Waiting for a postal delivery in Las Vegas

Fidál (Grace), 8 Asmá’ (Names), 170 BE – Tuesday, August 27, 2013 about 2:16 PM Pacific Daylight Time

It is the last Tuesday in August and I am waiting for the mail carrier to arrive. I have not seen the U.S. Postal Service truck drive past. I have not heard letter slot in the front door. All right, strike that! I just heard the carrier drop something through the slot. Perhaps the letter I am waiting for has arrived. Perhaps I will have to wait another day or two for it to come.

I should get up and go into the entrance hall to pick up the mail. I know that just sitting in front of the computer typing this entry is not going to get the mail that is waiting for me. I eventually I have to pick it up to see if I received a bill, junk mail, or something important. While I am up, I should get a glass of ice water and check the thermostat.

It sounds as if; I am attempting to find something to do beside pick up the mail. I want to pick the mail up, so that I know if the letter came. The problem is that I do not want to know if the letter did not come. I know that does not make sense; however, that is how I feel right now. I may as well check to see if the letter came. I will post this and then check the hall for the mail.

A Long and Weary Day in Las Vegas

Fiḍál (Grace), 13 Kamál (Perfection), 170 BE - Tuesday, August 13, 2013 about Sunset Pacific Daylight Time

It's been a long and weary, or perhaps I should say worry, day. I'm tired. I should log off, say some prayers, and go to sleep. I plan to spend at least two hours on hold tomorrow attempting to get some help with my power bill. I don't know if I will get help. I don't know if I will do anything except listen to hold music, but I'll try.

I suppose I could go into another rant about all the difficulty I've had, attempting to get assistance. I doubt that another rant would help. It won't help find money for the bill and it will just make me more depressed. I think I will attempt to write a blog entry or two while I'm on hold tomorrow. I don't know what subject I'll write about, but I will attempt to write a blog entry.  I don't have the patience to wait on hold unless I have something else to do besides listen to the silly music.
