2001-08-01 8:30 a.m. strangled animal sounds

Good morning! The boy on the forums is definately selling his drawing tablet. I spent $75 yesterday on a new battery for my father's car, and this will cost another $75, but I've had an idle want for the little gadget. Hooray for living in America, where idle wants are always fulfilled?

"This battery has been in your car since 1993," the woman inspecting the car said. "We only get this every few years."

Eh. I think my dad has been refilling the battery somehow. When I told him that it needed to be changed, he said oh, you don't change a battery. But since I didn't know how to do it otherwise, and he's in San Jose, I took it in.

Okay, everyone download "I'm Not Afraid" by Fleming & John (I haven't downloaded a song since Napster, or else I'd know where to link you). I've decided that I have to learn how to sing this song. But Fleming sings twenty bars without breathing. I made a point of doing it but I could feel the oxygen deprivation in my legs, I know I couldn't do it standing up. In short, I am impressed with that woman.

My hair is doing that weird cowlick front flip thing again, which means it's time to get it cut. I do not feel pretty today, I feel like a girl that has worked a phone for 32 hours and is about to work it for eight more. Work it, work it baby. I had a woman scream and cry at me over the phone. She wanted a bereavement discount for her neice to take the bus across the country to her mother's funeral. The mother had died in a car accident, everyone was broke. She was being irrational and it made me irrational, I almost told her that if the girl pretended to be a runaway and went to the cops, we could put her on a bus for free. If she found a disabled person wanting to go across the country for some reason, we could give them a ticket.

I didn't, though. I said I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do. She said do something, you do something now. I told her, I can transfer you to my supervisor. She made a strangled animal sound that I took to mean yes, please do, thank you very much, and I transferred her.

I am one cold bitch. And also ugly, I'm a cold, ugly bitch. With the money for stupid things like drawing tablets. Gugh, I'm going to go take a shower.
