Internet Snafu's......
What is up with AOL? Suddenly my font on my journal is miniscule, my dd's toolbar comes up on my desktop, and after leaving a comment for me, JBCoupe shows up instead of her screen name. You know, if I'm paying $23+ a month for AOL and $35+ for broadband, you would think they could get it right! Although, I have to say that after 3 months of no aol expressions, I finally have them. They just appeared yesterday! Everyone was very excited, as we gaily searched through the themes, finding just the right one to express our personalities. DD chose the "NBA" theme, while youngest chose the "shark" on the front of KOL. What did I choose, you ask? Well, I went to the "patriotic" section and guess what I found? A British background! WooHoo! It's a Union Jack flag with the scripted words "United Kingdom" on it. I actually made dh get up from his movie and come in here to see it. Here is the exchange: "Honey!"..."What?"..."Come here and see this!"..."WHAT?" ..."Just come here!"..."I just sat down after being on my feet all day."..."But you have to see this."...(whining) "Why do you always do this to me just when I get comfortable?"...I then hear the creak of the recliner as he gets up, and the slam of the tv controller. "What is it?" He asks, looking at me. I smile and say, "SEE?", pointing excitedly to the monitor. He looks at me as though I've sprouted a third breast...."Oh brother." And then he returns to the den. Apparently he wasn't as excited as I was. Well, I have to give him credit for at least coming in and seeing it. Such a good bloke he is!

You tell this so well It's like I'm actually there seeing it....or just maybe the same exact scenario happens here all the time LOL
Read you email. : )
I really hope my mother told you in that email that you should only be paying 14 a month for aol if you have broadband. They owe you a lot of money don't they now? get it all back! Or force them to give you free months.
