Typically, when I make holiday pies for the family, I make pecan (aka: Gelatinous Nut Pie) which I don’t like, and pumpkin, which I LOVE. If you get the big can, it makes two pumpkin pies. I usually keep one for myself. Pie, as my Moür Moür taught me, is good for every meal. This year, the Christmas Eve dinner included 18 people. So I brought both pumpkin pies over. But I only got one baby slice. There was no pie for Christmas morning breakfast. Or Christmas afternoon and evening snacks. So I am making myself a little pie right now. How is it I make so many pies, but have no pie plates? Someone out there has a surplus of pie plates.

So, no DSL. What’s more, verizon cancelled my email account. I only need that for an SMTP server, and I could use webmail, but it’s very annoying. So I got my own back up dial up account, so I could quit mooching. And I could have reliable SMTP. I also ordered a cable modem and high speed internet access from the cable company. I’ve had it with verizon. It’s just so annoying and every single thing is a nightmare to deal with, when it comes to the internet. Even their website is confusing. So I am canceling DSL.

Now, until I ordered that cable modem, I didn’t understand how powerless Verizon was making me feel. Because as soon as I hung up the phone, it was SUNNY DAYS AGAIN! I’m so happy, I might just accomplish something with my week off that is already halfway over. Instead of playing the sims. Although, I must say, I’ve created my most successfully slutty sim ever, Thea. A recent college graduate with a degree in psychology, Thea currently has 4 “lovers.” One more and we get bonus points! That girl is a woo-hoo having machine, I’m telling you! Currently, she is working in the paranormal field. But we might switch to athletics. She likes doing the yoga and working on the treadmill.

So, pie in the oven, cable modem on the way, sexy slutty sims burning up the woo-hoo, life’s looking up.
