Yesterday I went to the Verizon store with my mother to get my phone line added to the family plan and swap up for a Blackberry. When we got there we were told, no, you can't have six lines on a family plan, you can have six lines on an account, the extra line would have to go on its own plan. Which means something like $80 a month for a Blackberry instead of $30, and also $40 even if I keep my four year old phone and all I do is text because you have to buy at least 450 minutes a month. So... I got fucked out of a Blackberry because Verizon doesn't believe large families exist, and I got fucked out of having my parents pay for even basic service because it's still cheaper for me to stay pay-as-you-go. The only problem with that is, I have no money in my account, and I have no money to put in my account, so I don't even have a fucking phone.
I would have been a lot more pissed off about it if I hadn't had one of my awful, ears-ringing, think-I'm-gonna-puke dizzy spells while standing there talking to the customer service guy. I would have bitched about it... except I was too busy trying to stay upright.
I haven't had one of those dizzy spells in months and months, and I am kind of pissed off that I had one yesterday, because I thought they were a side effect of getting used to Geodon, not something that was going to recur sporadically while taking it almost a year after it was initially prescribed to me.
...so basically I'm pissed off at everything except fandom right now. I even hate cookies, for god's sake, I am a miserable bitch except for when I am reading fanfiction.
TL;DR: fuck Verizon, fuck medication side effects, fuck cookies, now excuse me while I go read about Sherlock and John fucking.

AT&T just suspended my account since I can't pay for it and I'm tempted to just let them cancel it until I Can get a new, cheaper phone plan from virgin mobile (unlimited texting/data/web for $25 a month).
Unlimited data, texting AND web for $25? Fuck me running, I have got to see if there's a Virgin Mobile carrier around here. That's far superior to the crap $20 unlimited texting, plus $3 every day I make actual phone calls plan I have now.Never mind, there's no coverage in Aurora. Damn it, that would have been spectacular, too.

But yeah VM's service isn't that extensive. :( I thought it would have at least covered the whole east coast. sorry doll
Yeah, most of the east coast is covered, but Aurora is basically smack dab in the middle of farm country and Mennonites, and I don't think Mennonites have cell phones. (I could be wrong. I get them mixed up with the Amish sometimes.) It's the one glaring lack of coverage in my local area. Alas.
