The past few days have been absolutely annoying. There was a huge issue with my database being deleted. I wound up having to pay for it because supposedly it’s OK for hosts to charge you to restore a back-up even though you weren’t the one to have anything to do with it crashing in the first place. So someone finally realized it wasn’t my fault so thankfully I was refunded for it. I was up until 3:30 in the morning on Saturday trying to get that one fixed.
Sunday – I was supposed to go into work with Fran because there’s A LOT of cleaning to get done but since I was exhausted from the night before and Fran wasn’t feeling well because her back was acting up we both decided it would be best to just stay home and relax for the day. Unfortunately you can never relax around here, there’s some kind of a daemon walking around and he’s taking out just about everyone he can.
Last week, a few people passed away. Now, thankfully I didn’t personally know them but other people surrounding me were connected to them (six levels of separation..). A kid that went to school with my boss overdosed. A man was hit by a car and thrown a good 50 feet onto the grass of one of the churches in town and the ass hole who hit him decided to just keep driving. How can you hit someone with that kind of force and just take off?
Sunday (yesterday) as I was sitting down to begin working on the new template for krissy.nu we had a power surge and I lost everything. About a half hour to an hour later that one mini power surge then turned into absolutely no lights at all. I get a phone call from Alicia because she’s currently on her way to some huge accident in Locust Valley. Someone going east-bound wound up crossing over the west-bound side of the road and splitting a light pole completely in half, they were then air lifted for medical attention and this entire section of town (it was about 6 blocks up from me) was completely out of power for a few hours. Sean and I wound up heading down in that direction before we went grocery shopping. I’ve never seen a pole look like that before, and I hope to never see it again.
So I get my shopping done – excellent deals going on this week if you’re a Pathmark shopper btw – I come home and make dinner, I take a shower, and try to relax for the rest of the night. I get a text message from my boss asking if I could come in at 9am instead of 930 and then with my response to her I got nervous because I hadn’t heard from her in a while then I come to find out that in this major accident up the road there was a silver altima involved (which she drives). Thankfully, she wound up calling me a little while later, explained the delay and then instantly 200 pounds was lifted off of my chest.
With the way things are going lately… I know things come in threes but there are way too many triplets to deal with right now. There is a major evil entity walking around the Gold Coast and I truly do not like it.
