Wireless Router Drama

Our wireless router has been shady for the last couple weeks. I would have to unplug it and whatnot to get it to work. It was a Belkin. Wednesday evening, I called Belkin. I talked to some Arabic lady. I was on the phone with her for over an hour and nothing was fixed. She told me she would have the supervisor call me back. I never heard from him that night.

Yesterday I went to Wal-Mart and got a Linksys router. It came with idiot proof software, or so I thought. I got it working and it was working for a couple hours. I did the set-up with my laptop. When Matt tried to get online on his laptop it shit out.

So I called Linksys and talked to another lady. I don't know if she was Arabic but her first language certainly was not English. Basically she told me this one was junk too and I should by one directly from the company. So that's what I did. It should be here in 5 days or so. The knocked $10 off the price and threw in free shipping.

Talking to programmed robots people on the phone pisses me off. Talking on the phone to people who can't speak English worth a damn pisses me off even more. Before I bought the Linksys, I googled "wireless router with American customer support". Guess who popped up? Linksys. Guess who lied about that? Linksys. I'd rather pay more for a product and have the customer support that doesn't make my blood pressure shoot through the roof.

You know what makes me the maddest? When it's obviously an Arabic person and they tell me their name is Paul/Mike/Bob or something else. Don't lie to me, I'm not that stupid.

I just want our internet to be wireless again.

Oh and I'm linking up with Mimi for F-Bomb Friday because she is awesome.

Sick

I am sick.
My head hurts.
My belly hurts.
My throat hurts.
I keep sneezing.
I can't breathe through my nose.
I haven't been sick for two years.
It was when Matt was in Iraq.
I don't have time to be sick now.
I'm at work.
I have class tonight, tomorrow night, and Thursday morning.
I wonder if anyone will notice if I close my eyes and take a nap on my desk?
Is it Friday yet?
I'll have time to be sick then.

Grumpy McGrumperson

Quitting smoking sucks!!! Not just a little but a whole lot. I'm doing fairly well. I have been rationing myself cigerettes. 9 Tuesday. 8 Wednesday. 7 Thursday. And 6 today. 5 Tomorrow. 4 Sunday. 3 Monday.... Yeah you get the picture.

The only problem is I am grouchy as hell. Even little things make me mad. I wish I could bitch about work on here but I'm just not that stupid. I'm afraid someone from here would stumble across it and I would get it trouble. If you would like to know how it is pissing me off, email me. I would love to vent.

Ozzy is getting his balls cut off on Tuesday. I feel horrible about that but he is not adjusting well to the move. He is 7 and I think its cruel as hell to do this but if it will help it will be worth it. Its either that or he will be living in the garage.

So... I'm just gonna sit here and chew gum and be grouchy.
