Basements, Geniuses and Blankets.


To all you 30 something computer geeks
still living in your parents basements playing the latest version of Halo and hacking peoples computers,

One of you, and God knows even one of you is still too many for this world, has done things to my computer that is driving me insane. As of this past Saturday, I have been unable to access my hotmail, facebook, imeem, gmail, and blogspot accounts (I have since fixed gmail and blogspot). Somehow, all the passwords were changed. I don't know how you did it, but you did it. Congratulations! You win. That's only part of the incredible frustration that I'm feeling right now.

The biggest part is thanks to the geniuses, and I use that term loosely, over at hotmail. After waiting all day Sunday for their support site to be working again, sending them a "Support Request", waiting 24 hrs for them to reply, sending them a detailed reply with all my account info in it, waiting another 24 hrs for them to reply to that, only to have them say that the info I sent them doesn't match the info they have. So their solution, create another account.

What Joe Einstein over at Hotmail doesn't realize (even tho I made it pefectly clear) is that I have 3 accounts that all feed off of that email address, so if I change that one, I lose those 2 other accounts (because I can't sign into them), one of which is Facebook.

Now I might be slightly addicted to Facebook, and I know that once I get it back I'm gonna go on it, spend 2 mins realizing nothing all that exciting happened and get off. But it's the fact that I know it's there, like a nice warm blanket. That's it, Facebook is my security blanket. Sad...maybe, true...maybe. But I don't care! I want my Facebook back!

You'd understand if it happened to you!
