But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

Is the $69.99 with internet?

Okay, am on chat right now. Her first offer is lowering my bill to $99 for 6 months. I am pushing for more (I want HBO back--I miss "Entourage").

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yep.

Also, I just realized that my landlord is probably not raising my rent, since he could only raise it 0.7% and he hasn't given me 30 days notice. So that's cool! I wonder if I can get a loyalty discount.

Is that $99 with HBO? Because that would be like the $69.99 plus...$30 for HBO? That's not right. Yeah, push! (If it's not with HBO, that's bullshit, since the other deal is right there.)

Shit. I'd put towels up around the door seals. They're dry. Have drip. Gotta be under the thresh-hold. Must hunt up paperwork and contact roofer who put the roof on.

Nope. Now she is wanting to transfer me to sales; did that happen to you?

[ETA: I love that my "analyst" is named Zildjian]

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I just called Comcast. They're coming in on Sunday to replace my dvr (there's a glitch that has it sometimes not recording something if certain things happen in conjunction, which has happened three separate times in the past week and pissed me off), and it occurred to me to see how much it would cost if they were to also put in a cable connection into my bedroom and add a second box for the tv in there. It's only another $26 for the installation and $5/mo. for the second box, but the guy coming in this week is booked so he won't have time--I'll have to wait until next Sunday for the installation, which is fine with me.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I called Comcast a month ago cause my rate jumped up. The gal I spoke with gave me back my discounted rate and said that it is good for 6 months, but honestly if I call back at the end of the 6 months they can keep renewing the discount. I just get internet cause my cable is part of my rent.

No! Ha.

Awesome. I've always gotten "American" names like Richard and Becky and whatnot.

(there's a glitch that has it sometimes not recording something if certain things happen in conjunction, which has happened three separate times in the past week and pissed me off)

Yeah, I've found that it sometimes has an issue with adjacent shows on different channels; even if you make sure there aren't too many overlapping minutes, it will drop one of them (or claim it's recording one but won't actually do it).

The gal I spoke with gave me back my discounted rate and said that it is good for 6 months, but honestly if I call back at the end of the 6 months they can keep renewing the discount.

I wonder how many hundreds of dollars I've wasted by not checking for offers every six months.

Yup, me too. And it BUGS me to no end.
