tweakage (2009)

    OK, now I'm seriously done with the template for a while. I've reordered the sidebar so it makes a bit more logical sense. I've added hover titles for the Tags (check them out - they're kind of funny). The Backlist is in a handy drop-down menu instead of the massive block of links. The font is back to my familiar Georgia. Questions, comments, complaints: let me have 'em.
    In other news, I've spent the day doing laundry, vacuuming cornmeal and beads out of the berber carpeting, and watching football. I'm not surprised that the Giants lost (Elisha hasn't had it this year - you'll never convince me otherwise) and I'm thrilled that the Steelers are doing so well but I'm not dancing yet. (As I type this, SD scored a TD. Bastards. It's gonna be a long final 9 minutes.)
    My feet are absolutely frozen and my head's been goofy all day. Sort of dizzy and discombobulated. I'm oddly glad I'm not making an appearance at the CatBeast's. I would hate to appear even more lightheaded....
    My phone has completely gone off its rocker. I don't receive all my text messages (not like I ever have!). Someone called me this afternoon and the phone didn't ring, but after the call it made a sort of beep and the readout said "Missed Call." Um, thanks. I tried to send a text to the person who'd called and it wouldn't relay the text for the first 25 minutes that I tried to send it. I'm about ready to take the thing out back and shoot it. My bill is also incorrect...again...for the 8th straight month. I didn't realize that the bill was wrong until the 4th month, so at that point I took it to the Nextel store and they "corrected" it. Month 5: online customer "service" fix. Month 6: same thing. Month 7: same thing. This time, I've printed the bill and will take it to the Sprint store. I will present the problem in exactly the same way that I have the past four times. If they do not offer a solution that is different from that offered the past four times, I will seek to be released from my contract so I can get a phone and service from a company that actually provides reliable phone and text - and customer - service.
    I'm putting off writing a "thanks but...no" message to an OkCupid guy. Started writing it about 3 hours ago. Why do I care about his feelings? Ugh. I hate feeling soft about this. Wish I could just ruthlessly crush him, delete my profile, and leave this chapter behind. Instead, I'm struggling to phrase it all nicely, and he's probably not going to remember me in 2 weeks. *sigh*
    Maybe I should finish the vacuuming and do my toenails before I write that message....
