It's my birthday bitches!
HAd clinical. It was pretty interesting to attend. New rotation, new unit, new hospital, so we got the traditional floor orientation and then talked to some of the patients and staff.
After clinical I came back here to pick joey up. He bought me some stuff for my birthday, but it's naughty, so I won't say what it is. He also baked me a coconut cake, which he was a little worried about after he told me what kind it was, because he thought I'd told him I hated it at some point. It's really good though.
We went to O'Charleys (sorry Lyn, no rolls, they'd closed the kitchen for anything but "appetizers") and I had a few drinks. Of course I got my ID checked...but I'm 21 as of 3 hours ago >:-D~.
We went to my house after that and had dinner with my parents and they gave me my present, which was money! So that's always useful. They got me an ice cream cake form Dairy Queen...with harry potter on the top o.O, dad says it was because I was watching the Prisoner of Askaban the other day, lol.
Currently I'm rather pissy at the internet. See...for the $90 that Joey pays a month, and the $120 my parents pay....we don't have itnernet...."what?" you say? How am I posting?
Well it's simple...we -have- internet...but we only have ENOUGH bandwidth to load AIM and livejournal.
No other websites or applications will load. I've been on hold wiht charter after screaming at the automated voice technician the words "YES!" "NO!" "CONTINUE!!!!" 20 billion times because apparently, my english accent, sounds greek or spanish, because it doesn't understand what the fuck I'm saying.
I have JUST enough bandwidth to post in here, and sit with my thumb up my ass because I can't load ANY website other than this one.
Isn't that fun?
What's funner is that other than Charter and Bellsouth (which is expensive as FUCK) we have no other options that are broadband or satellite. Everything else is dial up....and FUCK that.
I've been on a 15 minute hold for about an hour now, but it's down to 3 minutes now. I'm getting pissed off at this bullshit. This is the 8th time in a little over two weeks that we've lost internet access. Though I guess we're "lucky" we still have aim and livejournal....
Were I the one paying for this shit, they would be hearing a lot more from my ass than "when's it back up?" they would be hearing "I'm not paying for internet that I haven't been getting. Either give me my time back, money off, or I -will- go to Bellsouth"
....
finally get a tech, our itnernet should be "up" by "morning". Apparently they've been working on a router in the area that charter uses to route the signal, and our shitty bandwidth is due to that, the router went down at the same time our internet did...or...sort of did.
