My Lost iTunes

Hey, guess what? My iTunes songs are all back.

I was really upset about losing them and was googling for others to comiserate with. I came across this article and it said that Apple will let you redownload if you ask really nice. I figured it couldn't hurt. I filled out the email form on Apple's support page, included all of the order numbers that contained the missing songs, added a "Pretty, pretty please" (Yes, I did) and yesterday I received an email from Apple support saying:
I'm sorry to hear that you lost your iTunes Store purchases. I know how distressing that can be, so I've made all of the content you lost available for you to download again, free of charge. Please understand that Apple does not offer protection against the loss of your purchases, so this is a one-time exception.
Yay!!!

The Countdown Begins

ONE...MORE...WEEK.

I'm scared to death about what my future holds, but I know that getting away from here will be a good thing. I will be very surprised if the company I work for still exists in its current form in two years. Don't get me wrong, I'm not rooting for it to fail. I just see some major probems and the direct mail market is oversaturated with similar publications. I guess we'll see.

My boss is pushing me to go on unemployment. What's up with that? Is that how he needs to quelch his guilty conscience over letting me go? He also asked me today if my last day was the 14th. Um, you're the one letting me go and you can't even remember when you said my last day would be? WTF? Yeah, l just lost the last little ounce of respect I had for him.
