oh dear. talk about your WORST timing EVER!
i think its being warrantied & parts will be here Thursday. & i think Ron is allowing Angel to be authorized to take care of things while im gone.

i just dunno how my struts can go bad & me not notice. im not a complete MORON.

i literally HEARD my shocks go (all 4) on my EM2 one night & it was like gun shots. then obviously the ride quality went to hell-in-a-handbasket from there. painfully obvious over speedbumps too.

very strange.

i will be staying in hella-south & slightly east Colorado. just barely 30 minutes from the New Mexico border.

i fly into Albuquerque, NM & will take the 3.5 hour drive on the meandering interstate system into CO.

p.s.- finally completed the packing ordeal. took about an hour & 30 minutes but wooo, im all done.

i just wonder WHAT i forgot?

it really could NOT be in better hands honestly.

some unknown bug (read: MULTIPLE) were found in my room & the other 2's room as well. 1 we're like okay sure... 1 in my room.... a bit odd.

over the course of the last HOUR 3 in my room & 4 in their room. we got switched to rooms next door.

im pissed cuz i want to SLEEP & its already 1220AM my time here & i have to be up & outta here WORKING @ the hospital 10/15 minutes away for 8AM my time. thankfully bosses wife personally knows some1 @ HP Corporate & is going to get a new cord for me heavily discounted she says. its overnighted. im here TOO long to be without any connection to the outside world. if it were just the weekend, i wouldn't even worry about it until i got home back to FL.

sooooo crappy y0!






p.s.- i will have NO laptop as of the end of this battery's charge. the first bug in my room flew RIGHT past my ear when i was sitting enjoying "The Office" freaked me the f*ck out & i dropped my laptop. it was charging & OF COURSE it landed charging cord down & f*cked up my jack on the charger. so im up a sh!t-creek ATM w/ no charger for the laptop. phone is too slow here w/o 3G & the wireless here is funny on the phone but perfect on the laptop. go figure.

/endsuperpissedrant

g'night all! i wish it were snowing cuz that runs ALL the bugs out of the area. it is currently 51 degrees outside here.

So no labtop for your whole trip?
=( I cant believe your having such bad luck dropping labtop and breaking your charger.


HOld on you said it flew past you? It must be those big flying ****roaches

NV should be 1 behind me

ridiculously bad first day... to say the least.

idk man, i sound like such a p*ssy & i know this... but Joey does NOT do bugs. never has, never really will.

i got freaked out the other day. idk how this giant ****roach got into my room and i saw this black thing moving near me and came out from under teh desk.

right when my mom came up i looked down and i freaked and jumped onto my chair and onto my bed lol. My mom helped by grab it lol.

um usually dont freak like that but it was so unexpected lol
but i think it could be a ****roach. why you staying in such a sucky place?

believe it or not this LaQuinta is FOUR MONTHS old yet... LOL!!
its super nice too! i took pics of the room & when i find the time i will post them up.

2 beds
microwave
fridge
plenty of lighting
roughly 30"-ish LG flat screen
free wireless high-speed/broadband internet (unsecured)
2 nightstands
big drawers in a dresser type thing (rem. im here 25 days!)
big full size mirror
closet
real nice larger than expected bathroom/shower
iron & ironing board
all the amenities & toiletries you can shake a stick @.

its very nice... its just my luck i guess.

i still cannot believe we almost DIED today in NM tho sh!t was insane!!

the short story is Lynn (bosses wife) was driving & i guess getting tired/tunnel-vision. she was going almost 105mph not realizing she's coming up on a car in our lane PRETTY quick, we mention to slow down (there is the left lane blocked ahead due to construction but no ppl around... cones slowly closing off the lane over a few thousand feet) she SPEEDS up to go past 2 other cars on the road PLUS a f*cking u-haul.

it seriously must have been an inch to either side of a barricade or the cars we passed. she freaked out after coming-to & realizing what happened. started to get dizzy from the adrenaline-rush i suppose & the car started to drift into the "rumble strips" on the shoulder

by this time Denise & i are like LYNNNNNNNNNNN WHAT THE F*CKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!?????

she slams on the brakes & comes to a stop. gets out & starts crying. needless to say, i drove the last 200 or so miles thru NM & 11 miles into CO to our hotel. it was a bit "quiet" the rest of the trip.

that's the kinda sh!t i cannot ever txt cuz of the signal fading in & out plus the Safari browser shutting off randomly over & over.



