I have to dial 1-310- from inside 310. And I get mad about it every damn time. This started probably three years ago. grumble.

Mostly lurking...
When Massachusetts split dialing codes the most recent time, you had to start dialing the area code, but not the 1. So now I do get a little confused sometimes.
Emily is me. Also, on my cell, I don't have to dial 1 for any area code, which also just adds to the confusion.

We've had that in this area for a while now. Although, you don't need to dial the area code for DC number if calling from DC, but you do need to dial it if calling from a VA or Maryland number. I just dial them all by default.

Atlanta did this too, and it was fine once you got used to it - the 1 was just for actual long distance.

This drives me nuts, though, because between that and cell phones, I'm so accustomed to dialing area codes that every time I have to dial someone from work who's also in 312, I have to hang up and start over w/o the area code.

Oh, I meant to tell everyone, come visit Madison. Johnny Depp and Christian Bale are here filming Public Enemy. Well, filming in Columbus for the next couple of days. Then somewhere else and then in Baraboo. So, I'm sure if we stake out the Hilton, we can find their rooms.

MD has this too - area code for regional calls, 1+area for long-distance. But IIRC, if you do dial 1+area for regional calls, nothing bad happens. Your call will still go through just fine.

I had canned chicken noodle soup to which I added chicken and stir-fry veggies. Also hot cocoa to which I added a dark chocolate candy bar and vanilla.
No tots here.

mmm that hot cocoa sounds scrumptious
hivemind: "It was placed under the counter to prevent its being stolen"
or "it's being stolen"
or should I rephrase that entirely?
