There's a person named Karen Chan who works in a different department at work. We work with each other, and lots of people work with both of us, but unfortunately, everyone decides to send emails that are supposed to go to me to her instead. Half the time I don't ever get the original email or meeting request because she doesn't forward it back to me - she gets that many. Her only solution: that I marry someone who's last name doesn't start with a "Ch". Right. Because that's the obvious solution.

Now I know what happens when you get warned to 100% on IM - you get kicked off. You can ask joe about that one. ;) And also, people who IM you "hey," wait for your response, warn you, and then log off immediately are wimps. Yes, I'm talking to you, drew.

Costco update - after multiple emails (with no response), a call to the actual warehouse where the guy couldn't find my order and promised to call back within 30 minutes (which he never did), calling their 1-800 number, listening to their elevator music for 10 minutes only to lose reception on my cell phone, calling again, listening to their elevator music for another 25 minutes, and FINALLY talking to someone, the result: my tires are nowhere to be found. What kind of service is this?! I was charged a whole lot of money three weeks ago for these suckers. I want my tires. The lady said that they may have to ship out another set because she doesn't know where the original set went, which will take at least ANOTHER week. But I won't know anything until tomorrow, when she is supposed to email me. Yeah right, let's see if I really get that email. Yeah, never order anything from Costco.com. Lesson learned.
