Whoopee

Just got in a few minutes ago and I'm really whipped. The drive was uneventful save it rained the whole way there and the mist was down pretty heavy at first. Made it through the confusing bridge with no problems and off at the right exit only to discover the rest of the directions were buggered up something awful. So I wandered around a bit downtown looking for a street that connected with the one I was looking for and finally found it and follwed it to where I needed to be. There was a lot of walking involved but it felt good to stretch our legs after the drive.



My sister and I both liked the specialist, she was calm and seemed to know her job but was still human seeming too. She wouldn't put a name on what is wrong with Adam yet since he needs to have a couple tests and see a threapist before she'll try and say for sure. She did acknowledge there is definately something wrong but it could be genetic, austism or another type of developmental disorder that had like 15 initials instead of a name. lol



We're happy with that since rushing to name what his problem is doesn't do us any good if it turns out to be wrong. She did change his medicine saying it wasn't doing a thing for him and she perscribed a anti anxiety medicine since that seems to be one of his biggest problems.



*why not, the rest of his family are that way*

Okay I'm the exception but I think it's cause I'm just too slow witted to have a panic attack o-0



But I'm really tired now and figure I've got about 15 mintues before I go take some Advil and turn in to sleep it off. lol

Going to be pulling out between 6-7 AM talking my nephew to the Cincinnati Childrens Hospital for evaulation. I really hope they can determine his status fully and recommend the right way to handle it. He's been diagnosed as high functioning autistic with speech problems. He's been in speech therapy about 1 year now and it's helping a lot but he does still have lots of problems speaking clearly. Either way it'll be nice to find out from experts in the field his true status. My sister swears if they say he's fine she's going to whip his butt all the way home, for all the stuff he's done. lol



The drive isn't really a bad one about 3-4 hours but looks like it'll be through rain storms the whole way since the rest of hurricane Fay is passing through this area now. So I'm adding an extra hour just for that reason, if we're early no problem. The only part of the trip I'm really dreading is the bridge crossing from Ky into OH going across the river since you need to be in certain lanes to get to different exits really quick and no one will ever let you move around if you're in the wrong way. Oh well I can always pretend I'm in a demolation derby and see what happens (just kidding Rat)



Does mean I won't be online any tomorrow and that'll be a bummer but needs must win out.

ya'll be good all right :)

I hated that bridge. It's confusing if you're driving it for the first time.



I wanted to wish you good luck on finding out what's going on with him and especially on finding ways to help him out.

ponderings

I posted a response to a thread about creatures cursed to hell having dreams. In it the person that posted it acknowledged that many VR members do not believe in "hell" but was asking for opinons on it.



I personally do not think dreams would be allowed since they engineer hope and an existance without hope would truly be hell.



But another post then stated that no one could actually know anything about it.



This got me to thinking of the ideal of faith and how that is what allows people to believe in things that we cannot prove (at this point). Made me think about the past and the future for 1000 years ago much of what we know to be fact today had to be accepted on faith alone then and I wonder what things we take on faith today may be proven as fact hundereds of years in the future?



Then what will be questioned? Interesting things to ponder I believe.

I am sure with the evolution of science and thought progressions we will still have many unanswered questions. More knowledge does not necessarily hinder faith or even begin to answer the questions of monumental substance.

Very interesting indeed, dear Lady. I have posted a rambling response to the thread on Science vs witchcraft started by Lifeblood. I think we are thinking alike on magick and religion. :) Let me know as I must get sleep.

Such fun

Went to the phone company office and threw a fit about my screwed up internet service since I upgraded. Honestly I've run more on my nephews wireless hub from next door than my own, since I upgraded. I've spent many many hours on the phone with their technical service (half of which cannot speak English well enough to understand me or me them) I've also been hung up one, put on hold for hours, had them refuse to transfer me to a supervisor. I could go on but I took the hub back to the office and said we can fix it or ya'll can have it back and I'll get my service elsewhere. They gave me a phone number for the Technical supervisors line direct and I came home and rebooted both the hub and my computer and it's still not working so I called and got a fellow that while I had a little trouble understanding him he was able to understand my English. He checked immediately and saw that it wasn't working and tried some simple fixes right then but when they failed to fix it he said he would get with a technican personally and get it fixed. Said he would call me back within 4 hours to let me know about it.



All I can say is We'll see...



Add to that misery that the tower site for my Sprint cellphone went down yesterday and took 15 hours to get back up and I'm a technology ticked off person this week.

I'm almost willing to place money that you didn't get a call within 4 hours from the tech. Maybe I'm a cynic or I've spent too much time speaking with Dell's help line.

Feeling Nostalgic

I was reading through the forums this morning and something made me remember an old favorite movie from the 80's of mine. Heavy Metal was strange to many but I just loved the thing. I still catch it when I can and should buy a copy but I don't keep many movies around since I hate clutter. Dumb I know. But this one song is still fun just because it can be.







Of course having had family that worked in the mines for generations it just works for me too. :)

Flubbed up big time

Sorry Birdie, I really truly am for I would never have stood you up if I'd been in my right mind. Woke up sick in the night and man I hate astomach virus. I couldn't even babysit my nephew and ended up taking phenegran all day to prevent the vomiting but slept pretty much all day with chills and pain. I completely lost a day somewhere for I would have sworn all day it was just Thrusday and I had til tomorrow to get over it to meet Birdie for dinner.



