Okay so what has been happening you ask? I'd like to say nothing. I mean NOTHING. You know eating chocolate, watching tv, underpaying the maid and spending money like no one's business. YEAH well take the total opposite of that and yep that is what I have been doing. Except for the maid thang. I am the maid and I am underpaid and over worked. We realized that we couldn't make it back in the day. My husband and I went to work over at our friend Jodi's house. Jodi is remodeling and they don't have their central air hooked up yet. It was hotter than you know where. How oh how did people live back then. After we got home and cooled off my husband went to the computer to do his homework to find out that the Internet is messed up. Again what did we do before Internet. We had to go to the library in an over crowded room and get his homework turned in. Only to go home to balance the check book to realize how can we print off our statement if we can't get online. So we called tech support at verizon after spending HOURS AND HOURS trying to convince a computer that we would really like to talk to a human we finally get someone with a pulse that says it will be 10 days before we can fix that. UHHHH are you going to lessen the bill. No sir........EEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRR C YAH BYE! What better way to unwind than to rent a movie off of Dish. Well HECK! Can't order it online so again call support at DISH. This is the actual conversation I am serious
Lady: How much do you want to pay today
Me: I am fine how are you
Lady: Clearly thinking oh great one of them
Me: I would like to pay nothing as my bill isn't even due yet
Lady: Well what can I do for you
Me: I would like to order Are We Done Yet
Lady: Who stars in that
Me: The guy that was in Are We There Yet
Lady: It would help if you could tell me who stars in it
Me: I really don't know his name
Lady: What is the event number
Me: OKAY its not an event I would like to order the movie ARE WE DONE YET
Lady: Event Number please
Me: Where is that located
Lady: I don't know but I have to have it
Me: DEEP BREATH
Lady: How did you hear about this movie
Me: Well it was funny we were flipping through the guide on our dish and it said on channel 502 Are We Done Yet starts at 9:30 my family thought that sounded funny how about renting it. Well our Internet is down so we thought it would be just as easy to call support clearly that is not the case so could you do me a huge favor and get the supervisor
Lady: I can't find that movie and I am the supervisor I think you are lieing to me
Me: LAUGHING Yep I have 5 kids but would rather call you to aggravate than to laugh at the 5 little comedians I have running around here
5 minutes later. Got dial up Internet. Felt like old school. Went online to dish website ordered Are We Done yet and went to bed!
So as you can see falling off the face of the earth would have been a better option than dealing with tech support!

You should know better than giving support a hard time. I should start calling you Jean Seidl! :-P
Just so that everyone is clear here...JOSEPH worked at my house with NO air while Mel sat in a chair watching drinking ice water. So after watching the way she was slave driving poor Joseph...whom she left sweating at my house to return to her own air conditioned house...then you attach tech support...I am going to have to agree with Skeener here...you are becoming JEAN!
LOL I love it! You left out the ice water part. :)
