Boo. Apparently it's raining in L.A., but not where I live
Oh look, the blindfold replacement opened for business today! I don't know if I remember how to do this. :D

The Beggar's Banquet: Round Opens August 2nd
(Why do I feel my prompts are the most obvious in the world? I have kink needs, people!)
We started playing with our new captioning software at work last week for about an hour a day. OMG, it sucks so bad. Lots of bugs, can't do half the stuff our old (old!) software does. So frustrating. And now my boss wants me to QC and feedback a new guy's work on it. Hello, I still have to push about five different buttons before I find the one that does what I want it to do! Now add someone watching me who I'm supposed to teach?! WTF, talk about setting someone up to fail...
So combined with the above, my car and condo insurance company is giving me the runaround. How can they raise my rates 20% when I haven't changed a single thing on my policies? Farggin' moneygrubbers. Anyone have a good insurance company they'd recommend?
And then to top it all off, my neighbors disconnected the outdoor safety light between our two condos and then stopped the property management company from fixing it. Now I'm going to have to get the HOA involved. Farggin' bastiges.
Last week felt like one battle after another.
In good news, I've found a goodreads group I really like. They have nice challenges and are really easy-going and friendly. Now if I can just get them to transplant to all the genres I like to read. :D Also I bought this as a cheer-me-up present. Hope it's as pretty as it seems. Otherwise not much is going on with me. I"m still reading and lurking, but don't have much to say.
