Seriously?

AT&T is really getting on my last nerve, but the sad thing is that apparently Sprint is even WORSE! I mean WOW!

They told me they wouldn't be charging me for anything, the guy said that the only charges would show up on my next bill, and yet... THEY FRICKIN' CHARGED ME! I'm in the hole $160 because of them! I am *seriously* going to kick someone's butt, and they're going to give me back my money and a month of free data. This is my decision. It looks like they decided for some reason to charge me for the Blackberry (according to the packing slip) which is BS because it was an upgrade and a refurb, therefore it was free of charge.

Anyway, I'm not going to keep ranting, I know you have all heard quite enough of my stupidity of walking in to AT&T traps lately.

I went over and watched the kids for Meg and Michael tonight so they could go out for Michael's birthday and had a lot of fun. Julian's adorable, and made them let him stay up until I got there so he could say hi and after about 10 minutes of cajoling we got him in to bed (he's a surprisingly obedient child for being SOOOO hyperactive!) and Meg and Michael were on their way. Vi was really fussy, turns out she was a bit gassy and her tummy was upset, so after getting her system worked out, I put her down on the bed and cranked up the ambient baby noise (like, the sound of a baby's hearbeat, the sound of a hairdryer, rain falling on the roof, that sort of thing) and she was out for the next few hours. Talked to Jeremy for a while, then put Vantage Point on to watch-- it was ok, but fell short of its potential, I think. Vi woke up around 1230a fussy again, and I thought she might be hungry so I made her a bottle-- she usually only eats like 4oz max but she drained the 5oz bottle! And then looked at me as if to say, "Um, I know that's not all." I burped her (that's what happens when you're a greedy baby!) and she started to drowse off again right as they got home.

I really enjoy watching the kids for them, they're so well behaved and I know they don't get a lot of time to themselves, especially since they have the new baby. Violet's about to turn three months and is getting her personality worked up and set in place, and does this hilarious thing where she'll take her pacifier out of her mouth while she's sleeping, start to get grumpy, and then put it back all without waking up. I can also feel her starting to work her legs when I'm burping her, like she wants to stand up, so I think she'll be an early walker!

Tomorrow I'm going to our staff meeting at Palate, and Susie's bachelorette party is tomorrow night. I'm excited, it'll be fun, but since I don't have any money to spend I feel a little awkward going out. Oh well, it'll be an excuse to dress up cute, I suppose and then I'll just go hang out with Meg and Michael and drink for free with them and play with the baby some more! (note: I do not handle babies while drunk, nor do I really get drunk-- I just have a beer or two. I have no desire to be that lady on COPS)

Ciao!