INSANE NO?
& ppl usually worry about AIR-travel. *sheesh!!*

p.s.- Jen is confirmed alive. she txt'd me about 3 miles into Colorado to say hi on a quick break @ work. :smile:
txting while driving thru mountain passes is a biiit tricky

dude, if you're ever in the mid-west you'll see what i mean. road as far as the eye can see & further. after a few hundred miles without breaks you tend to catch "tunnel-vision" & distorts your perception. sometimes we'd go for like half an hour without even SEEING another car on the road anywhere. lots of cops but seemed like they weren't overly concerned. weird.

*Pontiac G6 (my choice out of ALL the options)
*Chevy HHR
*Chrysler PT Cruiser
*Kia Rondo

we get out to the lot LOOKING for a Pontiac G6 sedan... NOT EVEN ONE (usually first choice we were later told)

Lynn picks the Kia Rondo (OMGGGGGG FAIL!!), i protest as does Denise.
we settle that the PT is terrible & HHR was lesser of all the evils. plenty of dings & scratches/chips to document. we do so & are leaving the lot when the lower dash trim under the steering wheel just all of a sudden drops to the floorboard onto Lynn's feet.

turn back around & loop around the airport back to the rental place. show it to the guy on-duty... he apologizes laughs a lil & offers to upgrade us to the full-size Impala free of charge (didnt mention any other full-size so we didn't push our luck much here). mind you, the sh!t-HHR BARELY fit everything in the trunk & the backseats as it is.

i picked out a 4-cyl (for gas purposes) red (i looked for white to be non-descript but no dice kids ) Chevy Impala (2008) w/ a spoiler... wrote down all the scratches & the chip in the windshield & we were on our way. ALL of our luggage fit in the trunk w/o issue.

little did i know the Impala on the highway was rattle-ly, vibration anywhere near 80mph, & drove like a sinking ship... the car could not take turns for beans. it was hilarious.

& my co-workers WONDERED why i asked if we coulda gone Enterprise or Hertz (they rent Hondas!!!!)

Hondas > *......... even in the rental car world.


man, this trip has been one adventurous-catastrophe after another. *yikes!!*

lol dealer trade type of drive from HELL much?!? hahahahhahahahah chevy fail. LOL!! i still think it will be 10x better by myself... no cigarettes, no breaks, no pullovers unless i absolutely feel i need to stretch or just chill for a bit. will be nice.

i JUST heard tonight that i will have that ENTIRE day off. *whew!* thank GOD cuz im gonna need it!

LOl you protest? what you say?

OMG!!! it dropped out of no where??? dam!!!

you would pick a red 4 cyl

it vibrated that much? that sucks dude reminds me of the versa. started to vibrated violently once i hit 70. and the steering wheel would shack alot and i had to counter steer constantly cause of the huge turning angle it had

LMFAO! FAIL ontop of FAIL i tell you.

yeah i think suspiciously of either the alignment and/or the tires. lol!
the car is TRASHED already on the exterior. thank GOD its NOT a Honda or else id feel pretty bad for the poor car.





seems as tho there will likely NEVER be a dull-moment in the duration of this trip for the 3 of us & then just me alone here. i want a guest...

poor Jackie & a Nissan Versa... FIT FTmfW! too bad like NO ONE rents those.

p.s.- forgot to mention but Lynn/Brian (boss) decided to WAIVE "coverage & roadside" on this car regardless of how long we're renting for & that i will be BY MYSELF 20 days.


wow! just wowwww amirite?!?

what i THINK Brian was saying on the conference call earlier was to get my accnt # to my WaMu/Chase accnt & deposit funds into it so i can just use my debit/credit card as usual keeping the receipts as proof of purchases.

idk homie, its all new to me.
as for Memphis to Colorado... dude, i wouldn't if i were you. that sh!t is gonna be faaar!!

to give you an idea its 1700 miles from Orlando to Colorado & 2700 miles from Vegas to Orlando. insanity!!

not even so much as a "bank" that ive seen. very weird. just those shady ass $3.00 fee + your bank's fee "ATM" like machines in the ghetto gas stations.

we tried to shove the jack back into the cord to make the metal on metal connection.. no dice.

goodnight Jen & Jackie & any/all lurkers within the next couple of minutes. ill try to keep tabs on the 8th w/ the iPhone from time to time but its not nearly as easy or reliable as a desktop or laptop. Friday will be the first REAL day of work @ the hospital. we'll see how that all goes i guess in a few short hours.

byeeeeeeee!!

for lunch today w/ the co-workers & the girl (Nicole) who is the supervisor of the business office today. it was pretty good & of course, PERFECT signal out there w/ the EDGE network outside & free WiFi inside. food was on-par (pun intended) & wow, Nicole is a super-cutie.

