yeah, I am clearly getting the free basic. screw them, I cancelled the hook-up appt.

Wanna hear the craziest thing. They tell me you can get basic without a box for 13.90/mo. Now this second person I get on the line says if you do that you never know where the channels are going be because you are getting a scrambled signal. Like CBS with be 2 one week then bam it's on 45. I was all WHAT?@!? "that is the single dumbest thing I have ever heard of as a "service" from a company"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously -- that sounds worse than what most people can get for free!

huh, TIVO phone support is 7-8PT and I was on hold for the last 15 minutes, but the line clicked dead at 10:59. I guess they do not even take those in the system waiting. hell.

Great house, zenkitty!

Fuck. I've had a headache since 3. It's not an ita-style headache at all. But still no fun.

On the upside? i had a steak sandwich and a red velvet cupcake. and there is another cupcake on the counter waiting to be consumed. And, I saw yummy and very pretty lemon bars.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I, on the other hand, am having an ita-style headache. And also wallowing. I got a fair amount achieved today before the pain came in, but circumstances out of my control mean that not only is tomorrow jampacked, but some shit I really need to get taken care of ASAP is pushed out another week.

At least I know the pain two weeks ago was worse. I'm going to hold onto that and go back in to watch TV.

I wish I had ordered the large pizza last night.

Sorry for the various pains, people!

Hey -- I have a pizza question about England. In these chick lit books I keep reading, the people are always ordering multiple pizzas. Do they only come in small there?

They didn't in the 80s. We ordered multiples just to mix up the toppings.

Why am I talking food? I have no sensible food. I need to be lying down.

Huh. No half this, a quarter the other, then? It always throws me off when everyone seems to have their own pie, if not more than one.

Definitely never did halves back then. And even now, never done quarters.

I thought you were supposed to be lying down.
