So, I was chatting with a co-worker tonight and he told me a funny true-to-life customer service situation he had experienced in his nine years of customer service.
This lady called him and said that her keyboard doesn’t work. He went through the steps of troubleshooting her issue:
and so on. She said she did all those and explained it worked for a while and then stopped working.
So, my co-worker (I will call him A) sent a tech onsite to help hands-on. The tech called him back a half and hour later and this is how the conversation started.
Tech: Man, you won’t believe this.
A: What happened?
Tech: You just can’t believe what she did.
A: Did you fix it?
Tech: Yeah, I fixed it. *still has a shocked voice*
A: What was the problem?
Tech: She took out all the character keys out and put them in alphabetical order!
Imagine my ROFLMAO! It was hilarious! This was the first time I’ve heard this type of situation! It was too funny not to share. :)
Lucien and the kids were watching a movie, and one of the actors said in a New York accent, "I'm walking heah (here)!" Dani asked what that phrase meant, and Lucien said, "That's what they say in New York. In Texas, it means 'Excuse me.'" Imagine my laughter!
I was looking through my old posts in LJ looking for some book review I did way back then and I saw this. This is soooo funny to read. Also annoying. :P Posted on Nov. 5th, 2003 at 01:45 am
Okay, just because I was bored, and decided to look into a chat room, this guy comes along and ruins my day:

Leiza [1:28 AM]: sorry i guess i am..indulge me
NineDayys [1:29 AM]: i dont want to go through every single details but having casual sex is the nature of men
Leiza [1:32 AM]: i guess so, but not all men are unfaithful
Leiza [1:33 AM]: they are only unfaithful because they are not satisfied in bed with their wives..and i do that perfectly for my husband..he has no complaints
NineDayys [1:33 AM]: we all say that but dont be so naive

Leiza [1:33 AM]: and you’re just being an ass
NineDayys [1:34 AM]: look, i’m not disagreeing with you but i’m a man and i know what men do

NineDayys [1:35 AM]: for u to say that ur man is faithful i think is a joke
Leiza [1:35 AM]: don’t put others down just cuz you haven’t found the right booty
Leiza [1:35 AM]: then I’m sorry for you because of your cynicism

NineDayys [1:37 AM]: denial maybe but not the truth…
Leiza [1:37 AM]: why do you think all Pinays are mail-order brides
Leiza [1:37 AM]: denial maybe for you but not for me
Leiza [1:37 AM]: you stereotype Pinays like they are the sluts of the earth..don’t even try that with me
NineDayys [1:38 AM]: lol, ur totally out of context now
Leiza [1:38 AM]: whatever
Leiza [1:38 AM]: that’s what you’ve been thinking all along
NineDayys [1:39 AM]: newsflash for you: sex is natural for men whether they be faithful or not
NineDayys [1:39 AM]: okay, so dont give me that crap bout ur man being honest and faithful
Leiza [1:39 AM]: lol..of course, sex is natural for men..it is for women too…and it doesn’t mean they have to be unfaithful
Leiza [1:39 AM]: well he is
NineDayys [1:40 AM]: u still dont get it at all
NineDayys [1:40 AM]: gosh how could u be so naive
Leiza [1:40 AM]: oh i get it all right…it’s YOU who doesn’t get it. you have cynicism in your heart and you think all men are pigs..well they’re not
Leiza [1:41 AM]: i think you are the naive one

