Still do not have phone number.  Old provider being punk.

Still do not have mailbox.  The U.S. Postal service only uses the"Neither Rain, Nor Sleet, Nor gloom of night" crap when it doesn't involve getting a new box.  WE HAVE NEIGHBORS ON EITHER SIDE OF US.  How is it that we don't have a box?  No one seems to have an answer.  May go postal.  *hysterical giggle*

Nolan says he needs my cell phone (it's a company phone) to give to one of the employees.  Not fussed about getting me a new one.

So to recap...  No mail, no cell, no phone service.   Were it not for the internet, I would be an island.

But no man is an island.

I'm a woman, though.

See?  The isolation is getting to me already.

ETA:  Sicked Nolan on Postal Jerks.  Have key.  Hurrah.

I should have been more specific. Or neighborhood has these big banks of mailboxes. Like an entire street has their mailboxes all in one place.

Ah... That makes sense, then. Yeah, I'd have been all over them like white on rice, too.

Either that, or I'd have put my own box out on a sawhorse by now, and told the post office that since they can't seem to get their shit together they can deliver mail there until they do.

But then again, I'm an asshole when I'm pissed off. (Some would argue that I'm one when I'm not.)

And the cell phone? I just have to be patient. He'll do it eventually.

I take it that you're not on the account then?
