Flynn's Paws: My Thoughts, My Gripes

Tag: myBlogging-category

Describing my immediate surroundings towards the beginning and a twist to the tale or possible solutions to issues towards the end of some blogs and how they relate to my expectations of the world at large.

  • 20101215-Weathery Ways

    Yay! The sunshine came out around noontime. This morning the sun was hiding behind gray clouds. That made the sunshine looked hazy. I thought about seeing the blue skies from behind those gray clouds. I got my wish after a very strong torrent of rainfall last night.

    Last night, Maw and I watched a televised show about angels.

    “[Each raindrop is an angel].”

    I believe angels came to wash away not only dirt and grime but water the earth and its plant life.

    And during this lunch’s walk, there were spout-lings of green grass growing on soil soaked by yesterday’s storm and only one patch of very small yellow flower blooming. I miss my dandelion roars along my walking path.

    There were leaves of all sizes and shapes everywhere – green ones with brown spots, maroon, red, brown, yellow and orange, too!

  • Fallahing Leaves

    Last Friday, I saw golden leaves all along the sidewalk near the shipping/receiving area. As I turned my car into the back parking lot, I saw three Asian women taking pictures. One was posing on the leaves.

    On Monday, the same leaves of golden yellow have turned crispy brown. Today during lunchtime, I walked around the block, upon the sogging leaves of brown, yellow, red and orange. I kept walking a slow pace while thinking how gorgeous. It was my first time to walk through wet leaves.

    Addendum-Last edited by FLYNN on 20101215 at 05:13:23 AM UTC: Just as each raindrop is an angel, so are the tears of Allah of each fallen leaves.

  • Blog Stats Slowing

    My blog stats have been coming to a screeching halt. According to one of the threads from the WordPress.com forum, placing a “static page” (like my “Howdy!” page) reduces the chance of the weblog site from hitting the general search engines. The “front/home page” should really be set to the “late posts”, which is now rendered to a static page called “blog“.

    I don’t care. As long as I blog and as long as there is at least one view daily, I’m a happy camper.

  • X-Farts’ Party

    Oh, God! So the new guy comes around and asks moi if I’ll be going to their Friday party. If it were not for Hoan, I wouldn’t go. Because, you see, like him, I’m only a contracted worker and do not know the full-time staff (nor do I friggin’ care to find out). I answered that I didn’t know the location but answered in the affirmative. I then emailed Hoan several times about the situation and had offered him a ride. Because I want to be in control of my vehicle!

    He then came back with a sheet to enter the food items were are to bring to the party. I said I’ll bring pancit. He replied that he is getting hungry just thinking about it. I thought to myself that he is gorgeous and such as player, even though he is married. Then he asked if I’ll bring anyone and I replied loudly: “Hoan!” I wasn’t going alone with a bunch of professional thugs. I would feel creepy.

    Once again, please extract me from the temp job from hell. Y’all will do we a service. I cannot breath the same air as with all those ASIANS working there! Bahahaha!

  • 20101214-Being Bored

    Besides being bored and hating certain people at work, I really do NOT want the job. But I need a job. JenJen wants and needs the job. I should be thankful for the “prosperity” of being able to provide support to the team.

    But six months is enough. If only Phan lets me go away, I could collect unemployment (again) and be with my parents. You see, the twosome are able to get around. However, Paw continues to drive with near-misses – almost causing accidents and giving Maw high-blood pressure.

    I have nowhere to go and really do NOT like the location of my desk. To hell with your blessings! I should be grateful for having the opportunity to learn what’s it like to work in a manufacturing environment. But the girl needs it more than me. Give it to her, even though she doesn’t know Excel spreadsheet. Who cares?

    For crying out loud, Hoan is an annoying puss, just like the boss and and the rest of the predominantly “male-oriented” team. Steven seems to have caught a cold and has let out several sneezes. Bobby, Phan and Nam too have sneezed well. They must miss the beautiful JenJen. Hehehe!

    Seriously, for what it is worth, I’m not interested. Extract me from the temp job from hell and I’ll be a happy puss-head, nonetheless. God I have scheduling and pegging. It’s easy but mindless and I still mess up! Sheesh

  • 20101214-Weathery Ways

    At around 5:00pm, we could hear the strong rain pelting the roof at work. I made scary sounds of : “Oooo!” And then mumbled more profanities under my breath for being stuck here. The whole day was cloudy just like the lies of this planet.

    I managed to walk around for 30 minutes during lunch and another 30 minutes of uncomfortable cat nap inside my car. Good thing the clouds did not release their rain waters because I surely would have been pissed and soaking wet! I need to get circulation into my legs, butt and back because of working three friggin’ hours overtime last night. I was in pain!

    I got pissed off last night and sent my “boost” to disable those “magicians,” the spy satellites and the HAARP antennas! Imagine the fools using symbols, words and tools to force nature to do their bidding! Imagine the citizens being bombarded with radiation from the skies.

    For the past few days, the buzzing sensation of HAARP activity into my brain while in at my workstation upstairs and while trying to sleep simply would not cease!

  • 20101213-Trying Theme

    Last night, I couldn’t stand editing my paid CSS upgrade. As a result, I stumbled upon a pretty theme:

    Sweet Blossoms by TalkXHTML.com

    A narrow two-column design that satisfies the pink lover in all of us. Read more about Sweet Blossoms →

    —

    I love it! It’s all pink, sweet, flowery and full of hearts and butterflies! AND it’s a narrow column theme. Although the fonts are small, use the “zoom-in” feature of web browser.

