Going Dark

Tomorrow we should be signing our new lease and moving into our cottage on the beach. Cable and internet won't be coming until Monday, which means we will have to spend a whole weekend with no internet or TV. What do people do without modern technology? My relocation assistant, who is totally awesome, took me around to open up our utility accounts today. First stop, CableVision for cable and cable modem. Cable is going to cost us like $80 per month (and that doesn't include any movie channels), no HD or DVR. I tried to get the DVR, but they ran out of boxes about 1 year ago. She said they should get some in soon but she can't guarantee it. You can't get HD unless you have DVR. Also, you can get your cable modem for only $34.95 per month. I thought that was a great deal. Turns out you also have to sign up with an internet service provider (somewhere else) for $100 per month. Doh! At least we don't need to get a land line since we're doing internet through the cable modem.

I regressed at work. Yesterday I had 3 people come talk to me...today, only 2. Someone did swing by and invite me to lunch tomorrow with her and her friends. We'll see if she really comes by to get me tomorrow. After work, Jim drove us down the wrong side of the street on the scooter and got us lost trying to find the grocery store he's been to at least 5 times already. I should take his scooter away and not let him drive around cause it's too dangerous for him. Looking forward to the weekend! Need some sleep and relaxation time after all the stress lately. Taking a scooter class on Saturday morning at the scooter shop. Wish me luck!
