Cancel cable

I tried to call to change my address with the cable company but I couldn't get through "due to a fire in the North Milwaukee location." I imagine as they all fled the building, some manager stopped and yelled to his coworkers, "I must change the phone message! Go! Save yourselves! This is customer service, damn it, and our customers deserve to know what's happening!"

ps did you read my comment for Lo-lee-ta and BIG DETOUR 2005 and super glue?

sometimes people will back-comment and i'll never see the comment. i think that is sad but sometimes you can't just clump all your comments under some irrelevant post. like "Cancel Cable".

I am telekinetically moving everything around in your suitcase so you'll be like, huh? i didn't put my underwear under my shoes. i also am moving your furniture around your new apt (in the future because i am a time traveller) because it is not feng shui.

dan is law reviewing something and i have vowed to stay up with him as long as possible. i have a consent that needs writing (per work) but have not touched (per antsy-ness and disinterest). instead i have devoted myself to writing long and whimisical comments. except in mine. i save poignant for mine. :-P

lalalalala

this was supposed to be a one line comment but who likes those.

I am still moving. Well, actually everything is now in my apartment as of 15 minutes ago. But my internet is still not hooked up. I'm at work now...at midnight. I'm returning the cart that I borrowed to help me move, but the security guard wouldn't let me take it up the regular elevator. He said I needed to use the freight elevator. But that one was currently in use to collect the garbage, so I'll have to wait. It's midnight. And I'm stuck in elevator traffic.

REQUEST: PLEASE POST.

i know you're moving but it's no excuse.

Donny said...

The problem is that I don't have my internet set up at home yet. And I don't like posting at work. I have been mentally writing posts though.

Tom said...

I don't mind posting at work.

donny: mental notes don't really do anything for me.

tom: GET OUT OF TOWN.

Tom said...

ok, I laughed a little bit at the "mental notes don't do anything for me"

and then I read GET OUT OF TOWN and I thought you meant it literally. but then I realized you didn't. and I laughed a lot more :)

donny please give me a timeline with your expected return to blog land.

I don't know what I did before you got a blog.

oh yeah i remember i just read tom's over and over.

an exact time would be preferred, but if you only know a time frame, i'll take whatever you can give me.
