RANT ABOUT BUILDING MAINTENANCE

So they are a bit lax on doing things here unless there is water running out into the freaking hall under your door. This is a footprint by the garbage shoot.

Well they replaced something in there and put in a new access door in there many months ago. It took 2 months for them to get the access in and pain the wall. BUT they never cleaned up the drywall dust. NEVER. It's been like 6 months or more.

The other day they where fixing the place over top of mine as they had well - water running out into the hall under the door (told you). Well there was water running down my wall in the bathroom and out of my medicine cabinet. I DID call this in right away and it was pouring out.

Well 30 minutes later I'm wondering why not one person has shown up and there is still all kinds of water coming down the wall. An hour and a half in it had stopped running and I started the process of cleaning up the wall, the floor, the sink and the cabinet. Still no one had shown up.

The next day and the day after that I was left wondering what the crap does it take to get them to show up? No one ever did.

Now I'm left with a strong musty smell in the wall as there is no place for the moisture to go and it's just sitting in there, more than likely soaked into the drywall and the wood.

See mold is common in a really old building like this when something like this happens, so I'm not impressed and just hope no mold starts to bleed threw the wall. I also don't need black mold spores coming out into my face every time I open the medicine cabinet to shave or brush my teeth.

If I ever do see the fix-it guy around I'm going to complain about the musty smell in there and that no one showed up. I mean they where IN THE BUILDING that day, why not stop in to give it a look?

I know they are on a budget and all with this place as it's subsidized, but DANG this might not be safe. I love living here, it's the only quiet place I've ever lived after moving out of my folks place - but this not showing up thing and not getting things done is a bother. After all, how long does it take to vacuum up the dust in the garbage shoot room? Got to say every job I had before being too disabled to work I did the entire job, not just part of it. Sigh.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

Matilde Vicenzi Cookies Are Great

Image
Was sent these by a good friend for a birthday gift. They are really very good. Quite possibly the best cookies I've had in years. I tried them all, and I like the white one you see in the bottom picture, as it had a lemon taste to it. Some had a bit of liquid chocolate in them and where very good as well. Like normal, the ones with the bit of jam in them where a bit too sticky and chewie. But I seriously enjoyed all of them. These are great. I'm going to look them up on Amazon and if they are not too much money, I'm getting more for Christmas. OK just looked it up and NOPE, it's $28 a can. They are very good, but that is a bit out of my price range. But the usual Christmas Danish Butter Cookies are also kind of a lot of money now as well. They are also a bit moist, and not super dry like usual. Also not powdery like a lot of them do. I'd give these an 8/10 and would recommend highly.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

Image
 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.

10 Questions Answered

1. How many times have you seen the time as exactly 8:18 am/pm in your life? Almost never. If I did I did not take note of it. 11:11 I always remember as well as 3:33. The middle of the night where all the horror movies have things happen is said to be 3:15am - you have no idea how many times I’ve woken up at 3:15am and looked at my phone. 2. What have you lived long enough to see? The list is rather long, but I’ll try to keep it short. Computers went from filling a room bigger than my apartment, to fitting in our pockets. When I worked in data entry, the entire building was using a 1GB drive that was the size of a stove. Now my 512GB micro SD card is smaller than a fingernail. Medical treatments like Stem Cells are not giving life back to people who would have died when I was younger. Medication I’m on did not exist 15 years ago, and it’s keeping me alive. All manner of medical wonders. Personal space travel. This was fiction when I was young, and now it’s happening. Then there is uns
