... and sandpaper hands, I look down and realize I really do need a manicure, and not just for masochistic reasons any more... my hands have been over washed over dried windblown and not moisturized nearly enough, i dont understand how, I slather lotion on my whole body three times a day and spend extra time with my hands, my palms are still soft and delicate but the outside is as cracked and dry as the rio grande riverbed in summer. I happen to like the electric blue nail polish, but my mother seems to think that i have grown too old for it, I say phooey! I'll give it up the same year I willingly give up halloween. She'd probably flip her lid if she realized I have the lipstick to match.
I'm going to Denver next weekend, a mini-vacation if you will, the whole gang is going, it should be fun.
I HATE CSR's, not the actual people, just thier jobs. I have been a customer service rep so I know its protocol nothing personal but damn! I have spent the last three days looking for affordable auto insurance and with the Boyscouts driving record, and my refusal to carry less than comprehensive despite the fact that my car is paid off, that is no easy task, and they werent making it any easier. Finally, I spent two hours on the phone this morning with a lovely independent agent, named Tamera from somewhere in California who got me set up for $277/mo, which is what he was paying for himself. I'm so happy, I may just pay off the six months. P.S. Geico is expensive and should be avoided like the plague!
So I'm trying to be less materialistic, but I got this really awesome phone this weekend, quad band, full webbrowsing, video, audio, Mp3, IM, full Organizer, Image editor, 32Mb memory card thats about the size of my pinky nail, a bunch of cool extras like conversions, timezones, awesome games (tetris! I have tetris!, and some other gamecube quality games)... and I cant get the fucking thing to sync with my computer. The USB driver wont load right, so my phone recognizes the computer, but the computer doesnt recognize the phone. I am ready to throw them both through the window, and technical support was of no help, i am getting new drivers sent but Oy Vey! I'm gonna shoot someone in the meanwhile.
About Me
- me
- Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
- Pablo Neruda Sonnet XVII (100 Love Sonnets, 1960) I don't love you as if you were the salt-rose, topaz or arrow of carnations that propagate fire: I love you as certain dark things are loved, secretly, between the shadow and the soul. I love you as the plant that doesn't bloom and carries hidden within itself the light of those flowers, and thanks to your love, darkly in my body lives the dense fragrance that rises from the earth. I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where, I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I don't know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep it is your eyes that close "Nothing in the world is the way it ought to be. It's harsh, and cruel, but that's why there's us. It doesn't matter where we come from, or what we've done, or suffered, or even if we make a difference. We live as though the world were as it should be, to show it what it can be." --Angel
