It’s been a while since I last posted, for a good reason. Over the weekend, Julia and I moved into our new place in Northeast Minneapolis, and at times it was a comedy of errors. Friday consisted of me banging my head on low ceiling in the basement, taking a flying bungee cord to the temple, and nearly losing the very heavy brass base of a table onto I-94. Saturday was actually fairly uneventful as we moved the big furniture with the help of my brother; about the worst that happened was that it rained on us in the morning while we loaded the truck. Sunday morning, Julia and I got locked out of the apartment as we tried to enjoy the nice morning on our deck. I also managed to accidentally smack Misha in the face and step on the downstairs neighbors’ dog.
But possibly worst of all is that during our cable-TV-and-internet install on Friday afternoon, the cable tech discovered that there is something wrong with our cable lines and we will need a new one. That means no internet at home (and no cable TV) until this weekend at the earliest! This unplanned internet outage at home makes me feel disconnected with the outside world. Not fun at all.
Thus, my lack of posting. Hopefully we will get the interwebs working this weekend so I can again use my computer at home. Internet is such a necessity now.
