Somewhat Annoyed

April 14, 2003

No, this isn't about work -- I'm not at Brady anymore, remember. No, this is all from the time I got home.

· The cable's out. In most cities this isn't too big of a hassle, but with all the hills around here the only channel I get is the CBS affiliate. Even though I'm less than 3 miles away from the ABC station's transmitter. And we all know how good CBS's programming is.

· DXSTG.org's down. I forgot that Verisign started the clock when we registered, whereas Pair started the clock when they got out money. Basically, even though we have another couple weeks of hosting, the domain registration expired. Let's hope we can get set up at the new place soon.

· My Netflix DVD (Star Wars Ep II in this case) is so horribly botched up that it can't even finish the opening crawl. Not even hitting it with Windex helped. So not only do I not have TV, I can't watch my movie either. Or, maybe the player just heard how bad the movie is, and isn't letting me watch. Hmmm....

· I had to send an e-mail to one of the people I worked with in December, looking for her boss (who I haven't heard from in almost two months, even after multiple e-mails and a voicemail) so I can get paid for the work. It's not even half a week's worth for the whole month, a matter of a few hundred dollars, but it's really starting to piss me off. If I don't hear back from this other person soon, my only options are going to be getting the placement company on them, or showing up at the office like Samuel L. Jackson in Pulp Fiction.

But other than that things are peachy.
