Felicidades

Felicidades… moving right along… I haven’t had much to say lately… I’ve been on vacation this week but that doesn’t appear to mean anything to my employers because they managed to call me 11 times on my first day of vacation, 7 times on Tuesday, by Wednesday they managed to keep it down to 3, 5 calls on Thursday, 1 on Friday, and we’re back up to 2 for today… I had to give myself a break and let the voicemail take the calls after the first day… I don’t think that was too nice but niether was the fact that I was on my first vacation after 2 years of non-stop work…
Now we’re winding down towards the new year and I need to think if my new years resolution was accomplished… hmmm… I can’t remember what it was… so I’ll say that everything was accomplished.
Ahhh yes… Living in an apartment has been nice… I just have to put up with my downstairs nieghbor. The guy is a complete …. (fill in the blanks)… So the first night I moved in it was about 2 in the morning and I was with family painting… aparently he didn’t like that… so he let us know we were too loud by banging on the cieling. ok… no problem… I didn’t pay much mind to it… Another night I was listening to music and it was barely 11pm… he banged on my floor again! I got pissed off because I didn’t think I was being loud especially since I am never home and not to mention I don’t make noise. So I yelled back through the floor. I think he got the point because he hasn’t complained since then… Buttttt…. he has this habbit… the guy flushes his toilet and lets his water run when he hears me taking a shower… So I let the water run for a few minutes before I decide to hop in. This allows him to flush the toilet more then 10 times, often one right after another… then I hop in when I can tell he got tired of flushing…
Last month the site went down… I haven’t had time to thank everyone, but here it is… Thank you. Especially all of the bloggers that actually helped out with a donation… even if it was simply a dollar.
What else? ahh yes… I learned/realized a few other things… we grow out of everything… my parents sold thier house… and finally, this year I managed to get the highest amount of tickets… wether it was a parking ticket, speeding ticket, seat belt ticket… you name it, I got it…
Aparently profiling of a young hispanic in a new BMW is more then just probable cause… One night I was in Washington Hieghts… I was eating at B-B-Q’s… got in my car, pulled out of my parking spot, turned the corner and a cop was in my left lane… he slowed down, got in back of me and proceeded to pull me over. They said they saw me using my phone… I argued that I wasn’t using it, I had just finished eating and was about to visit my family in the area. I had it in my hands, but I was not using it. They came back saying that they were giving me a break on the cell phone but they were giving me a ticket for not having my seat belt. I just have one word. Profiling.
