the office girl tries to cheer me up and seems upset that I'm not happy when I leave.
The hell? After a dental procedure about all that should be expected of a patient is non-homicidal. And if the patient doesn't quite achieve that? Well, the legal defense is built right in.
Her first question: "Are you still single and childless?"
I am about to have my book published, have friends all over the world and many of them right near where I live, and have a great hair.
[Edit: x-post with msbelle, sort of. In spirit, anyway]
What Calli said, Cash. I hate people trying to cheer me up in any circumstances, anyway, but leaving the dentist in pain? @@
Allyson, WTFF?
I think the "you rude bitch" is implied.
Nilly, I am honored to be in spirit with you.
It's a weird question, right? I think I don't get the point.
I got my first check for the book, BTW. I forgot to bring it to work, I wanted to make a nice copy of it for framing.
msbelle, I'm honored too. So we're in the same corner again. Which is a very nice corner to be in.

Oh, that's an adorable idea. Are you going to spend it on something fun for yourself, or be all practical?
Some of it is going toward time off to finish it at the end of the month. The rest goes into savings. And maybe a teeny bit toward nephew spoilage.
What Nilly and msbelle said.
Sophia, I'm with the people who think you should swing by the old apartment. That said:
It turns out that it is being delivered to my old apartment! So the t-mobile lady said that all I can do is wait and see if the phone is shipped back to them, and then it can be shipped to me! So I ask what happens if the person chooses not to ship it back, and basically I will have to pay for the phone, extend my contract two year, and have no phone.
Which is my fault, becuase I confirmed the order-- I just assumed they had the right address because my bills come to the right address.
What? No. If you can't get the phone from the new people in the apt. please do not accept this. Go up the food chain at T-mobile. This is utter nonsense. You're the customer. You made an error; it's not like you killed someone.
Given that she's an old friend, is there any chance it's a joke, or a reference to something? Because saying "still" like that seems really peculiar if she's referring to 14+ years ago.
Or was she not that kind of friend?
