i was on hold for ONE AND A HALF HOURS, getting madder and madder by the minute. i finally said to kevin, who is busily thumbing through a Tandy leather-tooling magazine and wants to make me a purse, I\u2019M GOING TO HANG UP NOW.<\/p>\n
he said “why don\u2019t you give them 10 more minutes.”<\/p>\n
so i kept waiting and four minutes later A HUMAN ACTUALLY CAME ON THE PHONE.<\/p>\n
the whole thing took less than ten minutes, and most of that time was spent making sure that i was really me and not some imposter grace hughes who wanted nothing more than to SIT AROUND FOR AN HOUR AND A HALF ON HOLD.<\/p>\n
i told the guy about my bandwidth issue and he said “i can fix that for you in a second.” AND HE DID.<\/p>\n
so now, instead of 2.88 gb per month, i have FIFTEEN HUNDRED.<\/p>\n
whew. i wished i had more questions for him, but i couldn\u2019t think of anything else. <\/p>\n
it\u2019s all better now, though, and that\u2019s all that matters.<\/p>\n
so all you picture-seekers, LOOK AWAY! and all you chinese people, HERE\u2019S MY WEBSITE. i\u2019d love to hear from any of you sometime, except in english, please.<\/p>\n
ok then,<\/p>\n
grace finally going to bed with little or no angst for the moment anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
