So someone just called, started off the convo with the fact they were already sure they didn't have the right number, but could I direct them to who they needed to call regarding blah, blah?
I start to give them a name and number and I get, "Oh, wait. Let me get a pen."
UM, HELLO!! You were freakin' positive you were calling into the wrong person. WHY THE F*CK DON'T YOU ALREADY HAVE A PEN HANDY, A-HOLE?!
God save me from the idjits of this world!!
I hung out with Cheyenne Jackson in his dressing room waayyyyyy before he tickled D2."unleash the girly"
Our fingerprints don't fade from the lives we touch.
Is there a bigger waste of an afternoon than waiting for the delivery man to show up. Apparently he will be here within a 1/2 hour. At least he will be here in the window of 12-4 like promised.
I get to play that game tomorrow, YWIW -- electrician/oven installer due from 12 to 4. Since I know it's a several hour job it had better be closer to 12. I get to sit in a cold house for hours without electricity (and no computer!) What ever will I do?
The HDMI was the easy part - the challenge was trying to cross reference component schemes that are from different manufacturers.
Eventually, the DVD plays from the stereo and the picture show on the TV, and the TV now plays through the stereo. And, everything (except the Wii, which should be easy) is connected. And, it looks pretty good.
That TV was damn heavy - and my big fear now is Zander using it for pull-ups. I need a husband to help with this crap!
Wiring all of my video and audio components back to my receiver so that I can use the surround sound for them. When I decided to get a new TV, it meant not only getting a new TV, but a new entertainment center, and unfortunately, many of them got unplugged in the process of removing, storing and then replacing on the new center. The Receiver is an Onkyo, the DVD Sony, the CD Technics and the TV Toshiba, so nothing is designed to be plug and play (and, some of them are getting a little long in the tooth).
I was like the mad cord scientist changing and testing configurations to make sure it worked. For some reason, I can now access the DVD video through the receiver, but it has both picture and sound, so I am not complaining!
And with that, I shall wish all of the fine adults a great tomorrow.

I'm with you Q. Luckily, J2 can figure all this stuff out. Although it still irks me that I have to push FOUR buttons just to turn the damn T.V. on now.
Mornin'
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)
I'm contemplating getting a new HD tv but then realized that I have to buy a new hd receiver and new satellite and deal with the other old equipment. I smell another fiasco, like the oven. I need you all to pray to the baby Jebus that I have heat and a working oven tonight. The upside -- hunky Nick is coming back. Sigh.
YWIW - I feel your pain. When I moved out of the apartment I was not smart to pay attention to where the thousands of cords went and just threw them all in a box. i tried to hook everything back up at my mom's....yeah not happening.
Morning peoples!!!
My roommates came home with a puppy yesterday. He's lucky he's cute or I'd be more mad that no one bothered to ask me if I wanted a dog in the house. We named him Spike. He is a Shorkie.
BroadwayBoobs: I'll give all of you who weren't there a hint of who took the pictures ...it rhymes with shameless
You just invent these things for Hunky Nick, don't you? And now you'll claim to be cold and need someone to warm you up. I know that trick. I mean....I've heard of it before.
I'm so glad there are people like YWIW in this world because people like me read those posts and it says "blah, blah, component, blah receiver, blah". Not a clue, I'm so ignorant.
Back in the last century, when I ran a video store for awhile, I had to know all that stuff. But the tech is totally different now, and I haven't kept up at all. In fact, I've drifted more and more back to my long held disdain (for about 10 years, I didn't even have a tv or a phone! Some people still can't believe I use a computer.)
And I'm reading this morning about certain tech that is quickly disappearing, like land-line phones and dvds. And that's just great, since we generally have to go outside to get even remotely decent connection on our cells, and our cable service has near constant freezing glitches.
I swear I'm going to end up huddled in a corner with my books, muttering to myself and throwing my poop at anyone who dares to approach.
Yeah, no offense to you, YWIW, but I couldn't even read those paragraphs. They made my head hurt! LOL! But, I know who to email if I ever have any issues hooking up electronics!
A shorkie? That would be a _____ and a Yorkie? Sounds cute!
Mornin' All!
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson
