Dear New Jersey Vendor

Okay, asshole, I've sent your 'free' shit back to you (at cost to my own company, since you don't have a contact number I can call and harass you about your own account number for the various couriers) about six times with a professionally polite note attached each time telling you that we cannot accept samples for doctors here at the hospital. I'm about sick of seeing your name on the return address.

I gave the stuff to Med Staff this time, who will have a talk with the addressed physicians (and quite likely, you).

If I see one more thing from your address on my dock, I'm showing up in Hainsport, and shoving whatever it is up your dumb ass after I beat you to death with it. Got that, 'cousin' of mine? (his name is Campbell as well)

NO love, and lots of violence.

Me.

This could be morbid, but...

When Shiimi died four years ago, we had her cremated.

When Shiea died two years ago, I did the same (by then, it was really bad between ex and I, Dad was the one to loan me the money, and she never liked Shiea anywhere near as much as she liked Shiimi. Probably because Shiea was never one to put up with bullshit or people that lived in it).

Dad has already said it was okay to send the ashes to him so that he could spread them out in the back yard, next to the lake that comes up to the end of his property. We just haven't managed to get them there yet. I'm going to have Dad send the boxes back to me afterward.

I am wondering what to do with the boxes though. Originally, I thought to make them into memory boxes, but I have few pictures of either of them, and none of their original belongings (they either got 'lost' or thrown out *cough* 'by accident' when I still lived there). That, and I'm done mourning for them and just want to remember them. The few pictures I have are on a photo disk, and I can pull the pictures up on that whenever I want just fine.

That, and odd as it sounds, it seems a waste to just have two very nice cedar boxes laying around with very little to them but the name plaques on the lids.

So I'm thinking to make them storage. Maybe for scented oils or incense I like.

Or even art pens and inks--Shiimi always liked sitting on the table when I worked, and Shiea always liked being curled up at my feet. Would it be appropriate then to use their holding boxes for that?

What do you guys think? Or is that whole concept just too weird?

Oh. My. God...

I just had a Geek-gasm watching a trailer for FF13.

You all who care have probably already seen this, but I just found it tonight.

The CGI and the battle screens are fucking seamless!

If the game itself is even half as good as the graphics, I'm going to be GLUED to my PS3 when it becomes available.

OMG. The US release date cannot come soon enough.
