I can think of a million and one reasons to be somewhere else right now, but suit yourself.

Sheesh, what a week.

Work has been kinda slow-ish (always is right after the holidays). Altho, I had interesting conversation with the boss lady today. Apparently, she can't stand the new assistant either (known as Spaz). HA HA HA!!!! It made my day to hear that.

Ahhh.. silence is good.... My neice and nephew have just left, and the dogs are finally settling down. I'm waiting for Holly's 10:00 rampage. Then I'll let her out, put her to bed, become a vegetable with the other pooch, let her out then go to bed myself. Yay, sleep....

In the meantime, I've been trying to get a hold of the new phone I want. Damn Cingular screwed me over. I guess it's partly my fault because I waited so long.

Ok. Here's the story. The Nokia 6820 came out (which is the upgrade for the 6800 - the one I currently have), and I wanted to wait for the price to come down a bit. Quite a while had passed, but the price never came down, so I said screw it, I'll get it once I get my Christmas bonus. Nice little gift to myself, or so I thought.

Anyway, I got my bonus and started looking into getting it. The stores don't carry it anymore since At&t Wireless is now Cingular, but I found it on the Cingular website. $99- with a $70- rebate if I bought it online. Which was a sweeeet deal since it was about $250- new. Sold. Like I said earlier, tho, Cingular screwed me over. In order for me to order it online, I would have to change my contract over from At&t to Cingular. No problem, I thought. I was stopped once again because my plan is a family plan (I got my mom a line so she could have a cell), and family plans can't be processed online. Please stop in the closest store or call the site says.

Next step, stopping in the closest store. I figured maybe I could change my plan over, then go online and buy the phone. Not so fast!! I was told that I had to buy a device in order to change my contract, but the phone I want isn't in stores anymore.

The point is, I'm back to square one. Dammit.
