Okay, so this morning didn't do much. This afternoon started out the same way.
Oh, did make a call to Time Warner, but using the phone, because I forgot how to make calls on Google Voice (details on this later), thankfully it went much smoother than last time I had to call those ->-bleeped-<-s (I say this because my last experience was so bad it got me crying and so flustered that if it were just myself I would've canceled the service completely). Since we've had them we've been paying for wi-fi, but hadn't actually used it, if fact I don't think it was even working, didn't when I tried it. It was mom's idea for us to have it, I wanted to save the extra 5 bucks. I told her the laptop would not be moved around, that's how she damaged her's a while back, moving it around too much, ruining the power cord and keeping it on unventilated surfaces like her lap or couch, wasn't going to be happening with mine, no way. So I called them up to get rid of the wi-fi, now we'll be $5 and some odd cents richer, yay! Every little bit counts.
Spend some hours on the internet, doing nothing really, was bored and didn't feel like really doing anything, probably because it was so damn hot, even with the air on. After I showered, cooling me down, I felt better, more awake.
Actually spent some time looking up bathing suits. I know I'm not ready yet, can't trust that pecker to stay down, still it tries to poke its ugly head up, mostly mornings, but still once in a while sometime during the day, didn't help me looking at bathing suits either, was getting excited just visualizing myself in one of them. Stay down dammit!
Love both of these, and I think I may have the confidence to wear one out of the house, eventually. Both are really cute and playful, ruffles and bows to bring out the fun girl in me, I did plain and simple too much of my life. But its not like I'm going to go out and buy me a bathing suit anytime soon, sure the skirt would help conceal that embarrassing thing, but still having issues with that spitting cobra down there. Maybe next year I'll be ready, it would be nice. In the meantime I can dream, window shop on the internet.
Later, early evening, I decided to stitch, got me a new project:
Today instead of stitching in silence or listening to music I decided to watch some Disney. First up, Hercules, seen this one once before, enjoyed it, good fun action scenes. After that something new, Lilo & Stitch, never seen before, very funny, I especially like the whole thing about mosquitoes.
Oh, almost forgot, a couple days ago I decided to try something new, something that sparked my curiosity, Google Voice - can talk to people using my laptop like a phone. Ooh, gotta try that! So, set it all up, called myself. Hello? Hello? Hello-hello-hello-llo-llo-lo-oooo? Echo-echo-echo-cho-cho-ho-oooo! Hahaha, that's great! Love the echo effect! Okay, so probably because I'm talking to myself and too close. Hmm, who the heck am I going to call? I had ideas but too phone shy for conversation with anyone. But, tonight with me having been off work for several days, truck coming in tomorrow, had to give a call to find out when it'd be and when I'd need to be there. So, made that call with Google Voice, it rang, someone picked up, one of the cashiers that I don't know, I asked for the manager, got what time I needed to be in, for 1pm, truck comes at 2pm. Oh, I can say this, oh, finally I can hear clearly like I'm standing right there next to the person, loud and clear. That's one of the reasons I've always sucked at using phones, no matter how loud their volume was turned up, can't hear well enough with one ear alone and if put on speaker things just sound garbled like the speaker can't handle the highest volume setting. Well now, I know how I'll be handling calls from now on.
