Grey clouds loom

Taken from here.

When i signed on to NetSpace, we made 2 appointments for a Telstra guy to come and twiddle with the phone line box and an Optus guy to come down today to come into my house and test the socket.

Yesterday, I manned the phone and waited for the Telstra guy to call but no one did and thus I assumed he already twiddled with the phone box.

Today, i skipped a lecture and accidently missed a project meeting becoz i had to stay home and wait for the optus guy to come. The appointment was 8-12pm.

12.30 i called netspace and 'complained' about no one coming and they informed me [and he was pretty upset with telstra] that they came yesterday but couldn't get access to the box and prob just left. They were supposed to call me but no one did and thus, they didn't do the job. Which means the optus guy wouldn't even show today and thus had to reschedule another 2 appointments for me. That's not it, due to the easter holiday, the next available slot is 9th apr friday... which is a week and a half away. then the optus guy will have to come in on a saturday or a monday to get the stuff done.

And i'm like wth lah... of course i didn't whine to him about it over the phone coz it's not his fault but the Telstra guy's fault for not calling me to get access to the phone box... so he jotted down a note saying that they MUST call me when they are coming and that they'll re compensate me for the trouble caused. I assured him i do not blame netspace since it's not their fault and was very appreciative of the things they are doing for me coz he said he'll get my first month's bill to be waivered off which means i get my first month free... that's like $70 so i'm not complaining...

but i'm jus bummed out that becoz of this, i also missed a lecture AND i totally forgot i had a project meeting today. when my project manager called, i realized i was supposed to be in school. sent him a long sms explaining and apologizing... but then he called a bit later on and said he never got the message. so i apologized and explained over the phone [he sounded disappointed... i would be too] and said that we'll meet on facebook to chat thru the meeting. however, he hasn't popped online for facebook yet so i'm like just sitting here missing the meeting.

And i was going to cook lunch for laura but she hasn't woken up yet nor came online. and i dun have her aussie number so i can't contact her... which means i'm jus sitting here waiting for her to wake up so i can cook lunch. as per yesterday's lunch events, i'm a bit wary of cooking early and waiting for her. She jus came online and said she'll be ready by 2. that's an hour's time. sigh... late lunch i suppose.

Davin jus reminded me of my meeting tonite which i forgot AGAIN... what's wrong with me today?

i'm so bummed out... sigh...
