Repercussions
Mar. 14th, 2025 03:53 pmMy yearly account payment for DW is coming up next month and WOW it doesn't feel like it's been a year. So, I have to set aside the money for that in April and possibly push Juna's vet appointment back from May to June. idk, things keep coming up when I'm supposed to be putting money aside for Juna's appointment... at least he's healthy, so unless something huge happens in the meantime he'll be fine. =/
Today Lee did the shopping and managed to find the binders I asked him to look for (YAY!!) so I'm gearing up to do that once I'm done typing this entry. I have to swap Horror High (et al) into a bigger binder and upgrade the second Storm Season et al binder from a 2" to a 3" so just generally switching everything over and labelling/re-labelling things.
I'm currently watching the movie Bite, which I've watched about a million times, so I don't have to pay close attention to it, I can work on other things while it's playing, which is great, I love movies like that, I get stuff done while still enjoying the film.
Yesterday I watched Big Bad Wolves and Excision... and then immediately deleted them from my hard drive because they were NOT my cup of tea, despite sounding promising in the recommendations video I watched. Excision in particular was really weird and very uncomfortable at times and also I just wanted to fucking STAB the mother in the movie. Big Bad Wolves was just... slow paced and kind of boring, in the end. *shrug*
Today Mom and I went for a (very slow) walk to the Dollarama at the corner so I could buy a plant pot, and I ended up with TWO plant pots, a mug for Dad, some paintbrushes, some plastic containers (for bailing the aquarium I hope next week-ish), some fruit Mentos, a pack of Skittles and a bottle of Code Red Mountain Dew. So, basically, I went completely off the rails as usual. :D;;
Then when we got back I used one of my new pots to repot my Baby Rubber Tree, now named Gregory House M.D. (just "House" for short) and then started watching Bite and put together the three little snap-together dinosaur models that Dad sent me in my Christmas package. They were relatively easy once I figured out which animals they were (a dilophosaurus, an ichthyosaur and a plesiosaur.) Now I just have to figure out where to put them.
And finally...
I JUST GOT A CALL FROM FUCKING MCDONALD'S! THE most POLITE and CORDIAL call that you could ever IMAGINE, where a NEW manager calmly and pleasantly discussed my T4 situation with me and set about getting me back into the easystub website so I can print it out (I have to wait until next Friday for the system to reboot with my password, and then I can try.)
Basically, when I called the CRA it sent up a red flag, I'm SURE that's what happened, and they must have come down on McD's HARD. I'm kind of giddy, actually. Like the self-satisfaction is REAL right now.
Anyway, if I try easystub next week and it still doesn't work, that same manager is on shift that day so I'm supposed to call and let her know, and she says she'll get the ball rolling on getting an actual physical copy of my T4 sent from head office. She really was super nice and accommodating. After all the dicking around the past month, it was really nice to talk to someone so calm and pleasant.
