Found the flooring we need...

Right in the attic, too.
Found juuuust enough paneling (panelling?- whatever..) in the attic of the milking parlor and found a big ol' hunka carpet, a dusty rose color, in the attic of the house.
And, wonder of wonders... it's big enough.
That's a big damned bathroom up there and we thought it was gonna take a few bucks to re-floor it, but... *grin* We got lucky on that one.

Now, if I could just find a way to annihilate companies who jerk you around when it comes to paying bills... the kind of companies who have dolts working for them of two types. Type number one agrees to payment arrangements and type number two who totally disregards them and then threatens to exclude you from their "services", shitty as they are to begin with.

My car insurance, I can kinda roll with, because I needed a new agent anyway. My last one was back in Bucks and I ain't gonna drive three hours to sign anything, least of all an insurance app, unless it's a release for a check for AT LEAST 10 grand (the price of my second favorite horse at work).
I fucked up and forgot it... gee, wonder why? But Progressive is a good company and I got my shit straight with an agent up in town here the same day I got the "you fucked up" notice. Hell, she even had to get another agency involved because her computer's system was having a nervous breakdown while I was there Friday, but she got it done and I'm good to go, so good on ya, Progressive.

NEXTEL, however, is starting to really piss me off.
Can't get through from one farm to the next half the time, their service reps are retarded and I truly believe they make up then change their rules as they go along.
I was talking to Eric by radio yesterday and all of a sudden, it won't go through anymore.
Radio's charged. I put 'em both on the charges.
Eric's not in the habit of shutting off his radio mid-conversation.
So, I called 'em and asked just what in the HELL the problem was this time.
They had no answer, naturally, but the snotty fuckin' cunt on the phone did inform me that they don't DO payment arrangements and that I was due to have my service interrupted THAT DAY unless I shit and sent $157.
Excuse me?
I made arrangements to pay this bill off in less than a month, at the rate of $50 a week which I was going to go do as soon as I was done work.
Not good enough for that whore.
So, I demanded to speak to a supervisor.
Cunt puts me on hold, then drops the call.

Man, I got so pissed off I threw my phone across the damned driveway.

Then, I went and picked it back up and called them AGAIN.
Got a cool guy named Brian that time and IN TEARS, I was so pissed, I told him the whooooole story and he at least tried to help.

I still had to make a huge payment yesterday, but he did drop it down some and now I don't hafta worry about the every week shit, but I'm tellin' ya...

I HAVE HAD ENOUGH NOW.

The fact that I haven't YET ended up atop a silo with a bag of rocks, if not a rifle, added to the fact that I haven't gotten stoned in over a month, is a blue-eyed miracle.
After this past week, I'm beginning to wonder if God is trying to force me to find a new source, ya know?
But that can't be... not with me having to hand out wads of friggin' cash every day...
So... what IS the damned deal here?

Just life, I suppose.
Just life being it's normal aggravating self.
*rolls eyes*
Well, wonderful.
(not)

Then, just now, I check my email and not only did Dad manage to get through (the computer he uses at work has "issues" sometimes, like I have periods, I think), but I also got an email/comment from....

*trumpet blare*

ROB FUCKIN' FAY, YAY!!!!!

Man, I haven't heard from him since we moved here and George did just ask me on the way home from Jersey Tuesday night if I'd heard from him lately and I had to say I hadn't, but I have NOW!!!!

Now, all I hafta do is get him out here.
AFTER the bathroom is done....

I wanna show him Hank, that stallion at work.
He'll FLIP when he sees him.

George got to meet Hank yesterday.
Even George is impressed with this magnificent creature and he's not really a "horse person", but that's just how awesome Hank is. Even to the untrained eye, it's obvious the quality this horse has...

Anyway, I need to go get my shit in gear and go get rid of some horse shit.
Then, I gotta come home and clean the house... *dramatic sigh*
Think I'd rather make a bet that I'll eat a shit sandwich and if I do, someone else hasta clean, ya know?
Be easier, I swear...

Oh and Nurse-type chick who wrote me from "HCA health care" and asked me if I'm the same Stevie she was writing to before... Yep. It's me.
I'll try to email ya back later today, if I can, but meantime, I wanted to letcha know "you got me"... *grin*

And, Farmer Mary... I fully intend to do that quiz/meme thing ya sent me and post it here AND, I'd love to know Darrel's answers to that... *grin*

Yeah, I need to write to him again, too...
Some day...
And Rob.
Gotta give him and Acidman Rob and Cat my new cell number.

Also still wondering what the fuck is going on with Brooklyn Mike, too, now that I think about people having my cell number.
I've given it to HIM approximately 972 times and still he hasn't used it, blogged or commented since the first week of January.

Aaaaggghhhh... can't thin about this now.
Must go to work.
Have shit to do.
Will deal with Mad William Flint's ass on Monday, when I can call the financial institution type place where he works in NYC and don't think I won't.
It's been more than long enough now.
Plus, I've still got some balls left from that crap yesterday, so I think I'll use 'em.

Consider yerself warned, Michael.
Officially warned.
If I don't hear something, ANYTHING, from you by the end of today, expect a call at work.
You know me.
You know I'm crazy enough and I love ya enough to do it.
So don't bet I won't...

Okay.
I'm outta here and if anybody else is gonna try to extort money from me in the name of "bills", yer just gonna hafta piss up a rope til next Friday, 'cause I have NO MONEY LEFT NOW.
'Kay?
Got it, World-at-Large?
NO MORE CASH ON ME.
So, don't even ask.
Ya turd-burglers...

Peace, the rest of y'all....
