It is true, you CAN get tired of Starbucks
So.
Internet guy came yesterday, said it's "some other" problem that he "could" fix right then, but his office told him he had to log another ticket about the "other" "new" problem. So I had to wait until today for another guy to come out. In the meantime he knocked out our phones AND our Direct TV, and then told me the phone line doesn't have anything to do with our Direct TV. Except there's a G*d D*MN PHONE LINE coming from my phone jack directly into my DVR. So that required another phone call to Direct TV who at least was very helpful in actually FIXING a problem.
I came home from school at 12:30 and the internet wasn't working, so I called them to see if they could give me an estimated time since I NEED IT TO DO MY WORK. They said Oh, the Tech Guy was there at 10am and he fixed it. Well, my internet still doesn't work, so... So it must be "some other problem" that will require another guy to come out, which requires an appointment, which isn't available until Monday.
So then the window guys come, and wouldn't you know it, Buffy THREW AWAY the sliding side of her window that is broken because she didn't think we needed it. So now.... the $225 window glass.... is now a $445 entire window. This is me... trying to remain... CALM.
So here I am at Fricken STARBUCKS again, doing my actual JOB, until 6pm.
And this is why I am going away for ANOTHER weekend, with Scott, to Volcano, an official GHOST TOWN which has actual INTERNET available. Me and Scott can rest, I can get my stupid homework done, I can calm down, and hopefully get myself ready and rested for Monday when I will again be sitting at home wasting time WAITING.

I am feeling your pain sister. Having that kinda day too.
Solidarity!
I went through a similar situation with my cable company once, my service was up and down for an entire month. They dawdled along and weren't really that concerned about the entire problem, until I made the comment that if they weren't actually providing the service, why should I be paying for it. Funny, it was fixed ASAP after that.
