No Hablas Internets

When we got home Monday from visiting my folks, we discovered that our cable was gone. The TV and the Internet connection were not just on the blink but non existent. A few phone calls later proved that we were without signal altogether. Then our DVD player died. I am so not making this up. A week before we leave, with emails and all sorts of Internet related work to be done and no internet, and–and!– no way to watch TV, which is a nice way to alleviate the boredom of packing, to have some noise in the background. It’s excruciating, I tell you.

If I can manage to get to a cafe or some place with free wifi, I’ll have a cat picture up before we hit the road. My plan is to still post pictures of our trip across the country so keep an eye out for those as well.

    That is a major bummer, as we said in my youth.

    They aren’t likely to do anything about it at this point, as you are about to be a former customer.

    Already a former. I called and canceled. Once I told them to cancel service they wouldn’t have pissed on me if I was on fire.

    Moving is fun!

    The first round of travel pics will be up shortly. 20 hours in he car is a tad tiring.
