Stupid Phones

Dear Husband,
And really, anyone else who would be calling the house to talk to any of us, actually. The house phones are seemingly down. I can't call out from here, with the house phone OR with my cell phone. (The cell phone thing is an entirely different scenario, and has more to do with the fact that Sprint can suck my left big toe for their unnecessary drama...it's not OUR fault that they said the bill for July was already paid, thus leaving us free to save our money until the August bill was due, then deciding the last week of July to say "Oh, hey, we never got paid for your July usage, and now we're going to suspend your service until you pay for 2MONTHS of service! Good luck coming up with over $600 to get your phones back on!! Yea, we're switching to Verizon once Husband gets his first check from this job, I get it.) Where was I? Oh yea! So I can't call you if anything goes horribly and terribly wrong with one of the kids. I can't even call 911 because there is exactly NO dial tone when I try to pick up the phone. To the best of my knowledge, nobody has tried to call the house, but that assumption is only based on the fact that the phones have yet to ring today. I could be completely wrong, and people could've been trying to call all morning long, and just things are ridiculously screwed up and nothing will go through. Anyway, I just figured I'd let you know that we're again stranded at home, but this time we can't do anything at all about it because I can't even use the phone to see if someone would be so kind as to come play with us. Anyway, we really are here, just can't contact anybody, once again. I'm gonna go ahead and chalk this one up to your parents failing, once again, to do something they should've done, and now I'm paying the ultimate price for it. (Hey, thanks, a-holes!) Right, well we'll be here whenever you get home, and hopefully something can be worked out so that we can fix all this crap before I completely lose my ever-loving sanity...not that I have very much of it left, so maybe we should expedite this whole process. (Hey AMSA 91, that would involve you deciding that paying Husband before the 27th of this month - at which point he will have been working for you for 4 business weeks - would be an excellent idea, and something worth going ahead and fixing!!) Have a nice day at work, and hopefully you don't have anything too pressing to tell me, so it will all wait til you get home to tell me.

Love always,
~the Wife
