misc, not enough time for details

Ray Rice should be left alone. It's a private matter that he knocked out his baby momma as long as it's squared with law enforcement. He said she was drunk and passed out originally, but video showed him punch her after her hitting and spitting his direction. The latter does excuse the abuse, does it? Dudes don't hit dudettes... regardless that women can fight in combat, right? If Rice was beating a gay lover would there be the same media hoopla? I suppose the girl hitter may not play football for money again, but he could still run for public office and be a senator or POTUS one day.
Supposedly, there are more men sexually assaulted annually in our country than women. Only country in world with distinction despite officials stating homosexual population being a small minority of overall population. Yes, they can do combat, too, but think about the prison situation.
Finally got my phone number ported to magicJack from Cincy Bell. The latter canceled my internet service though I had spent ten hours on the phone establishing that I was keeping it. Both companies suck, Cincy Bell is quite proud of sucking because it shows frugality.
In addition to the telephone headache, I'm gonna see my hand surgeon about my carpal tunnel.
Was thinking today that maybe the Twin Towers weren't aesthetic and the terror element was a smoke screen as to why they were taken from the NYC skyline. Gonna be wrinkle in my shelved novel... I think.

mild contemplations

Surgery, thought of it gives me pause. I don't want take off work to do it. I went to work when I woke up 99.7% certain I would call off Wednesday. Felt lousy but it was tolerable since I could take my time and no one was around to see me scurry to the restroom every ten to twenty minutes. Woke up Thursday feeling wonderful, aside from a pimple in my nose making it feel puffy. If a pimple is my big annoyance of the day after feeling like... then I'll take it. Weird to feel not hateful on a Thursday morning... I had four hours of sleep as opposed to three, makes a bit of a difference.
AW, phone rang this morning a few times, so yes, we're back with Cincy Bell with OUR number that magicJack FAILED to port timely. The first call was Improvit wanted business since we were fool enough to have them do our bathroom last August. second call was my hand surgeon's office calling about the referral for my CTS, scheduler made mid-Sept seem distant in the future. Love that office! Third call was my brother. I'm not looking forward to seeing him next week, but the stars aligned that I can venture with family eastward and such while he's in this great state of ours. Yes... art shindig in Cowtown ruins MY weekend, but I'm not gonna do the art, I'll Journey to see my mom since she guilted me with unsolicited check with note saying she hadn't seen kiddos in a while. My brother will head there after a lecture at CCAD by his bud Pagel. I say such about being tight in jest but they probably do ride bikes together. AW the call with my brother drew question as to where my dad will be, he made it sound like he was going to a HOME. Hadn't reached my mom in days so THAT wasn't expected news.
Oh, I see a different surgeon next week, so I shall see if that'll be worthwhile.

meh would be a good thing

J and D stayed home. They were in the way of DJ's routine, but who are we to complain if we aren't sick while they are?
Made for an annoying day, but the magicJack saga has hit the point of my being belligerent. Wasted another couple hours on chat with magicJack and calling Cincy Bell. Talk about perfect storm of ineptitude. MagicJack toook too long to port number so it wasn't available from Cincinnati Bell due to deactivation. The latter doesn't prorate so I submitted port 10 days before CB invoice period ended. MJ failed to port after I submitted it four times. Spoke with chatbot each time for an hour only to be told to talk to CB for another hour... failure to communicate is the MO of both communications companies I can firmly attest. I just wanna Yelp! A blue streak to convey my displeasure.

Reality and scenarios

Not sure where I left off, but our noisy Whirlpool dishwasher that was leaking too is worst case scenario in that I flipped it over today and found it needs at least $130 in parts. Paid three hundred for the machine six years ago, and a rack is rusting and buttons were already falling off. Not sure worthwhile to bother fixing it.
I will not buy another whirlpool product again is my current sentiment. Felt that way about our Samsung washing machine when it died after three months, but it was under warranty and was fix at no cost to us though it was a major pain in the whatnot.
D was stuffy during week and was tugging at her ear today while K was at urgent care for his diarrhea and vomiting.
J was moody. Could have been worse if I didn't get her flowers yesterday, I guess. Sick kids will stress the best of us...
MagicJack has yet to port my number from Cincinnati Bell; not sure who sucks more customer service wise but MagicJack only uses chat bots, and they aren't bright enough to read your complaints to offer suggestions.
