Why Are Things So Complicated!?

New

I mean, for shizz!!!  So, Jim's cell phone broke.  The charger completely fell apart and the screen on his phone had a major crack in it so that you couldn't always read texts or emails.  Needless to say, it was time for a replacement.  BTW - this was a phone that I carried for a year and when I got my Blackberry, Jim took it over.  It was a Samsung Strive (at left) and only as much as he needed for work.  When we went to the AT&T store, he said he wanted something comparable - not a smart phone.  So we got him the Pantech Pursuit (only difference with his old phone and the new one was the new one had a touchscreen).  When I got the phone, I asked the guy, "so everything that the old phone had in it's rate plan will be the same?  I won't need to do anything different for email etc.?"  Answer: "Nope.  You'll be all set with all the capabilities that you had before."  Great!  But of course Jim's not getting his emails automatically sent to him and I'm annoyed.  Last time this happened (when we switched to the strive) they said, "Oh, well that would be an extra $5 a month." (who knows why).  Ridiculous.  I'm letting Jim handle this because I'm sick of dealing with technology and the exorbitant amounts of money that these stupid companies just keep charging us and for some reason, we just keep paying them.  How did we ever get along before?  UGH!

So I've walked my baby girl.  I'm going to run here in a minute.  I need to give Sami a bath because she's all itchy.  I've checked her for fleas and she didn't have any so I want to see if a little soothing bath with a "tea tree" type shampoo will give her some itch relief.  I should try to bathe Bubba too but that will be a feat, for sure.  Other than that, I've got no plans.  I'll try to get to the library after all my "jobs" at home...see if any DVDs tickle my bung.  Maybe they'll have disc 1 of season 4 True Blood.

And that's all I've got.  Best mosey before I lose my running gumption.  Later!
