Part 7: Pissed Consumer: Resolved? “It’s Always Something” -Gilda Radner
It took three calls to the New York State Public Service Commission to seemingly resolve the issues. Can’t wait for the bill to come in and to try to decipher it. I got something bill-like in the mail for -.41. Figure that one out. I am not even going to try.

True to Mercury in Retrograde form, my computer got wonky, aol went down and Firefox and Internet Explorer picked up a few unwanted tool bars. That was at least an hour on the phone. It never seems to fail, call me superstitious or whatever, but when Mercury is in Retrograde there is always an electronic or communication issue. The upside is that one can resolve longstanding issues; a retrograde Mercury may even nudge open old conversations or relationships that need some resolution.
You never know.

Hi, Sue – well, to borrow another phrase from Gilda Radner, I can’t wait until you can see the day when you are saying — “Never mind” — and this whole Verizon debacle is a distant thing in your past.

Dear Phyllis,
I’ll have to get a clip of “never mind!” It was a beaut of a quote and it speaks for what I hope about Verizon and a whole bunch of other stuff that has been going on. You are so right: one day I just want to wake up and realize a lot of aggravation has become “never mind.”
