1848 it's like...i feel guilty...like i made this overwhelming sweep of my hands and just shut down something that permeated me for so long... being here feels like a cheap shot almost, still...but i just can't justify going back to my old journal as of now. Myabe this is just a short term way to readjust...less pressure to update maybe? Part of me hopes someone will bitch at me for ending MES...but i don't expect that. Part of me wants to see myself continue to journal, for posterity if nothing else. Yet another part of me wants me to shut up. now...a word on my ISP issues here in Okinawa; Japanese don't have "toll-free calls". You could call next door and you would pay for it. My military phone line though, allows me to call other military lines. So...i can subscribe to the *one* military sponsored ISP with servers on post, or pay for every second I spend on the phone while online. not much of an decision you think? WELL...the military ISP has NO unlimited use plans. Last month, my first month with Konnect...base rate of $30 for 80 hours, $2 each additional hour. Which is quite horrid, and made all the more worse by my just recently overcome addiction to Everquest...I was on for 40 hours straight three weeks ago... so um...yeah. I owe $280 to my ISP right now. TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY FUCKING DOLLARS! I could repeat that like a mantra, but I think the point is fairly clear. jesus $30 is already twice what I pay for unlimited access in the states... Konnect has upgraded to $35 for 120 hours, and I'm off the Everquest addiction but still... ouch I can afford the bill is the scary(?) part. three months ago I would be putting off other bills to pay that. just... ggggggaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh current mood: annoyed
