My living room is a mess, the unpacking and organizing the junk lol
 
I think the company I work for is going to do away with ID badges and go with a rectal scanner to let us into the office! At least it feels that way sometimes.

I go back to work Monday. It's part time and no summer work, that why I need a f/t job.
 
Wondering if I can fix the washer myself.
Otherwise I have to wait till Tuesday for the repairman.
The fill sensor is not working so the water doesn't stop.
The only thing I'm going to check is where the water fill is detected, as I think that's what the last guy showed me. Won't touch the electrical sensor. May ask my neighbor though since he's an electrician.

My life is backwards lol I did a mock interview where I did the real interview a week ago. This paid mock interview would have prepped me for the real thing. #mybackwardlife#typicalme#

They do a lot of things, but I work on their service provider side keeping servers and stuff in line for the voice/data customers and write a few tools for support techs and operations. It's ironic that the hoh guy worked on connecting the company's new PBX to the customer network for connectivity to our carriers. Just glad I didn't have to do any of the test calls; hate it when people ask me how calls sounded. I now go with "Fine to me" instead of "A little muffled and broken."

They remodeled our floor last week and you wouldn't think that new furniture would be a bad thing, except they went with an 80's Orwellian style - cube walls are short so there's no privacy and they made some policy changes about cube layout so now if I comply, I'll be facing a corner so it's harder to know someone is behind me. (Last year, they worked out something with the city and we have police walking throughout the building during the day). Some people complain about the noise, but it's kinda nice to have more light. Just be nice to not have people passing around peripheral vision so much.
 
Ordered pizza tonight. Was hoping for the pretty delivery girl to come. They sent someone else; turns out they have two pretty delivery girls. Or maybe it's from me not getting out.
 
thinking about the NSAD tournament

being at the tournament today and yesterdaymade me feel sorry for those oral only deaf or hoh people who have came to AD expressing their feelings of frustration and loneliness in the hearing world makes me much much more appreciative of the Deaf world. I am soooo lucky that I discovered it. No more feelings of isolation, , and now by being in the hearing world. I just thank my lucky stars.

It's got to be frustrating, even me as an Interpreter dealing w hearing people who can't comprehend my duties they look at me with a blank face. I had a mock job interview some of the people interviewing just didn't get it. I felt frustrated w one lady luckily I was able to confine it well but deep inside I wanted to say, don't you know what is a sign language interpreter ? Duh for real !

My plans turn out they way it was suppose to . I ended up shredding old papers, tossing out old magazines and books away. I collected all these loose Durán Durán pics, tossed them out and kept my Durán 2 books and mags. I boxed a few vinyls that I won't give away love my Duran Duran best 80's group! I have my Rio album hence my screen name NOT from that cartoon movie , the bird , no! Duran Duran album and video :)

im glad you were willing to open your mind and be blended into the Deaf world. some HOH or deaf oral have a hard time blending into the Deaf world because of their attitudes toward to the speaking issue, language and ASL.
