and the rain comes down

I'm looking out the front window watching a furious downpour. I suspect that it will soon start with the hail. It sure does rain a lot here. I guess that would be normal to think that after moving here from a desert.

It's been a spell since I was last here.

The Mr. has gotten his ass in a little bit of trouble with the law. We won't know the full extent of it until after the 30th - and then I can only hope and pray that will be the end of the whole goddamn ordeal. Although, I have to admit, what he's been doing that got him trouble has worked very well for the two of us over the years. It kept peace in the family ... so to speak.

One of my doctors was pulled from me -- without my knowledge or even having the opportunity to correct whatever it was that pissed him off. I was very disappointed in how SN handled the whole affair. After not receiving any files from him for a couple weeks, I finally started emailing and calling. Finally, after 2 days, the director had the balls to tell me that he was not happy with my work and they were forced to pull the account from me. It was my only plastic surgery doc -- jackasses.

Got nothing else to say.

Yet another nasty fact about MSN Spaces

After working for the new company for awhile, I've come to realize that I don't believe I selected enough doctors, hence I find myself with much time on my hands. I relayed this information to the quality control person. In turn, she invited me to chat with her on Messenger. I gladly accepted because this would also give me access to her when I have questions regarding procedures and whatnot.

It has really worked out well having this line of communication because she's a very busy person (or so she tells me) and often times does not respond to emails if they are not 'fires'. For a couple weeks, she would always respond to anything I messaged her with. During one of these chats, she asked me if I would be interested in a surgical center account. She went on to say it's an easy account, all American native doctors and about 250 reports a month. She even sent me a sample report of one of the doctors, which I transcribed and oh yeah! he was easy on the ears!

Needless to say, I got myself all worked up and excited about having an entire surgical center account and emailed her with a whole list of questions. After a couple days and no response from her, I messaged her and asked if she had had time to read my email with the questions. She did not respond to that message. So, a few days later I messaged her again. Still no response.

By this time, I'm getting pretty frustrated with this lack of communication from her because obviously, SOMEONE is typing up the account right now. I let another week go by and then I emailed her yet again asking if the account was still available and if so, could we set up a time to chat about it and once again, no response.

I was chatting with someone else on messenger (another MSN Spaces blogger) and right clicked on her nickname and selected profile. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Her profile is directly connected to her blog! Soooooooooooooooo, that would mean that mine is too and there is NO WAY to disassociate the two without removing the contact from the chat list.

I have to wonder now, am I being blown off this account because she read my blog?

Fucking MSN!
