No frills, yet full price

And just when the internet begins providing me possible answers...

We are down to our last straw as far as internet providers go. I happen to be writing this from Kinko's again, as they shut off the internet again. Likely we have to change providers again, so these updates will be once again few & far between until the 9th of February.

Our original internet/phone bill of $200 was to be taken care of by knocking off international calling ability, which Steve once again abused. We even eliminated regular long-distance callingin the country. And we STILL get a bill for $200? This is a ripoff at its finest (or worst).

It figures, doesn't it? Just when I was at my most productive state online, as I finally placed a resume on Monster.com and actually began finding some jobs available that would suit my career choice just fine. I only hope that come the 9th they'll still be there, although I was pleasantly surprised to see there were many more jobs that fit the criteria as compared to previous searches. Sometimes it helps to hit the right keywords!

One other silver lining? Steve leaves for the Phillipines on Monday, so at least he won't behanging around here bored out of his mind for twelve days. Remember, there's no TV either.

Whenever possible, I'll update whenever I get the chance to go to Kinko's. Remember, the car situation has not resolved itself, so mobility (as well as everything else in my recent life) will be a question, a concern, and limited in scope.
