Incoming!

September 30th, 2009

Yea, it seems we have a lot of stuff coming in the mail lately. Here’s a quick rundown of all the stuff we ordered: A flat-screen TV (and since we ordered this particular TV, we get an X-Box arcade system with it for free), our Dyson vacuum cleaner, a Sony sound bar for the TV, a PS3 gaming bundle, and (if the vendor ever decides to actually send my item) my aknh ring that I ordered on Ebay. I can at least be absolutely sure the other items will be coming in, since we bought them all from reputable places. My ring has somehow mysteriously disappeared in the mail TWICE, and it pisses me off. I know I only spent 16 bucks on it, but I had been waiting for that ring to become available for months. =/ It’s very disappointing. I’ve contacted the seller several times and plan to take it up with eBay if he doesn’t come through.

Dustin needs my help again at World Atlantic Airlines, and I’m trying my damnedest to avoid driving to Miami as much as possible. I DO NOT want to spend the week with my parents again. The whole point of moving out was to STAY OUT, not keep going back every month. Oy. So, right now, Dustin and I are in the process of setting up a server online that I can log into so that I can work remotely from home. I really hope we can get it to work, because if worse comes to worst, I may HAVE to drive down. Audi and I need that income badly, so I’ll have to suck it up and deal with it if I can’t work from home. =/

I got really sick yesterday, ended up puking my brains out. I don’t know why I got sick. Neither Audi or I can explain it, since we both know the dinner I made was well cooked. But a few hours after dinner, I started getting that bad feeling in my chest. I took a shower, hoping it would make me feel better, but no dice. Finally, I stopped fighting it and just let it happen. I still had a stomach ache the rest of the night and most of today, but I definitely felt better after puking. Isn’t that amazing? Puking sucks SO MUCH, but after we do it, we feel so much better. Quite odd this body of human is, hmm?

Anyway, I don’t have much else to report, so for now… Ciao.

Bad news and good news.

September 22nd, 2009

Yea, I know normally it said the other way around, but that’s the order it happened in for me. So, the car is kaput, until I can figure out how to fix the ignition. It gets stuck every time I try to start the car, and there’s no way to even check it or move it or ANYTHING. *sigh* It’s frustrating. I was thinking of asking my neighbor to look at it, since his girlfriend told me he’s good with cars. We’ll see.

However, Dustin called me and told me that he got the OK from the boss for me to work remotely from home. Yay! So, right now he’s in the process of getting the server up to par so that I can access it from my home computer. He hasn’t called me yet, so we’ll see what happens with that.

I got what I wanted from the Fantasyana Publishing magazine, a written agreement. So, now I’m REALLY trying to get all the necessary permissions so that I can send my artwork to them.  So far, I’ve gotten all the OK’s for 3 of the 6 I submitted, and there’s only about 5 or 6 people I’m waiting on. It looks like I won’t be able to submit Battle for Heaven, since Jesper-stock @ deviantart.com is gone completely. There’s no way to contact him. I searched through Google and Yahoo and nada. So, that really sucks. Hopefully, the rest of the people will contact me ASAP.

In extremely new news, (meaning it happened just moments ago), we called the company we bought the TV wall mount from to explain that it wouldn’t work for us. Our wall studs are 24″ apart dead center, and the mount was misleading on the website. It said it could fit on studs that are 24″ apart dead center, but it’s only 22″ long! They ended up giving us a free upgrade to the model we actually needed, and all we have to do is send back the one we ordered. Woot! I love when companies treat their customers right! :)

Anyway, back to hunting these people down. LOL. Hopefully, I can get all this done SOON! Ciao!
