So yesterday's isn't all alone

Just a little something to bring my blog total up to two for the year. I don't really have much to say, as today is bright and cold, at least right now the sun is shining but I don't think the temp is above freezing.

As of yet, I don't have any resolutions or plans for the New Year, except stay with my contract job until it ends, currently that date is April First, which my manager thought was a fun day to make it after all the other false end dates I have experienced. Since no one knows what March will hold, I am not making plans for afterwards, as if the offer is there to continue a bit longer, I don't see a reason not to, though something could grab my attention prior, and make that date seem an attractive end point--too much can happen between now and then. Planning is something that should be done, but to do it at the cost of not seeing other opportunities is also a bad idea.

I keep watching my little wireless icon move up and down, as it seems my signal is inconsistent, though I am in my living room with the modem maybe fifteen feet away on the other side of the wall. So I don't lose this, I am going to go ahead and publish, perhaps I will have a motivated streak later and add another post today, though better would be to think of something interesting to write tomorrow.

Almost the new year

Honestly, I am not sure if this will get a bit more play now, but I deactivated my rather pointless Facebook account. It seems I have been as unable to keep that timely as my voicemail messages. If you ever happen to call and leave a voicemail for me, it will be better for me if I recognize your phone number, as the messages, unless I am job hunting, don't actually get a hearing. I have been told my voicemail is full, and my guess it is from election season, but perhaps as a New Year's gift to those who want to leave messages, which includes my insurance agent, as he couldn't when quoting auto insurance, I will go in and delete everything -- most likely unheard, as if memory serves, "7" is the magic number. I did actually think about disabling voicemail, but when I did chat with my phone service about voicemail, they gave me three more service I won't use and reduced my bill in the bargain, so it seemed silly to try and get them to remove voicemail and then charge me more for the privilege. Now I have a full range of useless stuff on my phone, but I pay less, which I guess makes it progress.
