Michael Jackson beat it today.

 

 

Yes, I know horrible joke right? (look at the title of post until you get it)

It’s always sad to see a celebrity go, although with michael…well a bit odd. I haven’t particularly been a fan of Michael, although I have recognized his talent. It seems a shame, it’s almost as if his life was wasted away and he could have done so much more. At least once he started to have the whole life change thing, I can’t put my finger on where it started, but somewhere along the way, I think his train got diverted and it just slowly fell away from the rest of us, in normalacy.

Anyway, he is gone now, and so I will remember him as he was back before all of the craziness.

and who knows, he may just come back as a zombie and start the zombie apocolypse with awesome dance moves.

I have to say, if im going to die by zombie, at least it’ll be entertaining until they reach me.

 

Thrillaaaaa, Thrilla niiightt!

*Boggle* @ Dell

 

 

dell support people are friggin idiots.
They called me and left a message this morning about calling them back so they can check the status of the repair. So i call them up, give them the case number and then just to make sure i go over the course of events in very specific and clear terms.
"I live in japan, so I had to send the laptop to relatives in the states to get repaired by your service guys. Service guy came out to relatives house, fixed laptop, and now laptop is being shipped back to japan for me to verify it has been fixed. When it gets here, i'll call you guys back and let you know how it went."

The guy then says to me, "oh, well we dont ship to japan, let me transfer you to customer service and they can help you out"

uhhhh, wtf, so I repeat back to him and said, no no, the repair is already done, its already being shipped back to me, I will call back when I verify it's done.
"ok, sir, let me transfer you to customer service"

*brain frizzes out from stupidity*
Idiots.

<note: some of that is annotated but not by very much>

Soo Sad

 

Well, one of my worst fears has happened. I dropped my ipod and the screen broke. Yes I know, horrible!  Horrible with a capital H %$#%$#%$#%^#$^^@

The gibberish above is the censored version of a curse that only Cthulu himself could conjure, it is for your own protection that I censored it.

Anyway, so the glass screen broke on the ipod and sending it in to apple will cost a whopping $119 bucks to get it fixed. Very sad indeed.

So far ive turned the ipod off and made myself not touch it, in fear of the glass scratching the lcd underneath, but if I send it in to apple they will end up just giving me another unit instead of repairing the glass.

The funny thing was, it happened the day after I started looking online for a case to protect it against falls

Arggh!

Ah well, yet another thing I will need to mail back to the states to get fixed….le sigh

Broke and strapped for cash?

 

Alrighty, so I haven’t written an update in awhile. Mainly nothing going on with Meredith out to sea for awhile. However, lately i’ve been wanting to write something down so that all of you who follow my blog (and never comment on stuff, ya bastards….this excludes you Cass <3) can get some sort of update that I truly am alive, lol.

Alas, I have as of late been short of material, until now.

On with the show:

As of late ive been partaking a lot of Hulu.com for my tv watching experience while the kids are sleeping, and ive run across something funny enough for me to share.

Yes, it is the show “Get me out of here, I’m a Celebrity”

Basically the show is about a bunch of celebrities dropped off into the middle of a rainforest and they have to go through their fears.

Of course the first thing that comes to my mind is, “my god these guys are really strapped for cash if they are doing this. I wonder how much they get paid”

Most of the celebrities on here are not really on my radar of people to watch, except for two.  Lou Diamond Philips, a great guy, who i really think is better than this show, and Alec Baldwin. However, I have to say, I don’t think a baldwin can do anything that can surprise me anymore.

Seriously, can you think of something, short of murder, that a baldwin hasn’t done yet?

Ya, didn’t think so :-P

Also, let me mention the wife of Rob Blagojevich, the former governor of Illinois. *head shake* The who and the what now?

Seriously, i did not recognize how bad his stupidity in trying to sell a seat on the senate caused so much grief as to make you flee to a rainforest.

I’m sorry ma’am, truly, I did not recognize how bad it was :-P

So anyway, check out the celebrities getting tortured, it’ll at least entertain you for an evening while you are drinking with friends :-)

Get me out of here, i’m a celebrity

Reverse OCD

 

So I think Rienna might have OCD, well, ok maybe not, but it’s about as close as I can explain it in short terms.

Basically, instead of being compelled to clean and put stuff in order, she is compelled to take every bin out of the cubby and empty it’s contents onto the floor. Then merrily move onto the next one.

Lemme show you what im talking about.

Imagine if you will, each of those boxes, maybe 1ft by 1ft, are filled to the brim with assorted toys. Now imagine them on your floor. Imagine all of the toys looking like an odd magma flow of plastic pieces and stuff animals strewn across your floor. Start to feel a bit crazy?

Yeah.. me too.

Man, I do love the kids a lot, but seriously, must you empty out every bin?
