I say "Fuck" a lot

We had the Chinamen over for poker a couple times over the weekend. We got a nice game together on Friday…7 people winner takes all. FunkyB came down again for the weekend, Ted/Edr0 and Manny & Quincy who work at the Chinese restaurant. I like Manny. He’s so funny, he helps move the game along, and his nickname for Edr0 is “Fatboy” (that’s always a plus). Had to frown on the Chinese speak at the table though. Gambling and speaking in foreign languages is a tad shady. Ed won so we got another game together on Sunday and worked in 2 games. FunkyB took the 1st one and Mau the 2nd.

The weekend was also filled with quite a few explosives, grill-outs, some bowling with Keith & Mary Jo, cornhole and making FunkyB ride a bike.

I called accounts payable for my work and they had nothing pending for me. Yeah, I know…wtf? This pay is for work I did in April for fuck’s sake. The girl was nice though and put me through to actually speak to the guy in charge of my invoices since I didn’t have his number. He gave me a bunch of gobbly-goo yadda yaddas and said I would definitely get paid on the 15th. I will believe it when I see it…so far it’s all been lies. Again, he apologized profusely but like I said to FunkyB, he can “stuff his sorrys in a sack”. They really don’t mean much after 2 months of them and none being attached to a fucking check. If he’d like to go ahead and deliver the apologies to my landlord, the electric company, the phone company, my kid wearing shorts 2 sizes too small, my husband with hair begging to be cut and my dog, well, just because…then I might be more appreciative of them. Right now I feel like slave labor and it just pisses me off. He also offered for me to take on a one time project to “make up for it”. More work that I won’t be paid for? No, no tanks. After I got off the phone, Skylar says “I don’t think I like your boss mommy”. I said “You know what? I don’t think I do either”.
