OK..SO HERE'S THE DEAL......


I love my high speed...fast speed, what ever the fuck it's called..I love it..but when the person at AT&T was helping me get it all hooked up and shit, it wouldn't connect with the green wire and the phone wire hooked into the filter jack that goes into the wall jack...got it so far?...so she says, take the green wire(from modem to the jack) and just plug it directly into the wall jack...cool..it works...but...now the phone doesn't work..and if I take the filter jack and do it like it's supposed to so I can use the phone..the fast speed doesn't work..so now what the fuck do I do?...I need my phone..The jack by the kitchen and dining room(where the computer resides) and the one in my bedroom are the only 2 jacks in the apt..So I have been using my mobile phone from bedroom, but I can't hear it ring from the bedroom and if I take it off the thingy(yellow dog technology) and bring it into the living room...the battery runs down on the phone..ok..so I should get a new battery, but that entails a trip to the House of Satan and I'm pretty sure that fat lady with all the kids lives in the parking lot and don't want to run into her fat ass again...So...anyone out there know what the fuck I'm talking about and can help me...please email me..Like I always say..hire the handicapped..we're fun to watch...
I got 2 phone calls from Babs today....with great news..she is doing so much better..no details..but trust me on this..she's doing wonderful...I expect a visit soon...with the weather all iffy here(80 degrees and sunny one day and 38 degrees and rainy the next)
I'm not sure when she will be able to come down for a visit..one of the 2 of us will let you know...
Hmm, what other news do I have for you...Oh, Jennifer totaled her car...on her way to visit her boyfriend Jason and hit a guard rail and down into a ditch..tore up the frame and undercarriage..fucked it up good...so she is looking for a car..I'm trying to get her to look at getting a new Saturn. She's looking at some Monte Carlo...Oh, she didn't get hurt..she always wears her seat belt, thank the Goddess, but (and I told her this too) she is the worse driver I have ever seen..The worse..she has had at least 5 wrecks and she's only 20...Jeez!...I'm 64 and had 2 wrecks..one guy was drunk and drove me off the road and some asshole rear ended me..never had a wreck that was my fault...x my fingers...and knock on wood...
I was going to go pick up my mail yesterday and Annie always follows behind me and follows me back..so we're out there in the parking lot talking to Margaret and all of a sudden Annie starts talking cat shit...Loud cat shit..bird noises, meows,hissing...and was prancing around on her tip toes...Margaret and I looked and there was a dog about the size of a truck in the parking lot and Annie was talking cat trash to him...I'm not sure what she was saying but man was she pissed..We cracked up..she was prancing up to him and turning her back on him and sticking her butt in his face and making these weird bird noises...almost a brppp noise..the dog looked confused and finally trotted off..Then she came over and rubbed all against me..think she told him to fuck off or she would kick his ass and then wanted praise from me..which she got..
she is one very strange cat..she has to smell everything..When I got all the Christmas presents and wrapping paper, etc. she came over and sniffed everything I brought into the apartment..sniffed the scissors, the tape, the paper, the gifts, then went and sniffed the door...and then sniffed me...I don't mean a sniff sniff, I mean she sniffs every square inch of everything...When people park their cars she will go outside and sniff their door, the exhaust pipe, the tires..I have never seen a cat do that before..Dogs yes, but not cats...weird...
I'm pissed Santa Clause came to West last Saturday and I missed him..You could pay $10 to have your picture taken with him and I wanted my picture taken with Santa.Mrs. Santa Claus came with him...does she have a first name...?...I mean his name is Santa but what is her name..it's 2007 and think she deserves to be called something besides Mrs. Santa...that sucks..
I am listening to Christmas Cd's....I have a great one that has Mahalia Jackson, Judy Garland, Perry Como and Gene Autry...my favorite Christmas album..Well, I love Elvis Presley's Blue Christmas Album the best..
Ok..more info...now that I can download music..I need to know how to down load it ..do I need to get some floppys and by the way exactly what is a floppy...BBC, that sounds like it could be in your department..I have a plastic box full of the little square dealies, and a bunch of round ones that have pictures on them..Which one is a floppy?...Is there a floppy department in the store?...Why is it every time I say the word floppy a picture of my second husband pops into my mind?...
When I was checking out the things that got transfered over on my bookmarks i found my old copy of all my posts on wordpress...and started reading them...I found the one about 1982, the year my Daddy died and the ones about the 60's, 70's 80's and 90's...the music, the news my life..that was fun...What was really nice to read was the comments..from people that I don't even have as readers anymore..used to get up to 30 comments a post..where the fuck did all those people go..? So I clicked on some of their blogs and some are still out there..rediscovered Rocky, Paul and some others...and now that I have 'speedy'...I can read twice as many blogs and faster...damn this is fun..I had quit reading a lot of blogs cause it took so fucking long for them to download into my slow ass computer..now it takes seconds...so I will be around a lot more..and will be posting more too...bet that thrills you to death..
Ok...I've run out of shit to say...just like typing away on my new pretty flat screened black beauty...(on speed...so she's a black beauty..some of you will get that and some won't)....
fuckme till I double space

john said...

you got one brave cat or one crazy one.lol.

