Thursday thoughts

Taken from MSNBC: "The Florida Keys ordered an evacuation of tourists and other nonresidents Thursday as Hurricane Dennis stormed through the Caribbean on a course that forecasters said might bring it to the state by the weekend" . . . but they let the residents stay?! Protect the tourists and their money, but the losers that chose to live here year round can fend for themselves? This amuses me for some reason.

I'm starting to hate the telephone. Yesterday I was on hold for 35 minutes TWICE while trying to call my therapist's office to confirm what time my appointment was. I had the joy of finding out that their phone system kicks you off after you've been on hold for 35 minutes. Shouldn't it be a rule that all doctor's offices provide the option of leaving a message for someone so that you don't have to put your life on HOLD to be on hold? Okay, so I could take tape off the wall and be on the phone at the same time, but that's not the point! I've been trying to call the Penney's portrait studio at Oakview since yesterday morning, but its been busy every time I've called. Methinks that there is something wrong with their phones. Or maybe they are just really busy and I should have called a year ago to get Alyssa's appointment for her 9 month pictures.
