Tuesday Stew

Item 1

IT'S COTILLION DAY!!!!!!!!! Portia Rediscovered is our lovely hostess today; stop by and say hello.

Item 2

Computer problems. UGH!!!!!!!!!!! Direcway stinks, you all know it, I've told you before. So my computer was sort of, kind of acting like it had a browser hijacker again; but no . . . it was Direcway. Like many companies Direcway has outsourced their tech support to India. Each and every time I've called (except for the one time when I had a real live American man) these Indian men have been VERY rude towards me. I came to the conclusion yesterday that it's their societal structure. Women are subhuman in their world and how dare an American woman voice herself. How dare a woman speak in that tone to a man. How dare a woman use something as complicated as a computer . . .GASP!!! I'm going to look into Wild Blue and see where there tech support resides. Not only is their English difficult to understand, but the attitude, THE ATTITUDE!

Item 3

DON'T FORGET TO VOTE!! Well, here in Colorado we are voting today. It is suppose to be the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, but not this time. I guess they like keeping us on our toes.

I'll check in with everyone later.

Hi Stacy. I was just wondering if you know what happened to The American Housewife and her blog? I actually came across your blog and learned of The Cotillion through hers, but she disappeared shortly before Katrina hit (I believe she lived in Georgia). If you have any news, please pass it on? Thank you. And keep up the good work!

I actually have posted on her locale. If you look in my blogroll she's at The Gray Tie now, both mine and the Cotillion one.

Shouldn't you be in the kitchen cooking something? Unless of course the oven is computerized, in which case you may have to wait till the man gets home. Argh!

Oh, Darlene, thank you so much for the laugh. I miss you and your blog. I've been so busy lately and am thinking that it isn't going to be lightening up much, what with the holidays and wrestling season. I'm hoping to surf tomorrow, I'll stop by, take care. :)

We had an doctor from India when my daughter was in the hospital last year. Rude, condescending, wouldn't look me in the eye. The doctor didn't stay on our case for very long - I asked for a new one, and explained why. The doctor from Inda was a WOMAN.

Can't wait till you come visiting and blogging again tomorrow - you've been missed!