Jan said...

I missed Ask the Goddess. Damn. Next time would you put it on Google News?

I've only been blogging two years but I'm struck by so many people just disappearing into cyberspace without any hint they were going. Seems weird...

bratprince:hey there wasn't a damn thing wrong with the valley of the dolls...one of the campiest movies around..and it had susan hayworth in it...
John:annie thinks she is the Queen and fears nothing...
jan:i will go around and leave little messages for everyone the next time she comes around...

I missed asking a question too, I read the post and went away to compemplate my belly button for awhile to thunk up a good one and then just had trouble finding the button in all the vast landscape down there now. Damn I used to be able to see my feet without leaning forward.
You have a cat who thinks She's a dog and I have a dog who is sure she is a cat.
Black Beauties go back aways. I seem to recall something called a White Cross too but I guess I killed the brain cell that went with a long time ago.
I don't do much with music downloads but if you have a DVD burner we should talk. It's been 2 years since I used a floppy disk and you are being insensistive mentioning them around any male over 45 who doesn't have a precription for viagra.

Funny the Boss has a Monte Carlo and spun out on the ice this morning. Lucky she hit som brush and busted a tail light and not the big oak trees all around the brush.
Weather is too strange lately. Rain then snow when we were supposed to be clear then freezing rain when it was supposed to be in the 40's
If they predict it around here plan on it not happening.
What ever happened to you trying to outwalk Margaret? Little old lady got the best of you didn't she.
I almos had to fight my 13 year old Grandaughter to keep her away from my new His Dark Materials book. She really loved the movie tonight.I'm glad Jennifer didn't get hurt, but I don't want her insurance rates.

Hey, I got the black beauties reference! Do I get a sticker?

I think Annie is a kick-ass kitty! I bet she and Buddha would rule the world together.

I also think ATT should fucking come and hook your shit up FOR YOU. Hello, you're paying 'em - are you not? You don't need some chick on the phone telling you to hook it up bootleg style. No way. Call 'em back and DEMAND that someone help you do it correctly so you don't have to lose the phone line. That's crap. Do you have a router? I don't know a lot about this shit, but that's one of the things HG and I have with ours. I couldn't tell you what else...I make HG deal with that stuff.

NITWIT:I not only remember the white crosses, I remember bennnies..hahah...actually I have taken all of the above and some not mentioned...but that's a whole 'nuther post..If you were a good grandpappy, you would buy her own copy for christmas...by her the one book at a time and use it to keep her in line..ahahah
Annie not only thinks she's a dog, she thinks she's a pitty bull dog..
BG:nitwit had a great idea which I like better..going to get one of those phone splitters and run phone cord from bedroon to living room, can do it at top of ceiling and hook the other phone there...it makes me crazy having to get to a human being..those animated helpers make me nuts..I always cuss at them..and they go...I'm so sorry ..I didn't get that..and I will say, 'cuase you're a stupid machine you fuckhead..'...I'm sorry, I didn't get that...I go nuts..

i'm told that limewire is good for downloading music and bit torrent is good for movies.

maybe you can charm some teenager to set everything up. downloading seems to come naturally to the younger generation.

I used to have a fierce little Manx cat. He once scratched a Doberman on the nose. The Doberman turned and skulked off whimpering!

oh i am so jealous of your new baby... and i wish i could help with the phone slash cable stuff... but i'm not at all electrically inclined...

Heidi said...

I'm jealous you have high speed! I'm afraid I'll have dial-up until my student loans are paid off, which will be in 30 years! Maybe the government will make me get high speed by that time...

yellowdoggranny said...

billy pilgrim;yah, I think I will get one of the granddaughters to come over and show me how to do the music thing...
angel:my cousins came over from houston and fixed it for me..yeah...
HMHH:you might check out att&t..it cost me $19.99 plus the modem..but they send a check for the amt the modem would be so it's a full rebate..only end up paying for shipping ...which is about $12..
