hOI!!!!!
I thought I would share what has been keeping me away from sharing and spending time with everyone. (Doing this makes me feel better as, currently, I am up to my beak in stuff and want to let everyone know that, upon more resolution, I am going to be commenting, replying, and posting once again.)
FALLOUT OF A BAD WEEKEND:
FRIDAY:
1: Mrs. O’ducky’s car is smashed in the parking lot while she was inside, with me, getting her COVID-19 booster.
2: I start feeling dizzy with cold sweats as a result of getting my COVID-19 booster the day before.
3: Insurance company fails to assist Mrs. O’Ducky, which results in no rental car.
4: Was called about scheduling a job interview while my phone was being used to take photos of the damage to Mrs. O’Ducky’s parked car.
SATURDAY:
1: Still feeling dizzy with cold sweats.
2: Insurance company still will not assist Mrs. O’ducky with moving the process along for getting her vehicle repaired while also giving no help for a rental car.
3: rental car company, under ‘Tribble’ management, avoids Mrs. O’Ducky’s ‘emergency distress signals’ and leaves us stranded with no ‘shuttle craft’ to go beyond our current location.
4: Plumbing starts to back up.
SUNDAY:
1: Still dizzy and cold sweaty. However getting better through making time for additional rest.
2: Nothing doable with insurance nor rental car as, well, it’s Sunday!
3: Plumbing backs up to the point that, even with plunging not doing the trick. Utilized drain cleaning solutions to attempt repair.
Monday
1: Mrs. O’Ducky FINALLY gets someone to get her auto insurance claim underway!
2: The ‘Tribble’ states they will rendezvous at our current location to provide a shuttle craft. This is said while insurance person is on the line. However the ‘Tribble’ uses incorrect ‘hailing frequency’ and reaches out to her home ‘solar system’ rather than the provided ‘frequency’ / ‘coordinates’.
3: Mrs. O’ducky was beamed up by next door neighbor’s ‘starship’ and taken to the rental car ‘space station’. Here they offered no aid, informed her of how they used an incorrect ‘hailing frequency’, and forced Mrs. O’ducky to return back without a ‘shuttle craft’.
4: Plumbing issue reaches point where toilet cannot be flushed without backup.
5: While out on a walk with my Seeing Eye Dog, I was sent a ‘text’ about my interest and availability for a follow-up interview. (Not really safe to do texting while operating a Seeing Eye Dog on busy city sidewalks.). When I returned home, one hour after getting the text, I responded and, as of now, still am waiting for a reply. (No local phone number was used with the text. It was one of those odd numeric codes that one typically gets when they receive an automatic message from a utility company, or a radio contest.).
6: While at pharmacy with Seeing Eye Dog, I am contacted by the employer who I left voicemails for that I missed as a result of photos being taken of Friday’s car accident. They added new job criteria I could not meet and, while crouched in some spot in the middle of the pharmacy, I completed an unsuccessful phone interview before returning to finish the transaction I was making at the counter
TODAY:
1: Plumber arrives and, along with finding certain items that Peep’s visiting hens should not ever be flushed down a toilet clogging the line, discovers a larger problem that requires $6,600 to repair.
2: ‘Tribbles’ stated they will be hailing Mrs. O’Ducky to acquire a rental car…
3: Informed the Unemployment Claim Appeal that I had made would, given ‘by-the-book’ rules, would not be successful. However I will be eligible on January 2nd as, at this time, the ‘Base Year’ will finally show enough ‘Credit Weeks’ to validate my UC Claim. (I was ‘financially’ eligible. However you need to have worked 18 weeks during the ‘Base Year’ and, given how the window for a ‘Base Year’ is calculated, I will FINALLY be eligible in Q1 2022.).
And, well, that’s about it. Thankfully, with today’s events, I feel tomorrow will start me on a track to relax and not feel so much like a ‘Mr. Nuthatch’.
Thanks for all your patience. I look forward to being more actively involved with you all more sooner than later.
Your Pal,

Hopefully there will be no further set-backs *hugs*
Hopefully everything goes smoother.
I might want to do a video titled "The System Is Designed to Make You Poor". There would be a segment about how college is a bad investment for many people.
I'm pretty sure (or at least I try to believe) that dices will be in our favor pretty soon Yosh. Just keep hugging your soft plushies and everything will be okay. *hugs strong*
