Can't live with them...

My home phone has been out since Thursday, which means no dialup.  Plus, I've been offsite at work since Friday, so I've been really tough to reach.  This is causing my roommate much stress, since we're currently searching for another roommate, and I can't much participate in the search without a phone.

Verizon was supposed to look at it yesterday, but of course no one was at home, so if it's inside the house, they couldn't do anything.

I don't much care about the phone being out-- I get anxious about using the phone anyway.  But not having internet access at home makes me feel like chewing my own paw off.
