and the world just keeps on keepin’ on, and I’m stuck in the armpit of Kentuck and wondering where the end of the tunnel truly resides. I’m pissed, I’m frustrated in my attempt to administer THREE lives; only two of which are mine. One was self induced financial madness, one was acquired legal hoops and neglect, and the other is my Da’s. And I’m looking at the world going “what the holy fuck is this shit?!?!?!” Prices through the roof, multiple verifications needed to fart with permission, politicos that are legally dead presiding over votes pre-midterm and a madman living in an echo chamber of yes-men and blackmail artists.
One bite at a time. I keep telling myself that. Somedays it helps. Other day I just wanna burn the whole thing to the ground, grab Lyssa and gear and GO,GO,GO!!!
Grab another fork full, chew slowly, chase with a shot of 100proof.
Patience
That was written while on the line with one of three help desks today. All three for one (technically one) issue. 2 hours of me Sonday eliminated forever,
BUT
The issue is now mostly resolved. Da has a celly available for 30 days, a landline as long as he keeps internet, and his online account to the latter is now cleaned up and accessible again. That should make future calls to HD not needed or much smoother.
The Celly thing: he’s promised us kids to at least try to adapt. He has till Oct21 to do so. If He wants to keep then, I can re-up the plan. If no, let the bloody thing collapse in a heap, and I take my backup phone back.
‘Its just a jump to the left’

Back when tech was mechanical and the phones were chained to the walls,,,
I do miss the 80’s, and we really had zero idea just how good we had it. Yet we heard the sirens call of ‘tech will make things easier’ and followed like the children of Hamelin followed a Peid Piper.
Did things get easier? Totally an arguable point and highly subjective to how smooth your personal tech is cooperating this week.
I think I can say, our stresses are higher for it: with or without that tech cooperation.
Sigh. Miss it all, I do,,,,
But, I have three more large chunk of elephant removed from the plate, and so long as they dont come back to haunt as indigestion,,,, keep chewin’! That elephant aint gone yet.
LLLLL!!!
