down the waistband of my pants.

That is not the only thing I had go wrong, Stitch has changed his mind about driving me to the train station so I have been driving and parking and I never got a current parking permit. So now I am wondering what to do, I don’t want to cancel my permit it I have to drive and park. On the other hand, I feel like I am wasting money paying for a parking permit when I’m getting dropped off when they are in school. *sigh*

Also, I forgot to charge my iPod, so soon I will not have music. Well on my phone, but I only have the one Red Hot Chili Pepper album on my phone.

Now for the rant, I hate it when people think that they don’t need their headlights on in the morning, yes I know it is light out, but until the sun comes up, you need your headlights on.
Well, I think that’s all.

>I was wondering if I should read my book or send a blog post e-mail. The next minute I looked out the window and we were in the city. Sigh.

It’s a shame really cause I had a good thought and the wording I was going to use was clever and now … Sigh.

So hows your day so far?

>I hate garbage trucks.

>I realize they perform a vital service. That without them we would be buried in garbage or have to take our garbage to the dump ourselves. Imagine how much of a hassel that would be, especially for serial killers and mass murderers when asked what kind of garbage they are bringing, how would you classify bodies or body parts? Where was I?

Oh yes, I hate garbage trucks. Do they have to perform this vital service when I am driving to the train station? I come around the corner and there it is in the middle of the road, blocking traffic. Then it turns left, same direction as I do, but it turns right, off the main road so I can go on to the train station as normal.

Since I caught the train, you may wonder why I am ranting about this. It was a disruption in my routine. Which I don’t like.

>Time for bed

>Sitting here trying to think of something to say while I stuff myself with Milk Duds®. I can’t even of what I wanted to post earlier. Here’s the thing, on the train in the morning, I always am thinking of what I want to post, normally I get my phone out and send an e-mail here to post. This morning I was just so tired I didn’t. I kept thinking about all day and never did, and now I don’t remember.

The shower is leaking, D can’t do anything to fix it right now because he is still recovering from his surgery. I did my hair last night so I needed to wash it tonight, I figured the best thing to do would be to go to the gym. Then I decided since I was going to the gym I should work out and now my legs are sore.

Well, I am just rambling here so I will say goodnight.

My own little rant

Filed under: Miscellanea, Technology
May 7, 2010

I wanted to send this on my train ride in but I couldn’t connect. To anything, NY Times, Twitter or e-mail. I also wasn’t getting any text updates and the e-mail icon wasn’t showing up. I was perplexed, thought maybe it was being on the train that was doing it. So I tried it when I got into work. I could send and receive text messages, but couldn’t go ‘online’. I sat there and stared at my phone, then I thought, it’s a mini computer, when you have a problem with your big computer you reboot. So I pressed the power button and got the shut down, airplane mode, or restart screen. So I touched restart. Problem solved. 

What I want to rant about is people who decide they have to disturb you. This morning there were a few seats open, nice seats with nothing on them and plenty of room. This woman decides she has to sit with me. So while I am playing with my phone, trying to get it to work, I have to stop and pick up my stuff so she can sit there.

People drive me crazy.

>Today is better and worse then yesterday.

>Better because I remembered my hair clips and cord for my phone. Worse because I overslept and am now 2 hours late. Yes you read that correctly. I woke up wondering why my alarm wasn’t going off and looked at my clock, thought it was after 6 so I checked my phone and it was 16 minutes after the train I should catch and 3 minutes before the train I usually catch. So I rolled over, briefly considered not going to work today, after about 30 more minuted dragged my sorry butt out of bed and got ready for work and am now headed to NYC. Catch you later folks.

>Another punch buggy

>Yes I caught the early train two days in a row. I am so happy, well maybe happy is not quite the word for it. But I can’t think of a better one.

Been eating skittles. Lots of skittles, too many, I now have a sore tongue. So I sent a text to Gwen telling her where to find the ones I didn’t eat from the big bag at home. I think I will eat this one little bag and then stay away from them for a while.

And once again I can’t think of what to say, so I will have to talk to you later.
