Stupid Verizon...

So it's been a long time since I've posted anything. Nothing has been going on really. But I had to vent for a mintue. I'm just going to throw it out there that I hate going to the verizon stores...

I was eligible to a phone upgrade back in May. I had a Voyager, and it was junk. I was having problems a few weeks before I could upgrade so I took it into the store and they said my phone was under warranty so they would order me a replacement. 2 days later, it arrived at work.

I put my battery in it, activated it and it worked just fine....for a bout 2 hours. The stupid thing wouldn't even turn on. It was fully charged and would not turn on. I took the battery out several times, tried plugging it into my charger just to make sure. Nothing. So I made me way back up to Verizon. I requested a guy I always deal with, he's super nice and doesn't screw with you. He's very profesional. They were packed, and of course, I did not get him. Instead I got some bitchy lady who accused me of talking on the phone outside in the rain because some "indicator" was missing from the back side of the battery. I told her I've had the phone for about 4 hours and I haven't even made a call with it yet. She told me they were out of those in stock and she would have to have one shipped. BUT, she can't order me another one until I have sent the old one back. She was going to have me be without a phone for a few days, until genius me told her to just activate my old one that actually turns on. Then I left.

I got home and got on the phone with tech support. The guy basically said that they don't even use the indicator anymore and it had nothign to do with why my phone wouldn't work. So the bitch at the store didn't no what she was talking about. So I was able to send my phone out, and they were sending me a replacement. Everything was fine and a few weeks later I upgraded to an ENV3.

I've had it for almost 2 months now, and I haven't had much problems with it. Until recently. It keeps shutting off by itself, and won't reboot by itself. Screen turns white. Just really crazy. So I went to the store last night to see about getting it replaced or something. I got there, signed in and waited for almost 20 minutes. The lady walks up, I tell her what's going on. And she says...

"OH well you need the latest software update. It takes about an hour to to and, oh.. :looks at phone:, we close in 45 mintues. So you'll need to come back."

I could have killed her. I get you close, but if someone has been waiting, would it really kill you to stay an extra 15 mintues? And everything I've read online about the update, people say it only took them 10-15 minutes. UGh I was so mad.

I hate going to the store, and I try not to for reasons like this. But a software update, you kinda have to go to the store for that. Damn..

Was it really that funny?

So yesterday I went out with Jai and Mandar to Chipotle and to see Madea Goes to Jail....

They picked me up and we headed to Ontario to endulge in so burrito goodness. Or tacos in Mandar's case. I guess he was planning on getting a burrito, but freaked out when the guy asked him what he wanted. He doesn't like change..but atleast he voted for Obama...

Anyways...we ate our food and discussed Jai's book and such. He demonstrated someone in a wheelchair skipping. Doesn't sound so funny but if you could see it, you would pee yourself. We finished out food and walked next door to a new game store a friend of mine told me about. It was amazing. They had a huge selection of DS games. I got a new game, and they got 2 movies for practically nothing. Great store. Crap music.

We then walked around Bed Bath and Beyond. I love that store, but hate the prices! Jai was searching for a table cloth or something, and was pissed because they didn't have the color he wanted on the shelf, but it was on the display! PIssed! Mandar and I learned about new cups that don't require coasters. It was then close to movie time, so we decided to head to the theater.

We bought our tickets, while everyone stared at us. Got some refreshments and headed to our movie. Jai had to pee so Mandar and I had the job of finding seats. Jesus Christ was the place packed! This movie has been out for a while, and people were still going to see it. So at first we sat in the front row, then knew Jai would bitch, so we moved back a row. I was content and so was Mandar. But in strolls Jai with his pissy pants on and just HAS to move. There were seats behind the bar, and he politely asked a couple to move over one seat. The bitch gave attitude, but still moved so we sat in our 3rd seats.

The movie began and it was awesome. Until everyone in their brother decided to show up about half way though the movie. Then there was a part where everyone decided it was a crappy scene and just had to pee now. There were these kids behind us, and it was like they weighted 400 pounds. Their ass kept bumping my seat as they walked by, only to find they weer about 5 years old. ..There was also this old couple who walked around the entire theater, and yelled to each other to go to those seats. Just totally rude!

Then...it started. The movie was hilarious, yes, but there is no need to be over dramatic about it. There was this scene, where it wasn't supposed to be funny at all. And this stupid guy toward the front started like screaming he was laughing so hard. The best part, was some kid who was with him leaned over and said "Shut up!". Thank you!

But all in all, the movie was fabulous. Helller...

I think people just like to make me bitch about things...

So there are a lot of things that get on my nerves at work. One of those things I just happen to capture a picture of today. Now, it's in Sepia because I forgot to change it and I didn't want to get caught taking this picture, but I think it adds a little something to the picture. This is the Tiny Pants that I've bitched about time after time on this blog. This is my "supervisor" who does nothing all day but wash his hands, look out the window, and of course, look through my filing cabinet of open orders. This was taken at precisely 11:28 am....
He was there for a good 5 mintues prior....Wtf

Meaningless rant...

I know this is going to sound petty..but I had to bitch about it. Now where I work, they tend to spend money on meaningless things. Now what I don't get, is why they can spend a fortune getting new bathroom sink faucets what look and work the exact same as the old ones, and how they can spend about 10 bucks on a big bag of chocolates for Miss Manatee in the office, but I have to settle for this:


I know I know. There are people in Africa with poor penmanship who would kill to have some Integra Correction Fluid to fix their mistakes on paper, but come on....

Priceless...

So while perusing the internet today, I came across something rather amusing...


Playing with economic: 50 Billion dollars

Playing with soldiers: 100 Billion Dollars

Electing the village idiot as president: Priceless

Ain't that the truth...

OOOOOkahoma...

