When it’s “supposted” to “warm up” to -5 during the day, I really question my decision to live in the northeast. Where’s that damn global warming when you need it?

Phone came on Saturday morning. I was made aware of this by Kim calling and getting me out of bed at 9am after she had plugged her new speakers into the Mic In port of her computer and wanted to know why no sound was coming out. I still haven’t gotten around to getting dial-up access numbers for EarthLink so I don’t have internet at home yet. Tonight though. Adelphia is coming on the 19th to hook up my cable modem and then I’ll be all set. Yay!

Still no phone. Verizon was supposted to stop by yesterday. I was first on the list yesterday, declining Monday, for my re-re-scheduled hookup. Didn’t seem to help much. I have now been told that someone will be out on Friday morning. When I asked about why they couldn’t come out today (Wednesday), they said they work on a first come / first served basis and Wednesday was already booked up. I pointed out that I had come first (middle of December) and should be served before these other people. The lady on the other end of the phone didn’t follow my logic. Tivo was very upset about not being able to make it’s daily call and ran out of guide data so I had to cart it into work today and let him use the office phone to fill up.
