What Are You Thinking?

I just took an interesting trip right into a couple of ant hills. After finally making it inside and cleaning the dirt out of my coat, shirt, pants, sock, and underwear, plus insuring I didn't have any unwanted guests, I found myself thinking: "Why doesn't this type of crap happen during Board Domination Week?"

I've gotten a personal email from someone in my college charged with helping people find tutors and such, probably because I publicly blasted them on their facebook page about irrational prerequisites. But when I took Life Skills/Course Maps which a lot of students get put into, and I'm not sure if its a requirement, I scored slightly above average on everything except "Employing Interdependence", and my score remained in the 20's out of 100 for that when the class was over. Not asking for help, and being extremely slow to build relationships is just a part of my personality.

I don't need vinyl to get crackles in my music. My netbook generates more static than a malevolent High School gym student. I could probably run it unplugged with the battery out by rubbing it back and forth over the cat while she sleeps.

This had better work because I'm getting tired of this "Real Player" dance...

VLC Media Player is some of the best freeware around for playing music and movies. It comes with codecs that even Windows Media Player doesn't have.

I'm pretty sure there are Mozilla Firefox addons for that if you google for them. :geek:

Great idea, I didn't think of that...I would prefer to only use VLC so if I can find a setting or something that will allow for the same configuration as RealPlayer, I'm all for it...there like yesterday... :biggrin:

    • I am currently floored.   FedEx did a massive 6 box delivery to the wrong address.  I had an autoship order scheduled to arrive before this past weekend.  Nothing showed up.  I contacted the order site and they had a link for the order...a photo of all my boxes thrown in the snow and up the sidewalk of a residence that was not mine.   You would think that at some point, the driver would have looked at the delivery address after they kept throwing box upon box at this location with no shelter from the elements.  They didn't even knock on the door to inform the residents that massive 65+ pound boxes were left all over their walkway.  Nope.  Just dumped them, took a photo as they were walking away and left.   I wonder what the person who found all of those misdelivered boxes must have been thinking when they saw them.  Maybe they kept everything to use, distribute or sell.  No idea.  No claim was filed on that end as of yet.   Fortunately for me, one of the sites that I ordered from, replaced everything at no extra cost.   Unfortunately, now I'm concerned for the other items yet to be delivered.   Needless to say, I'll be watching my notifications like a hawk.

    • ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.