Yeah you know the song...

Anyways, it's been a while. I don't have an excuse for most of that time, but the past, oh about 2 weeks or so, I've been on vacation. My boyfriend took my down to Oklahoma to meet some more of his family. I was extremely nervous, but I ended up having a lot of fun! His grandparents (who we stayed with) were the sweetest people and treated me like I was apart of the family. They took us to see some buffalo, Indians and Mount Scott, which was beautiful. The sunsets there are incredible. That place is growing on me. Who knows, we may be moving down there one day!

We also went to the Oklahoma City Memorial. It was so sad. They had pieces of the building in there, and shoes and toys from the day care where all those kids were killed. It was nice they did that for all those people killed, but still just awful.

My allergies and what not never acted up down there, and my nose never bothered me. Driving home from Columbus I started to get a headache, so I knew we were back in Ohio. There's just something about this place...

Being away from work was wonderful too. This place drives me crazy. I was looking on career builder for jobs in Oklahoma City...dang. There are a lot that I could qualify for. Making Oklahoma so that much better!

The planes were okay too. We had some turbulance flying from Oklahoma City to Memphis. It was so windy. Plus I had chugged a mountain dew so I wasn't feeling too great anyways. Add some jerking around at 30,000 feet in the air doesn't help. But all in all it was a great vacation.

I had to bite my tougne. Being in the south I was in "Obama the anti-christ" country. I did see about 2 or 3 Obama bumper stickers. Which surprised me. I figured I was the only Democrat in Oklahoma at the time.

Back to work today sucked. Though I was well rested. We planned this perfect. Work for a day, go on vacation for 10 days, work one day, then have a weekend. Haha I bet our boss hates us. Oh well we hate him too.

I'm supposed to go wedding dress shopping with my sister in the morning. Though she hurt her back this week I think she should stay home and relax...but that's just me.

I do need to get back to work. Atleast make it look like I'm working. I will put some pics from the trip up sometime this weekend. I just wanted to let everyone know that I was still alive!

I'm so against everything today...

Ah where to start...

I'm at work. And about to blow somebody's head off. Apparently..I have to be reminded by SOMEONE everyday that I'm a fucking idiot. Excuse me for not knowing every damn part number in the building..I've only been here 3 years. You've been here like your whole life and you don't know them. How's about you get the fucking doobie out of you mouth and maybe you could remember something!

Well my rant is temporarily over. I must finish up my work for today, so I can leave and brave the cold....ugh -35 degree windchill is damn cold!

Day 1...

So today starts the new Megan. I colored my hair this weekend, back to the way I like it. I'm joining the Y today. I'm a vegetarian again. I'm no longer drinking pop. You don't even recognize me now!

Well I should be working right now, but that's over-rated. I really don't have much to do today, so the later I get that nothing started, the shorter time I'll have to endure it.

So I was talking to Jai last weekend about college and what not. And I've found what he's majoring in (Paralegal Studies) very interesting. I might (when I go back to school) try a class in that, see what I think. It says on their website it will be in high demand, ya know with idiots sueing because they didn't realize their new kitchen knife was sharp. We'll see I guess.

This weekend was fun. Friday Pookie and I went out with some friends to this new Italian place. Cheap, delicious and leftovers and the 3 words I would use to describe it. It was about $50 for the 4 of us to eat. This some bread knot things, salad, drinks and the food. Delicious...it was just awesome. Tasted authentic. It took forver, so it must all be homemade. And leftovers..I ate lunch Saturday AND Sunday of my leftovers and STILL have some in the fridge. Crazy...

Saturday we went over to some friends of ours house, exchanged christmas gifts, had a few drinks and played Euchre. Then watch Season 1, Disc 1 of Jackass. God I loved that show...

Sunday morning we headed home, stopped to see his Mom, then got home. He had basketball and I finally finished Season 2 of the Tudors while I put clothes away and straightened up the room. Even though it was like 473 years ago, I'm still depressed about how Anne died. That was just awful. And all those men, who never touched her! The poor gay guy..how sad. And the only fucker who ever did..um her, didn't even die! Ugh!!!

So now I suppose I will go and do my nothing for today while listening to the Twilight Soundtrack (great music, check it out!).

I will leave you with the quote of the post:
--In light of only 15 days til our awesome new President takes office, here is a quote by President Elect Barack Hussein Obama
"I don't oppose all wars. What I am opposed to is a dumb war. What I am opposed to is a rash war."

Genius...

New Years Resolution..

Well Happy Freakin New Year...

I can't believe it's 2009. And since I've started this blog, I haven't really kept up with it. Which goes along with my new years resolution..

I have decided to make 2 this year. And they're fairly easy, so maybe I can actually stick with it this year. I've decided to:

1. Blog more. I've been really slacking lately. I have things I COULD blog about..but it's not really important.

2. Be more positive. I don't really consider myself a negative person...more a realistic person. As emo as it may sound..I would rather not get my hopes up for something and be let down. I hate that. So I am going to try and be a little more positive this year.

So now, continuing with my blog..

Christmas was awesome. I got my DS I've been wanting. And some other awesome stuff. Had a nice relaxing day with the family. Then that Sunday I went out with Jai and Mandar to do our Christmas thing. Went to Mongolian and saw Twilight. 2 of my favorite things..

Yesterday was New Years. wow 2009. Can't believe it. It will take months for me to remember to write 2009 now.

I've also decided..I just remembered..on all my blog posts..I'm going to add a nice little quote. I've always been a fan of quotes. So I will add one on every post. I can't really call it a quote of the day...cuz face it, I never blog everyday! So here is this posts' quote...

"What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday, and our present thoughts build our life tomorrow: Our life is the creation of our mind." -The Buddha-

Profound..
