More little things

So now my Outlook seems to be corrupted. Now I'm talking to SBC Global tech support. What power thinks I want to spend my time talking to tech support? I could use Yahoo mail, but I like Outlook. All my addresses are there. My group update is there. I'm not a happy girl. And I'm not an excessively comfortable girl. I got my wound opened--again--yesterday. That didn't hurt because the area was numbed--but it did get a little achy when that wore off. Now I think I'm going to have an open wound for the rest of my life.
I'm being a blonde today, so life is more fun...Well, I was a blonde--I took my hair off because it was getting too hot and itchy.
So now we're holding for more tech support. It took an excessively long time, but I think it is now fixed. I have had my share of tech support for the forseeable future.
xxooxx

These little things...

Have you ever noticed that a good counter irritant will take your mind off your other troubles? Two years ago, I got a cute new cell phone because I wanted to be able to access my e-mails wherever I went. I know, I'm not that important to the fate of the free world, but I really like to keep in touch when I'm away from my computer. So I got this great phone. It helped me stay in touch when I was at the hospital.
So anyway, I've been getting these e-mails that I've ignored about how Blackberry was going to be updated and I needed to do something. Oops. Now I know the guys at Advent are already snickering because they know how tech savvy I am. After I got sufficiently frustrated, I called att mobility. after a long chat with customer service, she got as frustrated as I am. Now I'm on hold being transferred to Research in Motion (aka Blackberry). So you are holding with me...So we talked to RIM--they were useless. Now we're going to Nokia...hang on...Oops--Nokia couldn't help us either. Now we are back to ATT tech support. They weren't helpful either, but, I think the wonderful ATT rep fixed it herself. We're waiting to see how things work. I received a message, now we're trying to send. So this has taken two hours of my busy little day.
Let's hear it for counter irritants!