From Dani’s teacher:
Mrs. McArter,
So, we are in math stations right now and Dani is telling her partner about how her mommy went to the dentist so her sister Lauren could come out of mommy’s tummy. Her partner asked why the dentist and she said, “I don’t know but that’s where they went”. Hahahahaha.
Mrs. Nelson
Ha!
But no, I will be a good girl and stay where I am.
I will be a good girl and stay where I am. I will be a good girl and stay where I am. I will be a good girl and stay where I am. I will be a good girl and stay where I am. I will be a good girl and stay where I am. *sigh* I feel like I’m losing a fighting battle. But no, I will be a good girl and stay where I am.I have a somewhat shallow sense of humor. Almost anything will make me laugh if it tickles my bones.
One in particular, today, was when I was on my way to pick up some lunch. There was this guy in a motorcycle “crotch rocket” type, and I noticed I could almost see a plumber’s crack. I kinda snickered and checked to make sure I wasn’t seeing things, right when the stoplight turned red. But just as I was going to glance towards him, he turned and looked my way. It was as if he felt I was looking at him. Of course, I turned away just as he did that. What amused me was the fact that I turned away like that, and also the fact I even tried to check if he was showing a plumber’s crack. Maybe he felt a breeze back there. I didn’t bother to check again. The light had already turned green. Lawl.My cousin, Via, on the right, and nephews, Josh and Jorell. I love how the faces were captured on camera. :)Taken back on Independence Day, 2006.
I think it’s about time for a journal entry, donchatink? Thought I’d start with a nice title to this entry, from a song by The Carpenters (love Karen!).
Well, it has been a busy 2 weeks for me. After an exhausting drive from Texas to Indiana (Luci drove most of the way, of course), we finally met our destination. Dani wasn’t really that bad of a traveler. She slept most of the way, and believe me she had better sleeping ‘quarters’ than we had, and only woke up for feeding and changing. She wasn’t really that fussy either. Tips for new parents: driving is the best way to get the baby to sleep! :D
Luci and I got there Saturday morning from driving all night Friday. We were so excited that we weren’t even tired after the long drive because we wanted to catch up with everyone. It was really nice to finally meet some of my paternal grandmother’s side of the family. There was an uncle and an aunt that I only knew from old pictures (and they only knew me when I was a baby like Dani). There were some cousins that I haven’t seen in years, and cousins that I met for the first time. I must say, it’s so heartwarming to just be in the midst of family that you haven’t seen in a long time. It’s like going back to the Philippines and seeing my siblings again. Ang sarap talaga (it really feels good).
We had lunch at a park and had some games like Water Balloon Toss and there was a history game about Israel that was very informative. This was also the first time that my dad and everyone got to see my daughter since she was born. We also did a dedication for Dani, sort of a baptism but instead of water, it’s with laying of the hands. It was so touching I couldn’t help but cry, even though I tried to hide it. *sniff* *sniff*
Here’s a nice picture of Dani with a pretty flower growing in my uncle’s backyard:
On Sunday, we did a family mini-concert in my uncle’s church (he’s the senior pastor there). I have pretty talented relatives, I tell you! Love it. :) They made a video of it in Windows Media format. If you want to see it, I might have to ask permission from the others if it’s okay. After the concert, more catching up with each other, getting to know one another, making lifelong new friends. Good times. :) It’s just too bad we had to leave that evening.
When we drove back, Luci drove for a while but got tired. I think our tiredness finally caught up to us, because when I took over, I was only able to drive 60 miles and I had to pull over to take a nap along with Luci. And what a nap it was: 2 hours! We finally woke back up and Luci drove the rest of the way, while I sat in the back taking care of Dani. When we got home, we definitely crashed, but it was all worth it. The reunion was definitely not to be missed! I can’t wait for the next one. :)
I’m also back at work. Nothing has really changed while I was gone, if there was some changes done, they didn’t affect what I was currently doing, which was cool. Everyone was glad that I was back. Of course, I had to show off some baby pictures. :) I also had my annual employee evaluation done and yay, I get a promotion! Thank God for blessings. :) Anyway, because of work, I have to drop off Dani at my mom’s office to have someone look after her for a few hours and then Luci can pick her up after he gets off work since he works 9 to 5 now. It’s a really good set-up because I only get to have someone look after Dani only on Mondays and Tuesdays and I get to watch her on Wednesday to Friday, then Luci watches her from Saturday to Sunday when I’m at work. Everything works out fine. I just have to keep up with it with my insomnia and all kicking in again.
I was a little bit worried about my hair falling out lately, sometimes in clumps. After searching through the web, I realized that it’s normal for hair loss 3 months after delivery, which is about where I am, and affects about 50% of women and is due to the hormonal changes that my body is going through. Whew! I thought I was going to go bald soon! As this article says, “remember this is a temporary situation and the good news is that as each hair falls out, a new one begins to grow. “ Yay!
My website is down again after another hacker infiltrated it. My fellow moderators and I have decided to take it down for a bit. I have also talked to my web host to totally clean out the files I had in there and recreate the account for me so we could start over. (And yes, backups were done before the clean up.) Hopefully, the site will be back up again in a few days’ time. I’m waiting on confirmation from my fellow colleagues on further steps we’re deciding on. The Geek Staff, you know who you are (check your email, please, and respond as needed), hehe.
Prayers are needed again as we are still in a bit of a financial slump. Being off work for a long time hasn’t helped that much either, even though I was still paid with some of my vacation pay. Just hoping there will be at least a big break where we can catch up to some of our bills. Ah, such is life!
That’s it for now. Good day to y’all.