MY sister came in about 6pm to check on me and remind me that my brother was coming in to visit for the weekend tonight. I said not until Friday night and she just looked at me and said it is Friday stupid! I argued for a minute with her before I realized she was right and I looked at the clock and it was 6:09 I tried to grab my phone to call Birdie when it rang. Where are you?



Believe me I grovelled but nothing can really make up for doing a friend that way. I was feeling awful and now I'm on to terrible for being such an ass too. She's a good friend though and I know she'll forgive me but it'll be a while before I can forgive myself. I don't like taking my friends for granted and this feels way too much like I did.



Now I'm going to dope up some more and go back to sleep. I left the door unlocked for my brother to come in without me having to get up. Yea I know leaving your door open is asking for trouble but hey I'm in a small town city street with people on it constantly. I refuse to live in fear of the worst happening. Dummy is my middle name.

Games People Play

My nephew got me hooked on this online game Diablo II lords of chaos and I'm spending way too much time playing it. It's very addictive and I've spent the last couple of weekends staying up very late to play it with him online at the same time. Since his work schedule has him working until 1 or 2 AM I'm always asleep by the time he gets in to play a bit. Only on the weekend do we get to do it together and the game actually changes when 2 or more get together everything much harder to kill.



We killed Diablo our last game and now have his big brother Baal to battle in the normal level then the game starts over in Nightmare mode where things are much much harder to fight/kill. If one manages to defeat the Nightmare level then Hell level is the last stop though there is a side game called Cow level available where you portal to a land where cows walk upright use ray guns and will fry your butt if you don't watch it. lol Of course they Moo the whole time.



No vampires in the game but it's such a joy to kill everything you see! Ah delicious violence :)

I don't know why exactly but I've been hooked on watching the olympic competitions since I was a kid. No one else in my family were ever interested since back then basketball and football were not part of the games. But I always enjoyed the skating and swimming and diving competitions and the gymnastics are just awesome.



Of course after the US/USSR Hockey game in 80, they became much more popular with everyone else around here but these days they almost never show some of the older less popular competitions such as the shooting matches. It's a real artform to be accurate at such distances. When I was younger watching them the networks at least taped and played the games all night long with the lesser popular ones on then at least. yes I was odd enough to get up at 4 in the morning to watch some of them. lol Good thing they were during the school break.



There are some big differences in the games of today compared to those of my youth, commericalism most especially but they are still a fine example of sportsmanship that sometimes shows up.



BTW, Michael Phelps is awesome :)

I'm hooked on it too.



It just is sad to me that they only have 1 of the NBC owned outlets showing stuff at a time. If they "mulitplexed" I would be able to watch the shooting, archery, fencing, equestrian and other less "popular" events, instead of them being televised at 3:00AM.



I am kind of partial to the beach vollyball matches though!

We have been watching alot too...men/women who cares...perfect bodies are amazing to watch; the stuff those people can do is astounding. We watched the mens gymnastics semi-finals...jaw-dropping control those men have of their bodies. Synchronized diving is killer too. And yeah, Phelps...we are rooting for that kid, what a great story.

Got one of the most pleasant surprises yesterday evening when I logged onto VR. I had a message from Ishta (a coding Goddess) about re-doing the UO Timeline and since I'd just been looking at it earlier and thinking the same thing it was like so strange. lol But we bounced it around a little and a testing is underway to see how it looks. We're trying to simplify it a bit more and make it look even more awesome!



Of course that means I'll need to get myself back to working on it too. But that's a good thing since I've got notes scattered all over the computer about things I wanted to see added to it. Ishta even came up with a new categorie that will fit in really well with this site. I'll keep that a secret for now though while we work it up.



I responded to her message and went onto my next one and it was from the boss man himself, with an invitation to become a Dominar! I thought about it for about 30 seconds (while I waited for the shock to pass) then I happily accepted. I'm thrilled with the ideal of being able to help make this site more fun for all of us.



Rat and Birdie are already teasing me but other folks have been very nice with the congrats and encouragement. I just want to be honest and do a good job.

Just when I was so happy with my new higher speed dsl wireless hub, Windstream did something and now it doesn't work. I've spent most of the weekend and 5 solid hours either off line or on the phone trying to find someone there who (A) could speak friggin English and (B) knew what they were talking about.

Since I'm at my sister's using her computer I guess it's obvious that I had no such luck!



They have filled out another trouble ticket for me though and promised it would be fixed by 10pm tonight. Of course that was after the first trouble ticket was supposed to be fixed by 11 am yesterday.



Funny thing is they keep saying it's my lines unable to handle the upgrade but they don't need to do anything to the lines at my house just a technician at the office. Sounds to me like they can't do their damn paperwork right and someone keeps turning it on and off. I'll be contacting the business office today to file a complaint for the 2 hangups from their "outsourced" service department yesterday while I sat waiting on hold and demand a pro-rate on my bill for the 5 days (so far) that it's not worked that I'm going to get to pay for on my bill.



I wonder if I should remind them that they are no longer the only high speed internet provider in this area and I can move my phone and everything else to another company? Do you think it'd help?

Somehow I doubt it...
