Ugh. Got the last phone bill for the old apartment and there's *another* fraudulent charge from “ILD Teleservices” for “Comp U Fix.” Looks like I get to spend more time on the phone with AT&T tomorrow. At this rate I half-expect to get billed again *next* month, even though our AT&T account should be closed by then.

Controversial Post on Facebook by Chef
Many of us who have Celiac, or live with those that who do, know the importance of avoiding gluten at all costs. Many times, finding a restaurant or cafe that has a gluten free menu and takes the time to make sure it doesn’t get contaminated is a source of great excitement. And, sometimes, gluten gets in there anyways. This post by a chef on facebook makes me wonder how often it isn’t a mistake…
Not everyone eating gluten-free is following the latest health fad. Many of them REALLY DO have a medical reason. Food poisoning symptoms wouldn’t start in your restaurant either, but that doesn’t mean you didn’t just poison your own customers. I wonder if this guy feeds sugar to diabetics and alcohol to people who are on medication that interacts badly with it?

So I can change anything about my AT&T service online EXCEPT cancel it. For that, I have to call. And sit on hold. Because they want to be able to talk me out of it. I'm moving to an area where they don't *provide* service. It's gonna be a bit hard to talk me into keeping it.

Now I know why AT&T's website couldn't figure out whether our future address can get U-Verse. The city's phone service is handled by Verizon. (And yes, FIOS is available!) You'd think someone would program it to say, “Sorry, AT&T does not service this area” instead of, “I don't recognize that address. Would you like us to research it and get back to you in 2 weeks?”

I'm working on a remote server that keeps resetting itself to Mountain time. I keep glancing down and thinking, “It can't possibly be *that* late!” You'd think the fact that the sun's still up might be a clue.

For the record: The back explains that it's roasting levels.
Katie: I can see coffee having strength, constitution, and charisma, but the rest…not so much.
Wayne: roasting levels themselves are a stat right? ;> Actually, how does one measure charisma on coffee? How sane it ends up making you after you drink it? ;p
Katie: I'd think of coffee charisma as being layperson appeal…how friendly it is to the general public's palate. But tea automatically has a better charisma, being CHA.
Wayne: (forehead slap) groooan TEAed off good there
Kelson: That's a measurement of Total Effective Armor, right?
Wayne:totally 🙂
Katie:Yeah, that stat increases steeply over time. Makes a big difference in whether you take one lump or two.
Wayne:ba-lump-dump!
Glenna:now, do you want Charisma to mean attractiveness of a person or how hyper-bunny that person is thus driving the rest of us insane? lol 😀

Recycling tip:If you have to feed the cans and bottles to a machine one at a time, it's meant for people with just a few items, NOT 5 hefty bags or a full cart.

Not a fan of waiting for the bus in the rain, but the traffic map looks worse. With luck, in 45 minutes I'll be in my car on the other side of that mess.
