So, we moved into our new house on Friday night. (Thanks so much to the dozen or so people who helped!). Unfortunately, due to some quirk of the way DSL service works, we had to agree to a multiple-day dry spell in our internet service in order to keep the same phone number. Yes, in a high tech world where most internet-related things seem to only take an instant, DSL service takes five days to hook up or transfer.

I feel really out of touch not having read any email or blogs from late Thursday night until today. After receiving a third phone call asking “did you get my email?”, I figured it was time to take the laptop to somewhere with a wireless internet connection and get caught up. Amazingly, Madeline has been happily sleeping in her car seat for nearly 45 mintues now as I have enjoyed an Iced Caramel Latte and some internet useage at Stomping Groungs. It’s a nice break from unpacking in our new place and cleaning in our old place.

Best case scenario, our internet MIGHT be working tonight (five days, including Friday and today, but that is counting the weekend) or at worst next Monday (not counting Friday, since I called after five, and assuming it takes a full five business days, and doesn’t start working until the next business day after the five days. )

At least I have fewer distractions to my unpacking and cleaning. But if you don’t see too many blog entries or emails from me the next several days, at least you’ll know where I am…the DSL desert.
