At work today I actually got to help wrap a truck! That’s what happens when there’s nothing else to do I suppose. It was fun, I’d like to do it again when we have time to finish the thing. It was mildly exciting, and there’s something very theraputic about being able to focus on little minute things without having to deal with anything else. I’ll post a pic when I get one of the finished truck.
In a recent “i’m sick of trying to run multiple copies of thunderbird on multiple computers and make it all work great with the same email accounts” move, I’ve decided to let google manage all the email for cruzweb.net. All I have to say is that I can’t believe I didn’t do this earlier. It’s so nice having all of my email in 1 place. Not to mention google has the best spam filters on the block, so no more viagra, cialis, or penis enlargement ads coming to my email (hopefully, I sure never got them with gmail before).
It was surprisingly easy to set up, and to anyone who likes gmail, I would really suggest signing up. You can do so here. Thus far, it’s becoming a very elegant solution to our the how to handle email everywhere problem. Plus 3 gigs of space for email for free is nothing to sneeze at. Check it out
Lastly, the Lilly Allen gig at the majestic has been cancelled, thanks to ticketmaster for informing me. This does not please me one bit. Not postponed, but cancelled. So I have 2 useless tickets on my hand for a show that’s not going to happen. Then on top of that, they’re keeping my $4.85 processing fee. Bastards and thieves they are at ticketmaster. This is what they sent me:
“Hello, this is Ticketmaster Customer Service with an important alert for your upcoming event. Lily Allen, scheduled at Majestic Theatre on May 27, 2007, at 8:00 PM, has been cancelled.
Your credit card will automatically be credited the ticket price and convenience charges, and should post to your account within 7 to 10 business days. Please note, the $4.85 per order processing fee and any ticketFast or UPS delivery charges are non-refundable. “
In better news, they also sent me an email saying that the tickets for the ICP/Twiztid show were printed. So at least I still have that to look forward to. But with Lilly Allen out of the picture, i’ll have to find something else to go to. Not like something could have replaced that. Ooh well, serves me and Josh right for plotting to kidnap her at the show and keep her for ourselves.
