INTERNET

Surprise! I finally got my internet back up and running. As most of you know, it stopped working about a day after I hooked it up the first time. I tried calling Verizon while Morsa was here but got discouraged by the automated computers telling me they had no information and the 20 minute hold times when they kept telling me it would take 5 minutes. This morning however, I wasn't put on hold, and the people I talked to were actually helpful. Turns out the whole thing was due to a faulty phone cord. Silly me, I figured the Brand New Phone Cord that was sent in the package with my modem would actually work. Guess I shouldn't have trusted the phone company with a simple phone cord.

This picture is from fall, before all the leaves fell off the trees. It certainly hasn't gotten any colder since then which is strange. I like seeing the trees with no leaves. It's kinda like seeing mountains with no trees on them to mess up the view. (You desert dwellers should appreciate that.) Especially because all of these trees are really big and old and twisty.

I have more pictures to post and more stories to tell. I'll do that later when I have more time to think about what I'm doing. Right now though, I have to take a shower and go to work.
