Distracted at Two

It's past 2 o'clock in the afternoon and it's so hot here. I can't help but be distracted from transcribing the last podcast that I've been assigned to do this week -- it's due on Saturday. I guess there's no holiday for us WAH folks.

My goal is to complete ten minutes of audio before 3 o'clock.That's 45 minutes from now. I'm currently at 00:09:58 so I figured that a short detour here would be okay.

I had a good breakfast today. I gobbled it all up so quickly that I forgot to take a picture of it. I had sweet sausage, fried egg, garlic-fried rice, OJ, coffee and water. The water got warm very quickly so I had to pop the bottle back in the fridge again. Did I mention that it was hot here?

We buy these three-in-one coffee packs where all you got to do is add hot water and stir. Of course, it had to have artificial sweeteners or it had to be "sugar-free", as we call them. When you try sugar-free coffee, you wouldn't want to go back to granulated sugar. I find that drinking coffee with the latter almost hurts my throat. Did I mention that I didn't like sweets?

All right then. I have to reach that little 3 o'clock goal of mine or else I'll throw my schedule off. I really hate to rush things.

Cold, Windy, Audacity, Congee

Lovely weather now. It's cold - not too cold that I have to bundle up - it's nice. It's windy outside too. Mosquitoes in my room are not afraid. It used to be that when you wave a hand over one that's "dining" on you, it would fly away. Now, when I feel an itch on my leg and put a hand over it ever so calmly, I squash the bug. Gross. Here was my dinner yesterday, chicken congee or arroz caldo . Suitable dish during cold weather 'cause it's filling and the spiciness from the ginger hits the spot.

Paymaya duplicate account 2018 [fixed]

How to fix a Paymaya Duplicate Account issue? Do not waste your time sending an email to support@paymaya.com or messaging PaymayaCares on FB because you will only get a canned response (and a headache). YOU NEED TO TALK TO A HUMAN BEING... If you do not have a landline but you do have a Smart number, call *788 directly. This is free. That's what I did. I spoke with a rep and she fixed it right away, mabilis lang. She said the BSP (Bangko Sentral) is strict and will only allow 1 upgraded account per user. Any attempts to upgrade a different number will flag the new account and put you in this duplicate account mess and you won't be able to add money to this new number anymore. (The original account will not be affected though.) Because they cannot cancel the submitted upgrade request on the new number (it doesn't work that way daw), I had to choose which number I want to keep-- If I choose to keep the old upgraded number, they will delete the duplicate account and I

GlobeAtHome no internet [fixed]

Globe at Home: "Connected without internet" ================ 11/4/2023 Saturday ================ 12 Noon: We lost our wifi today. After troubleshooting* a few times -- still no "internet" light on the modem; it is off while all other lights are green. *Power off modem for 30 seconds and wait for it to boot up. ~2:45pm: I called Globe's customer service 211 . It's free to call with a Globe #. Automated recording for broadband services - give your customer account # and wait for a human to answer. I didn't wait too long -- The rep told me that since there's no advisory for my area, to keep troubleshooting because they might be able to fix it on their end later today, but she still put me down for a tech "home visit" for tomorrow. I received my report reference # via text message too.  She said I will also give that ref # if I want to request for a "bill adjustment" later. Modem status 4pm: I logged into the modem, the da
