This is from Monday, May 4, 2015
good thing i didn't bet this time. my guess was april 26, male and "arthur" for a name. then my guess was "Alice" for a girl, since charlotte is already a popular name. wrong and wrong. lol.
so at 5 a.m. a bright light shines over to my favorite window where I am sleeping - normally I like the view from there and I like to read from there and often fall asleep there. the new people have their sliders open and the overhead light on. its 200 feet away but it shines right over and I wake up. grrrr. wonder if its just because they are still unpacking or because they have a visitor from new York (that is what the plates say). from what I can see, its a man with white hair, overweight, who g says he thinks is the one who was INSIDE my carport! a woman and then a guy a bit younger than them, a room mate, son or brother, I can't tell. so woken up again.
I'm at k's. we had a great dinner. some kind of mixture of brown rice, mixed veggies, salmon and chicken. FABULOUS. love it when he comes up with new stuff. rum and ginger ale. I was supposed to be here Monday, he said, I thought tuesday. did I really do that? he made butterfly shrimp for monday. can't tell if he is serious or busting my chops. ate festival leftovers all day Monday and slept. I must have needed it. its like my body was saying, I'm not going anywhere. it must have rained a lot because there were branches down when I went outside this morning.
went around the block and gave the grey tiger ivermectin med. waiting for the cheristin to wear off to give it something better, hope I remember not to use that product again. rn says that new one from walmart, methoprene with fipronil even worked on the dogs. hope it does, its supposed to be the same as frontline plus. advantage multi wasn't working. then it should be okay?
had "rum" he claims with ginger ale, which was actually good. he says c was here and stayed over watching wrestling. he stopped drinking coffee at night because it was disrupting his sleep. he used to think that coffee had no effect on him. I think that would depend on how much alcohol he drank and he no longer drinks as much - though still more than me, so that is what was messing with his sleeping for the last few years. lol. even he is amused. it used to be like, are you SURE caffeine isn't the problem and he was like, no. definitely not. hmmm.
its cold again. I'm wearing a cashmere/cotton sweater. weird how its cold and its may. the third new guy walked out because of the crap pay. no real surprise. one didn't return his ap. one got processed and then was outraged on the fees and this one didn't even go to get processed, just called to say the money sucks and then they have fees as well. sorry. I have nothing to do with what they charge. it was totally different ten and fifteen years ago and the truth is the more they get away with the more they will do, as sad as that is.

plus two other, one, who used to work in this office park ten years ago, never returned his ap and one who simply wanted more money and never returned his ap....oh, and d\'s father, but he has been applying and not showing up or not returning his ap\'s for over two years. what is that? two of those i\'m not sure i can hire here anyway. was really surprised another quit before starting. then someone picks up an ap today to return after 6, and ALSO doesn\'t return it. we\'ll see. lots of things being rearranged around here as well so very unnerving.
d says to me yesterday that his father really needs a steady job because real estate is doing so poorly. hmmmm, perhaps RETURNING applications and being AVAILABLE might get him a job? just a guess. lol.
It sucks to have a light shine on you when you are trying to sleep. Geo and I go to sleep at different times and he reads in bed, so there\'s light. I have a really good sleep mask now and don\'t see a thing and keep sleeping. Maybe that\'s something you can try. *hugs*
i used to have one of those, back when i used to travel. good idea.
