2 hours, 4 minutes and 56 seconds

So there was a 4.4 earthquake that woke me up at supposedly 4:00AM. [Yawn.]

1) I had to renew my anti-virus subscription.
2) I had to have the company remotely go into my computer to remove the virus because the virus would prevent the anti-virus from activating.
3) I had to rearrange my furniture until I could plug my computer into the router because the company couldn't remotely go into my computer through my wireless connection.

Bad news: I can't buy as much beer as I want for St. Patrick's Day tomorrow after paying them.
Good news: Everything back to normal and I can still buy some beer.

EMPLOYEE ON PHONE: Sir, are you by any chance Filipino?

Apparently, the company is based in Manila, Philippines. Who would've thunk it?

RYAN: Am I incurring long distance charges?
EMPLOYEE ON PHONE: No, sir, this is a toll free number.

Thank God. This whole business on the phone took 2 hours, 4 minutes and 56 seconds!

I went to guitar practice and apparently there was a miscommunication (or lack of thereof) between management and my teacher because my teacher no-showed.

I bought a journal for my LSAT, took a shower, and arrived promptly ... only to find out that my LSAT prep class doesn't start until April 6! BUT that geek chick lecturer from last week (see entry 3/11/10), Lauren, was there teaching a class. She was in a white dress shirt and beige skirt. If only this was a porn flick, she would've commended me for showing up anyway, given me complimentary instruction in an unused classroom, engaged in cheesy dialogue until bow chicka wow wow.

Anyway, when acclimating (You like that college word!) myself with the area, Vitamin Shoppe has some good stuff and knowledgeable employees.
