Okay, so there is definite interest in my Dell codes I posted about yesterday. Rather than everyone just kinda vaguely hint at their interest, if you want to get your hands on one, throw your preferred contact info in a comment. I’ve got 5 codes in total to hand off, so first come first served. Comments will be screened, ‘cuz I’m all about the respect of people’s privacy and whatnot. If your preference is to have it given to you via MSN, it’ll have to be when I get home. Sadly, they don’t let us access the MSN network from work. Email I can do from here. Questions, comments, fire ’em at me. Complaints, talk to anyone who isn’t me.

More on discount codes.

Another day, another nickle.
And already I’m wondering where Friday is. Though this time, it’s primarily due to the fact yesterday was dead as a goddamn doornail, and there’s more people coming in today than there were yesterday which means even more dead time. It’s a real good thing I’m getting paid to sit on my ass and escentially cruise teh intarwebz, because otherwise I’d probably be spending a whole lot less time online than I have been of late. Which… might actually prompt certain individuals to hit me repeatedly with various blunt and heavy objects, but y’know. Welp, speaking of that thing what pays me, time to move my fat lazy ass in that general direction. I don’t care how old I am, or how good the job, or how big the paycheck. James is not a morning person. James will not be a morning person. Cope.

I should be a professional transcriptionist.
Examples of my work can be seen on the LJ’s of both chickwith_stick and silly-singer, both of which have received rave reviews, if only by the owners of said LJ’s. I could do it professionally, and own like it’s nobody’s business. … On the other hand I’ve had better ideas.

Public service announcement: email may be borked.
It works for the moment, but god only knows how well or for how long. If someone comments/emails and I don’t respond until insane late tonight, that’s why. You’re not being ignored. Unless you deserve it but you already know who you are.

Not looking to move *right* now, but…
I could be persuaded. All this thing needs is AC and I give my 60 days’ notice next week. I think I’ve just discovered what part of my time off this summer will consist of. Sweet Jesus I have too much time on my hands.

I’m gonna miss this job.
But mostly, I’m gonna miss the discount. and since I’ve got more discount codes than I’ll be able to use in the next month and a bit… anyone want one? They’re not much; 15% off, but um, it’ll kill the taxes on crap anyway. Or something. If I’m being told to leave they might as well get used. who wants to use ’em?

I will probably be kicking myself by about noon.
But yes, I am in fact quite here and somewhat still awake. There are, including me, 35 people waiting to get calls. Now, keep in mind it’s 8:30 in the morning–it usually drops off throughout the day. I’ve already discovered we’ve pretty much become a secondary call center; if one of the others who handles calls for this department gets too busy, we start picking up the extra calls. That June 27th closing date I mentioned a couple weeks ago? Yeah, that’s probably getting moved up a little. Not that it concerns me, I mean I still get the severence package they’re offering me if I’m still here on closing day, it’d just be supremely awesome to know for sure just when closing day actually is. Y’know, so I can book that particular day off as a vacation. Hey, their rule is I still have to be employed here on the day they close the site. Not that I actually have to *be* here. Technicality? You be the judge. I really don’t care.

Because I fail at this peer pressure thing.
So I decided to add Iron Man (2008) to my list of things to be watched. And since I’m way too freaking cheap to bother with the theatres, it’ll have to be downloaded. Oh, darn. It’d better be at least half as good as the reviews/commentary I’ve been hearing (I’m looking at you, momallrat. :P).
On a completely–okay, somewhat–unrelated note, yes, I know I owe a review for The Lazarus Child/The Last Door. I just have to be in the right mood to write it. It may happen tomorrow. Possibly. But probably not. Tomorrow consists primarily of:
- work my ass off
- probably at least consider getting together with murlynns_view
- Blast the income tax people again (they were open on weekends last week, but not this week… buh?)
- grab 5 minutes of sleep and do it all over again tomorrow.
Not *too* busy, just busy enough that I don’t devote too much time to thinking. ‘Cuz, you know, bad things happen when James gets to thinking. And now, because I actually have to be mobile in an hour or so, I go invent breakfast.

Random question and such.
Because I can’t decide if I’m just odd or what. Am I the only person not overly impressed with not quite mainstream singer Ta da.