  • 20101213-Nothing New

    Just the same: Work, eat, sleep, poop and whine. The weather was gray and cloudy but amazingly not cold or freezing because the windows to the vehicles parked outdoors were clear as if no dew touched the surfaces. Good thing, because I forgot my black hat/scarf and black vest to keep warm.

    No dandelion roars appeared for the past week or so, except the crow making sounds from the tree branch of a tree located across from the company where I work a temp job from hell. That was during my lunch walk halfway to and from the eBay campus. No soccer players played.

    Only a tiramisu ice cream cake for the beautiful Indian girl’s birthday allowed for temporary refreshment as I worked an extra three friggin’ hours or so, just trying to schedule new orders from the third quarter allocation. The cup of Sunny Delight helped to keep my blood sugar level from dropping or to keep my irritation from working late into the evening at bay.

    So there you have it: The twosome were kind enough to set a dinner for me and joined me while I ate for a good one hour until 10:00pm. Dishes were washed and dried and my lunch and water were packed for tomorrow. I cannot wait to be let go from this temp job from hell.

  • 20101212-Weathery Ways

    The sunshine is barely coming out of gray sheen of clouds with some blue skies in the background. The three of us had just returned from eating at Goldilocks restaurant and after having done grocery shopping at DeCA commissary store in Moffett Field, CA and then Michael’s Arts and Crafts store in Milpitas, CA, where we bought two 16 x 20 frames at half-off for $15.00 each. This is for the photos of us during my anniversary day a few days ago – one of the five posing during that evening and one of the twosome in front of the parish that morning.

    The weekend weather was surprisingly warm because of the lack of cold breeze. I was able to wear a light sweater for the Saturday’s evening mass and a light sweat shirt this morning without feeling cold. I believe the recent ingestion of Vitamin B-12 has increased my body’s ability to transport oxygen to my cells. I noticed too that this morning, my wee little are pink and no longer bluish in color. It’s inherited from Paw, who has spider veins, too. Hahahaha!

  • 20101211-Weathery Ways

    Today is cloud. The winds are still. A plumber from Caltek snaked the pipe clean because Paw flooded it with too much water. It seems he’s getting forgetful and is not completely aware of his environment and he looses track of time – wasting minutes washing the dishes and spending too much time in the bathroom.

    Yesterday and the day before were also cloud and rainy, too. During my post-lunch walk, I see how beautiful the yellow leaves of the tree lined the sidewalk and how a baby black crow bobbed it head up and down in response to my cawing sound and head movement up and down as well. I seem to be able to “communicate” with birds in this fashion. I know how they say thank you with a particular head gesture.

    For example, one day, the late big, Budgie bird was picking at he butt and she let out an angry, screeching sound of notable distress! We looked at her vent and her poop was caked dry and plugging up her butt. So I grabbed her and ran some warm water underneath and proceeded to pluck the dried poop from her butt, feather and all. Then in relief, she let out a long softer poop.

    After trying to dry her with paper towel and placing her back into the cage. She said “thank you” with a patricular head gesture. It was a bowing down of the head many times!

    So you see folks, animals do have consciousness. Any New Age guru telling the public that they have a different consciousness needs to have his (and her) heads checked. Sorry, but you fail to see and observe, too how beautiful the rainy weather and “bad luck” type of symbolic birds, such as ravens and such, can actually be to more “advanced souls”.

    Yes.

  • Not Her

    Speaking of deletion, if I were Phan, I’d be careful hiring that JenJen. She’s capable of lying and denying any ACCOUNTABILITY, a value of this company. She will use the usual phrases of “I didn’t know”, “I don’t know”, “I didn’t think of that”. For the price of that position, I expect someone smarter than that, someone who doesn’t wear acrylic nails to slow down the work process. But if the company requires a “duh” to fulfill their “diversity quota”, good luck.

    She actually reported my activities to Lucas, who had to be inconvenienced. The exclude tab wouldn’t work right for my purpose but for Lucas, he doesn’t care. Right there, she’s trying to take charge and going over my head, someone with auditing experience. She doesn’t know how to stop being, well, a twit.

    So Hoan and I were giggling behind the new guy and Phan hopefully within earshot. I said rather loudly but with my hands cupped over my mouth that: “Shhh! Don’t let anyone know that the both of us have ACCOUNTING backgrounds!” We laughed off our fate as temporary workers to a stupid data entry job of scheduling new orders.

    Yesterday, the head hunter wanted me to submit an authorization to snoop at my credit files. The Feds should be aware of their activities, by the way. Just for a stupid, low-paying job! My god! You guys are morons! Get with the program! You idiots think I’m Hispanic/Latino/whatever because of my last name! Idiots! I’m Asian!

  • 20101210-Trying Theme

    Can anyone say Emeritus? I’ve switched back to a tried-and-true WordPress.com theme known as in Kubrick. It’s prettier, too, with the Typekit fonts via the tweaking of my paid CSS upgrade. I think I”m using only two types of fonts with one font family borrowed from the body element of the Daydream theme by Jim Whimpey. I don’t know when I’ll make my peace with the appearance of my weblog. There are so many elements that I’d like added and deleted.
