Thank you for sharing a bit more. *raises hand* social anxiety disorder, right here (triggered by a death in my family). It's interesting mapping how my life changed after that, 13 years ago.

I like hearing how people adapt, embrace what they are, and move to the next chapter.

Look forward to more Desert Center stories ~
You sound like a ... Buddhist. :) There most likely won't be any more Desert Center-centered stories since ... nothing happens here, much to my regret. You changed your avatar!?!?

:incog:

I'm paying 130 dollars for internet...it's annoying.
130 just for the net? wow. I'm paying about 60 and it only works about 45% of the time, but holy hell that's high! Have you called them to try and negotiate it down?

Call them and ask for a discounted rate, any deals available, etc.

As of last year Comcast has an undocumented customer loyalty program and they can give new customer deals to existing customers. Also they can find stuff on your service you don't need.

You may have to call more than once to get a good CS rep, I did, but I got like $40 knocked off my monthly bill just for asking.

Yea I've tried this several times, the biggest reason it's that high is I have a high speed like 250mbps down and I have to pay for the stupid fee to be uncapped or I'd be screwed.

Try to nickel-and-dime them. Call once a month and try to get a buck or two off. Sounds crazy but IT JUST MIGHT WORK!

and that was with me trying different browsers, downloading ones I have never used, rage walking outside at 3 AM then coming back to submit the next Vicky...
I've been using Vivaldi and the Chrome Canary build. Vivaldi was the clear winner in load time when I was skipping through the Granola Ingredient HITs to find decent ones. It was much better than Firefox too.
