so, who wants to hear a story?
You do. Unfortunately, you’re going to have to settle for reading, but I’m sure you’ll be okay. And here it is:
Password, Password, Who’s Got the Password?
Right, so, hey. You might have noticed that I haven’t been updating. Of course, you also might not have noticed, or figured that it was normal, or something. But actually, there’s a story involved. Of course, by this point, I’m so sick of this story that I don’t actually feel like writing it. So, let me share the highlights:
– My e-mail password wasn’t working, so I had to request a new one. This new password never arrived at my alternate e-mail address.
– I wrote back & forth with the tech support people (I try to be really nice, straightforward and un-stupid, because I had a friend who worked tech support once and his work was completely unappreciated and he always seemed thisclose to going completely postal) but whenever I would explain my problem, they would suggest I try the one thing that never worked in solving my problem, so I figured they were paying absolutely no attention whatsoever to me and I was thisclose to going completely postal. No seriously. Ask Caryn.
– I alternated between being laughmad and crymad and started using words like “Kafkaesque”.
– After much creative searching, finally found a phone number to call with my technical problem.
– Called. Problem solved. And we all lived happily ever after.
Still. Annoying. Bah.
