A Year Ago Today...

1 Comments


I found out I was pregnant with Vanessa! And While I was not the happiest person upon finding out I was pregnant and sometimes I still get really frustrated with her because of her endless crying, I wouldnt change it because she is so damn cute. A complete spitting image of her sister.

So on this day, I am happy to see the positive on that test listed above and happy to see the sweet happy 5 month old in her swing!

Silence is Futal

So, I have been absent as you may have (or have not) noticed.

I have been quiet busy adjusting to thew new job and the hours I am working and dealing with a (still) very fussy baby.

And to top things off, I have found out something that has quiet un-nerved me.

Like Brittney over at Mommywood, I dont publicly advertise my blog to many people that I know because this is MY spot to clear my head about things going on in my life. If people read it fine, if not, Im not too worried. But anyways, I bitch about things and people that just bother me. And like Brittney, someone whom I have talked about on my blog (not in a good way either) has found my blog. And mind you I dont talk to this person AT ALL, infact I avoid it at all costs because really I have no reason to talk to said person. Well, this person is evidently nosey enough to have found my sanctuary and I have hurt their feelings I suppose. But, in my case, I honestly dont give a crap if I hurt anyones feelings. Because these are MY thoughts and MY feelings. And this is what happens when you put your feelings on the internet for the world to see.

I had contemplated on just throwing in the towel and deleting this because I dont like nosey people and I definitely dont like this person. But instead I am going to say this:

This is MY blog! My Life. MY THOUGHTS. YOU where the one that felt the need (and obviously had too much time on your hands) to come search for me and what I do on the internet to find this and then read everything I have written. If you dont want to know what I have to say about you or anything else...there is a pretty red x in the upper right hand of your screen that you can click and move on! You go looking for trouble you are going to find it. I have all the rights in the world to say what I feel about you, anything or anyone else for that matter. This is my one place to clear my head and vent about things that are bothering me...you dont like it, too bad.

So do me a favor, stop being nosey! If you wanna read it, fine more power too you...but do me a favor and leave my boyfriend out of it...you dont need to go bitching to him or anyone else about what I say, if you have a problem, you can bring it to me!

This whole Work Thing...

0 Comments
So, A few weeks ago I started my new job working for CapTel, INC and I was quite intimidated at the whole process. I mean, I like the meaning and what we provide, but I was just damn scared!

What CapTel does is provide captions from telephone conversations via a captioning telephone. These special telephones have screens on them that provide the captions of the person whom the hard of hearing person is talking to.

Where do I come in? I am the "middle man" so to speak. I repeat everything the person who DOES NOT have the phone says into my microphone, which goes to the computer and then pops up on their screen. Easy you say? Hardly the case...

This program that recognizes your voice, is very touchy! While it understands damn near everything you say, sometimes it doesnt work quite as well as you want it too!

So 3 weeks of training for all of this is hard work! I have to be able to revoice 135 wpm with 2% error! PRESSURE!

Good news though, I can revoice 190wpm with 1.5% error! Yeah, im that damn good...

So I rocked my training classes! I passed all my monitors too! Saturday was my first day on the actual call floor by myself no longer considered being a trainee...

Again, the PRESSURE! I was messing up so bad! I felt bad for the people on the other end of the telephone! :(

Its weird listening in to peoples conversations. Granted, I only hear 1 side of the conversation, its still crazy!

But all in all, I am liking my job! And I am totally loving the purpose behind it!

Man Oh Man!

I have been so flippin busy with this new job crap that by the time I get home, I cant even stand up straight! Between work, coming home and doing all the stuff I do at home, Im exhausted and barely have time to pee!

Shitty, I know!

But this job, holy crow! I cant say what is said because I am bound by some crazy FCC Confidentiality agreement. But OMG to the things people will talk about on the phone! And I wonder if some of these people would say this crap knowing I am in the middle of their conversation! HAHA

And not only with all this stuff, but Vanessa is back to her normal crybaby self! :/ I just dont know what the deal is with her crying all the time, but I sure am ready for it to all be over..

What has everyone else been up to?
