I Couldn't Agree With You More

****

I was having a really good day, until around 7pm, but I've
decided that in the interest of me and the baby I'm not
going to get upset. Alright, I've already gotten upset.
But, I'm not going to get anymore upset. I've let it go.
Kinda. Oh, who am I kidding? I'm still a little pissed and
I probably will be for awhile. There. I told the truth.

Just like yesterday, Snookums and I had breakfast with Dan
and Helena before they left for the airport (then off to
Las Vegas for Christmas). I had this really yummy berry
compote over french toast that was very nice. It had
blueberries, strawberries and blackberries, plus some
sliced banana too. It was much lighter than syrup. Anyway,
it was good.

Work went very well today. There were no major
malfunctions of any kind. I spent about 95% of my time
behind the cashwrap. I didn't get out too much, which was
fine. The time flew by amazingly fast. Those are the kinds
of days I like. No mean people or anything noteworthy.
That happened after work.

I was supposed to get off work at 5:30pm, but I had a
pretty long line at the time and one of the girls that
should have been there left early with a headache (I think
she was faking it, but anyhow). So, I took one for the
team and stayed a little longer. Once I did leave a little
after 6pm, I decided that since I was in a good mood and
just so happened to be in the mall anyway, I might as well
finish my Christmas shopping. I still had Snookums to shop
for. So, I do my shopping. Very happily I might add. But,
when I'm about to leave, that's when all hell breaks
loose.

I opened my phone to call Snookums to tell him I'm on my
way home, but instead of talking to Snookums, I end up
listening to an automated machine telling me my service
has been suspended until I make a payment. I thought that
was weird, but okay. So, I stopped in T-mobile to use
their payment kiosk. I punch in my information and get to
the payment screen that tells me I need to pay.....$639!!!!
I nearly shit a gold brick. There's no way in hell. So, I
stand in line for 30 minutes. Behind all the dorks
upgrading to phones they don't need and the challenged
people that are too inept to figure out how many minutes
they have. When I finally get up there and ask the guy why
the hell do I owe $639, he basically tells me to screw
off. Because I'm not on the account, I can't access it.
Only Jason can. I need to call him to come down and talk
with them. By this time I'm getting pissed. How the hell
am I supposed to call him if we don't have phone
service? "You can use one of our phones". HOW THE HELL IS
HE GOING TO RECIEVE THE CALL, MORON! I stomped out
completely pissed off beyond belief. I don't understand
how I can write the checks each month to make the
payments, but when something is majorly wrong, they won't
even talk to me. I came home, patiently explained the
situation to Snookums and sent him back to deal with it.
An hour later he calls me back to explain the situation.
Here's the kicker:

The reason our bill is $639 is because my dumb ass husband
used up (and subsequently went VERY over) our minutes
talking to the little trick (Michelle) he met online. So,
not only did he get me upset and cause even more friction
in our relationship (by trying to be vindictive), but he
cost us $639!!!!!!! They took a pity payment of $98 to
turn our service back on, but he's going to have to call
customer care tomorrow to see about the rest of it. There
isn't a damn thing they'll do. Except maybe allow him to
split it up over time. When he finally got home, he looked
right at me and said "I'm a fucking idiot". All I could
say was "I couldn't agree with you more".

I tried to relax after all that. I took a nice leisurely
bath with the Cucumber Melon body products I bought myself
as a Christmas present tonight. I painted my fingernails
(a pretty clearish-pink color called Blissfully
Oblivious), then I wrapped presents (which makes me
happy). I feel better now. I still can't believe Snookums
is really that dumb. That's one of the first things they
teach you in Infidelity 101. Don't make suspicious phone
calls to the "other" person on your cellphone. Dumbass.
Especially when your wife handles the bill! He's asleep
right now. Is it wrong to strangle him? Alright, alright,
I'm supposed to be getting over this now.

I think I'll be going off to bed. I had a good day for the
most part, but it was still long and I'm still tired. Ciao.
