January 26th

Major ice storm hit and was without power and a home for several miserable days! The dog and I packed up and went to the cousin's house, for shelter and warmth - alas, no Internet as his wires were taken out by the ice, so i hauled the tinky TV over that you can run via batteries or electricity, about a 4 inch screen that you get channels by turning a knob, like a radio. got the news, weather, and got to cop in a couple of TV shows. slept on the futon from hell! (with the dog).

I should feel fortunate, I did get cognitive enough to remember the library had computers and fought the hoards of people needing computer/Internet fixes daily in order to communicate and deal with eBay issues.

Still no job, signed up with Manpower, in hopes to get a "gig" (I hate that word), reminds me of a TV show my kid used to watch called "Fifteen". Mother sent some money to help since I couldn't sell on the Bay that week, and my account was boosted from cell phone sellers, which I had to get straightened out (thank goodness for cell phones). Cousin has taken my old computer to work on it, then hopefully will take this one, to upgrade it and get the glitches I have created by downloading crap cleaned up (again).

Of course, will have to hear him bitch, but what else is new. Have a room mate. He hates her. He evidently was not as moved out as I thought, and it caused major pissing and moaning due to his stuff still pack ratted in the room. Most of it is sitting in my family room, waiting for a place to go when he gets around to it.

Had storm damage, lost all of my food in the fridge and freezer. BTW, my cousin calls the roommate Jabba. That is not her name, and I have become accustomed to hearing that I am afraid when she gets back (the cold was too much and since she had alienated him by doing rapid fire questions when she first met him, left for Michigan to see her boyfriend for a few weeks). I don't miss her, and the money isn't THAT much, she has lousy habits wanting to be up all nite cooking, eating, and on the computer, which has Jean Luc's sleep habits screwed now.

Her computer was broke, and she is/was on mine all nite - every night, not a happy camper, but she is doing online schooling, so figured it was an important aspect. She broke one of my roller stools like mechanics use, weight limit 300 pounds - she goes maybe double that! Thus, the Jabba name from the cousin. With head phones, so she wasn't only doing home work, school work, was doing the tube, chat and a bunch of other stuff!

The agreement was she help me organize tarot, but her idea is hauling a tub over and asking about each item high end or low end, which means nothing, as all I want it put into the carriers sideways to see the titles, before I can really organize it. So now, my complete house looks like a battle zone, not just the back room. Have began cleaning it (back room) removed one table, have a desk to can out, and get my cousin's nice desk out of her room, will give her an alt desk, i noticed (thankfully before he did) she had left drink containers sitting on it, and got them off.

Do you remember the cartoon of the heavy lady looking for her chijuajua (dog), fluffy, putting up posters and the dog is smashed in the crack of her ass? She reminds me of this woman, get the visual! Well, enuf bitching, best get off here and get to moving more crap!
