Kathy Griffin
Lisa and I are going to see Kathy Griffin tonight. She had better bring the funny, because I am currently having one of the most technologically distastrous days of my life. So far this morning, my monitor, my speakers and my printer have all malfunctioned and are still randomly malfunctioning. I’m also struggling with tech support to try and resolve an issue on a project I’m working on. An issue that I shouldn’t be having to deal with to this extent. Oh, and the tech support people wrote me back (without even looking at the files I sent them) and said, “Try this!” Which is exactly what I tried and didn’t work and is why I fucking contacted them in the first place. Kill me, seriously, this is one of those days where I’ll be sitting at my desk, crying in frustration.

Oh dear. Not to worry, Kathy will come bearing hilarity. I mean, let’s be honest, you are for all intents and purposes a gay man, her target audience.

If it helps at all, I’m on my way to the salon and I’m looking kinda cute. Madras shorts, white Lacoste polo, and white Chuck Taylors. Did you just say I’m too old for this look?
So did it help?

You smell like pretty!

BotCon is in my tiny state this weekend. Lost Transformer fans galore!
Saw the movie last night. Not good my friends… not good.

Aww hon, I wish I was close enough to bring you a bottle of something nice. I hope your night turns out well.

Michael, you’re not too old for that look and it sounds super-cute.
I’m still feeling like crap. Although I took a long break when my friend came over with her kids. During their visit I discovered exactly how much time elapses from when crumbs are dropped on the floor to when the ants show up. Five minutes. WHERE ARE THEY COMING FROM. HOW DO THEY KNOW?
Oh, and then a tree broke and fell down in the backyard, scaring the shit out of me. Nothing damaged, though.

UPDATE: I have solved the previously-unsolvable tech problem. WITHOUT the help of the assmonkeys at tech support. I am a genius, I am a rock star, I am a goddess.
When I clicked on the button and everything worked, a single, solitary tear ran down my cheek and, in the distance, I believe I heard angels singing.

We had Verizon FIOS installed on Thursday, and they fucked up our phone. So I’ve spent probably 70-90 minutes of my cell phone minutes for them to say they’re not sure what the problem is. Next, i need to deal with Verizon Wireless and convince them not to count those toward my plan, since it’s their company’s mess-up that’s making me use them.
I hate, so much, dealing with stuff like this. I was about to cry on the phone this morning.
I hope you guys have a blast tonight – enjoy and get drunk!

Oh, man. We want Verizon FIOS but they don’t offer it our area yet. Maybe that’s a good thing.

Good luck with that, Rona. I went through a similar cluster of hell when I tried getting my Verizon DSL fixed last year. They wouldn’t refund my minutes, *and* they screwed up the DSL again. Now I’m a customer of T-Mobile and Comcast (who –and I never thought would say this — has treated me better than Verizon ever did.)
FG — I can’t wait to hear about Kathy Griffin. I’m hoping to get tickets to the Kennedy Center show in September.

I’m assuming your tear also made that ** ting ** sound when it appeared on your cheek?
Glad you finally made things work out, darlin’.
