bad karma?
Aug. 16th, 2002 09:21 pmSo my new cellphone has all these internet features. Some of them I can't get to because their website is screwed up and won't let me assign a new password. A call earlier this week netted me the information that I was SOL until their update on Sunday was completed - probably Monday morning. But, I was reading in a newsgroup that some have found a tricky way around the problem. I gave it a go with a little swizzle of my own and managed to totally lock myself out of all the functions except for calling out and receiving calls - the basics which, fortunately, I still have. Another call to customer service confirmed that I was screwed until they fixed the website.
Then I got a note that I had been unsubscribed from a mailing list. Now I've been on this list for nearly 8 years. I was a charter member. It has grown substantially to about 6,000 members and so has a lot of rules now. I don't think I broke any but the note said I had been unsubscribed. I went to the list's website and sure enough it had no idea who I was. Fortunately, I have the email address of the current list administrator so I dropped her a not appologizing for whatever it is I did wrong and begging to be let back in.
This baseball strike thing has me really cranky. Plus the Yankees are currently beating them which is very annoying.
On the upside, I did finally get the Google toolbar back on my Mom's browser. When her grandchildren were there, they managed to screw up a bunch of stuff and I had gotten most of it fixed but couldn't get the Google toolbar back to save my life. Finally figured it out tonight.
I'm thinking this is the turning point. The rest of the weekend will be hassle free???
