Holy Schmoley! Demands from bubby & Bunny to update!

Let me re-cap my September for ya'll:

1st week - My car in and out of the shop for repairs. $570
2nd week - Tom's truck in and out of the shop for repairs. $400-$500. My bday - had a party & got drunk.
3rd week - Sims 2 came out. Car *and* trunk in and out of the shop for repairs. $560.
4th week - Car in the shop for more repairs. $0 and scored a free oil change for being there so much. Had to take Molly to the emergency vet on a Sunday night because she was crying in pain when we touched her right side. $76 - the little hooch was pain-free as soon as we hit the exam room. *sigh - freaking drama queen*

Still alive after a month like that? Priceless.

So as you can guess, between car issues & Sims 2 I haven't been doing much else. Here's hoping October turns out to be a better month for vehicles, because I don't think I can take much more.

My mom had to put her dog, Flash, to sleep on Thursday. I don't know exactly how old he was, but she'd had him around 7-11 years. He was a spunky 'ol dalmation who could carry 2 tennis balls in his mouth at the same time. RIP Flash.

Tom's already made some sales at WF and he's still in training. So that seems to be going well (better than I expected anyway). There's a help desk position open at Vartec that he's applied for. It would be fun working with him again.

I sent a scathing email to AT&T Wireless today after a stressful ordeal with a ramashamakingkong (my new name for offshore labor - it's so much more fun than anything else). Tom's phone is broken. The b**** won't even turn on. This is the 2nd phone he's had since he started with them in May 2003. Well Ramashamakingkong kept telling me the phone we have is from May and that I'd have to send it to Nokia so they can fix it & send it back. Oh *HELL* no. So we went to the AT&T store & bought one. I wrote a nasty, nasty email to the CEO and demanded a refund of what I had to pay for this new phone all because this ramashamakingkong didn't get what I was saying. I'll let you know how that turns out.

Art is up for The Best of +LiVE+ due out 11/2. You can find it here (please click it - it's pretty). 19 songs & 22 videos. (Audio Only CD due out 11/16 if you don't give a hoot about the videos.) First single, We Deal in Dreams (previously unreleased track) gets released to radio 10/18.
