"I'm Tired." It's hard to believe that this song still makes me chuckle in the decades after "Blazing Saddles" was released. It's tame enough that it could be played on broadcast TV. Yet, the best gags are adult in nature.

If I weren't working a full time job, I'd be able to go to sleep late at night, and wake up when I feel rested. This is not the case. I have to be in at 8:00 am, and then make it look like I'm fully conscious until I leave for the day. Today was a little worse than usual. I had an interrupted sleep the night before, and I was finding it harder than usual to stay reasonably conscious.
When the day ended, I had to rush home to deal with a problem with my cable bill/payment, and rushed home to change before going to the cable store. And even then, I couldn't get the problem resolved.... I may have made things worse by issuing a second payment on the account to bring it somewhat current, as the fellow at the store gave me an issue about this second payment.
Payments:
09/20 - $275 (not processed by cable)
10/04 - $300 (not processed by cable - I wasn't sure of exact amount and wanted to overpay.)
10/07 - $275 (processed by cable, not yet recorded at the bank.)
The first two payments were issued from my main bank's portal. The third was made from the cable company portal, drawn on a second bank.
So now, I have to bring records from the 2 banks, plus a screen print from the cable company's site to the cable store to see what can be done. This is going to be a big pain in the ass for me tomorrow, as I have to go to Mavis for car service, to a vaccination center for a Covid booster shot, and then to the cable store. And after all of this, I go to see MWL!

Why do I mention MWL right now? Tonight, we were far from the same wave length when I wanted to talk about this problem. She wasn't trying to over analyze the problem as TCL does. But she was being fatalistic in ways that bother me. (I'm having a hard time trying to describe her "ethnic" style of communication, but it's a style that bothered me with Ex-GF-M.) When I see her, I'll have to apologize for being a little testy when talking with her, as I was not in the best of moods....