found out some things today tho:
*very attractive in a "girl next door" sorta way; she does not look even REMOTELY close but she's 32
*married, 2 girls (cute lil girls too... saw them trick or treating @ the hospital lobby on our way out this evening)
*originally from right here in Trinidad, CO, moved to North Las Vegas for three years but is now back out in the mountains about to close on a house in a week outside of the "town" of Trinidad.
*LOOOOOOOOVES rock music & attended many concerts w/ her oldest daughter while living in Vegas. (especially Rise Against, Three Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin, Disturbed, Metallica, Bullet for my Valentine... the ones she mentioned)
*barely over 5' tall
*brown hair & big brown eyes

the BAD news is... after going out to lunch this afternoon thanks to Lynn & Denise; she is a "closet smoker"
didn't do it while pregnant, doesn't do it at all @ work or carry anything around, only in the comfort of her home. unfortunately having 2 other smokers around, she was urged to "have one" and that is exactly how i found out... the hard way

suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper unattractive to me. nice girl but definitely not interested now.

im picky when it comes to your healthy or unhealthy habits. its just how i roll i guess.

Hold on all of those things were describing Nicole right?

Joey lol dont be so picky. At least be her friend, maybe she will introduce somoene to you or soemthing.


And man I'm lame staying home on Holloween. There are tons of parties but I'm just not in the party mood these days. Guess cause my party buddies all left me =( And went to Orlando.


Oh Joey my friend that is there for college was telling me how Orlando law on modding your car is pretty strict. They give ppl tickets for having too loud of a car. Apparently my friend has been pulled over a few time for hi bike already. But he told them he doesnt live there so cant apply tto him. So they let him go.

the reason Denise prolly WONT be leaving is cuz things arent going smoothly & they will likely assume/know that im not 100% confident in being here alone to work + training the perm. FHR employee that lives here & will work @ the hospital M-F.

not to mention co-workers = a big time no-no. i was just sharing b/c i thought it was a small-world w/ all the common interests we shared & LOL @ her being from North LV for that matter. hahahhahahaa

she also said she doesn't do it in front of her kids. which was nice and considerate of her if she MUST feel she needs to smoke.

i will be nothing but nice to her no doubt. she's a mad cool chick & has a great personality... she's definitely worth looking @ that's for sure. lol but that's where it ends.

the best coverage in this area is with Alltell Wireless & Verizon Wireless. AT&T hasn't picked up the slack around here as of yet i am told. booo!!

ugh, does ANYONE around here NOT smoke but me?!??
the thing to do in this part of CO im noticing: smoke, drive a truck or other 4x4 vehicle, NEVER EVER EVER wash it (LOL!!), & i dont see too much in the way of TURN SIGNALS either. hardly ANY cops on a good point tho.

but yeah Steve, i wish i were at LEAST in Colorado Springs... cuz then i could trek north a bit to see this beautiful Mt. Evans you speak of. i googled it & its 3.5 hrs north me.

the so-called mountains around this part of CO are merely foothills of the BASE of the Rockies it seems to me. elevation is a mere 5,000ft on a sign i saw. 5000ish i should say... i dont recall exact.

Mt. Evans is like 14,000ish or so IIRC. i googled it & there a scenic mountain pass paved road that goes like 28 miles & climbs some ridiculous elevation in such a short period of time. just like you said the HIGHEST "paved road" in all of the United States. that's pretty f*cking cool if you ask me!!!

i had to give the Compaq charger back to Denise (she needed it) & the HP hookup Lynn has is on vacation for a month outside of the U.S.

anywho, just watchin' Carson Daly Last Call (why you ask?? i have no idea). he looks like a giant douchebag dressed like grapes for Halloween. lol fail.

thanks for the comment Steve... im sorta hoping for that as well. this Colorado stuff isn't as easy as "they" made it out to be when i was considered first for the job. figures... there's regular Colorado Medicaid, Commercial Insurance if they have it, setup a payment plan with the patient for balance after insurance has paid, & a 3rd program for assistance here locally called Colorado Indigent Care Program & so far, its maaaaaad confusing.

so im hoping Saturday (sooo ga_y to have to work on a Saturday cuz normally its business hours M-F) i learn a lot more & start to get comfortable using the program called HMS to work these accounts that keep piling up each day that "Kevin" is still around but doing nothing of any consequence so far as work is concerned. anything but really. waste of breath @ this point.

so sleepy. yuck!!

its 2 hours north of here & i already know there is signal & 3G up there. yayyy!!!
