oh! In my Verizon rage, I forgot to wish happy anniversary to Aimee and MM. Yay!
The rage has subsided considerably since we are trying to take steps to correct things.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Is this the boy you told me about at the F2F?
It is indeed.
After several months of "I can't even imagine myself with another woman" he has more than imagined. I am pleased with the progress, actually (so long as I don't have to see it -- group of us were out and some chick was flirting with him and while it didn't make me freak I was REALLY relieved when he left with us and not her because my imagination is WAY too good.)
His roommate (and long time good friend) and I had a heart-to-heart. She approves heartily, says "he talks about you all the time, he thinks you're the funniest woman in the world." Says even in oat-sowing he's as polite and respectful as ever ("He'll pick up a girl in a bar. The next day when she leaves he's "wasn't she nice?"). Says I should give him a couple of weeks (hm... like three?) and then very much go for it.
So, what the hell do I wear to this wedding? You people know most of my semi-formal wear, actually. The New Orleans Dress (tea lenght silk, blue and green stripes) was the contender but even taken-in its more pretty-sexy than grab-me-and-fuck-me sexy. There are also the Chicago (floor length midnight blue tank with sparkles), LA (tea length pink spagetti strap retro with exposed crinnoline) and DC (floor length fuscia with black overlay with some sequined ornamentation) to consider.
The question, I guess, is: At which F2F did you most want to fuck me?

Lisah...I know him! Or, rather, I met him through a friend of mine. I'm so keeping my eye out for that play.
Huh. Small world.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I can adapt, but the service issues are just way, way over the top.
Having overheard many conversations by Verizon employees on my train ride in and out of Boston, this doesn't surprise me one bit. Every time I think the work-place politics at my job suck, I ponder Verizon and remember it could be SO much worse.
The bad part is, I have them for my local service (with never a problem) and have been considering getting DSL through them. Am now reconsidering.

Don't do it! Save yourself! And write a letter to the president telling him your decision was based on Tom and Nora's hellish experience!
That'll learn him!
Also, heh. Now I'm remembering the Verizon folks on the earlier train.
