Howdy

I got an email about the forum and it made me realize it's been so long since I've been here. My year has been so incredibly busy I barely have time to do anything! I told my boss yesterday, I don't think I've had a weekend to myself since January!

So just saying hey and that I'm still alive

 

Doing the same stuff as before, working for a (different) crazy eye doctor! haha

Right now, I'm so mad at amazon. I ordered a new phone battery and it was an add on item, so I couldn't just purchase the battery I had to order $35 worth of stuff, while I could use the stuff, I didn't exactly need it but whatever, I needed the battery. So, I waited for more than a week and just got my order and they sent me the wrong battery!! My current battery is broken/swollen and only really last for a 1/2 hour without needing to be charged, so I really needed this new battery. Now I have to wait to hear back what amazon is going to do.

Other than the forum, what's new around here or with you?

 

Thanks, Kes.. It has been ages, hasn't it?

 

You people make me feel young again!
But I can still say: "Welcome back dyamond."
BTW You should get a new pair of shoes to go with the new Forums.

 

Thanks! haha and I agree.. new shoes for a new forum

Thanks I hope someone will too! haha

 

Welcome back dyamond!

 

Dyamond! Woo-Hoo!! Welcome back . . . everyone has been wondering and not a little worried about not seeing you around. I guess I'll stop calling the NSA and demanding they tell us if you are ok. They were getting a little litigious . . .

 

Oh no!
Spad, is that you on the phone?
I'll have to change my avatar... again!

 

Great to see you are OK!

 

Welcome back! Glad to hear things are going fairly well, and I hope Amazon sorts out the battery thing soonest!

 

Howdy stranger!

Glad to hear you're doing well, and I just picked up this phone from Amazon a while back:

http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-ZenFone2...qid=1448541913&sr=1-2&keywords=zenfone+2+16gb

My old Galaxy SIII mini just couldn't get along anymore, and the price point for the hardware was just too good to pass on.

 

Thanks guys!!


Update on amazon - So they had me re-order (which meant I had to spend another$25) and guess what?? Amazon sent me the same wrong battery again! I don't even know what to do.

 

Woah, look who it is. Haha.Glad to hear you're doing good Dy.

 

It's for my phone. About a month ago, it fell out of my back pocket (and I never put my phone in my back pocket!) and into the toilet (the water was clean! lol)
Despite the fact that water actually poured out of my phone, it still works perfectly. Except now my battery only lasts about 15 mins of solid use before it dies. Today for example, I took 3 pictures and sent/received about 15 texts before it died. Amazon is the only place where I can seem to get this battery because it's a new (they started in 2009) phone manufacturer.

I still really love my phone I just wish they would send me the right battery so I can continue to use it! argh

This is my phone - http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msca/en_CA/pdp/Unlocked-BLU-Win-HD/productID.30601420

 

haha, thanks

No, I think he's just crazy. haha He loves talking to himself and LOVES talking back to the radio, and secretly insults everyone (most people don't understand what he's saying because it's usually pretty random or obsolete reference but I know what he's saying). Because I've been there for a while, now I just tell people he's talking to the radio and not them because they always look so confused, and I can relate because for the first few weeks I always thought he was talking to me. Now I just ignore him unless he says my name

Can you help with ICD-10? haha kidding, we have this giant, I mean giant, new coding book and some of the things you can now code for are utterly hilarious! Your email is actually what brought me back to this place

 

Should it concern me that my script blocker is screaming at that link?

(That's partially a joke. My script blocker is tinfoil hat level paranoid.)

 

Well, it depends on how biased against MS your script blocker is.. It's a legit MS website though, except that I noticed I linked to the Canada website, instead of the US one.

Here's the US one - http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/en_US/pdp/BLU-Win-HD---Unlocked/productID.306115600

 

Another update on the battery saga. I sucked it up and ordered the other battery. The seller shipped it out on 11/30 and I was scheduled to get it 12/3. Didn't show up yesterday, didn't show up today and tracking hasn't moved since it departed usps facility on the 3oth. I called and was told, yea, I don't see any movement, I'll have to submit a ticket for you. So they apparently LOST MY PACKAGE.
Why does it seem that everything is against me and I'll never get my replacement battery? This is no longer funny, I just want my battery! uuugh.

 

I think with change, codes are now universal? Could be wrong about that. Here are some of new codes that insurance companies will actually pay for that I find utterly hilarious.
Some of my favorites (but there are so many more):

W59.22XD - Struck by turtle, subsequent encounter
R46.1: Bizarre personal appearance.
10D00Z0: Extraction of products of Conception, classical, open approach.
V97.33XD: Sucked into jet engine, subsequent encounter.
W56.22xA: Struck by orca, initial encounter.
W22.01XD: Walked into wall, subsequent encounter.
W29.0XXD: Contact with powered kitchen appliance, subsequent encounter.

As for the battery, I could almost have bought a new phone with all the money I've spent so far.

 

LMAO!
I doubt there will be a subsequent encounter...

Here's some more...

V91.07XA - Burn due to water-skis on fire.
X05.XXXA - Exposure to ignition or melting of nightwear, initial encounter. She must be hot!
Y92.024 - Injured in the driveway of a mobile home.
