omg sweet internets
Ahaha I love public libraries. They have glorious things like public computers that you can use for an hour of amazing connection to the rest of the world. Also there are signs everywhere about free wireless, so I think my laptop and I are going to be good friends of the place.
For those of you not on twitter, I will not have internet in my apartment until Sunday. If I think about it too hard, I start twitching... so... not... thinking about.. it.... *twitch* Oh god I am awful. I just feel so disconnected from everything when I can check my friends page or my lj comms or get on the forums.
Otherwise the move is going... okay. Slept fine last night on the sofa pullout. Got my mattress at 11am today. Except then I went to call the gas/electric... and my name/soc # combination was coming up with nothing. And apparently that can happen when you don't have enough credit... except I should have enough? I paid rent on an apartment for a year... and had the cable/internet in my name. I was under the impression that all that generates credit. Bah I hate financial matters. So I had to walk to this dollar store which is run by an Indian couple, to pay $3 for them to fax over stuff to both places. *sighface* So now hopefully that got there ok. I have till Tuesday to straighten this out before they turn it off... lol?
And then I went to take a shower in my shiny new bathroom.... and discovered that NO HOT WATER COMES TO MY SHOWER. I turned on every other water source in the house and all of them got hot water instantly. But not my shower...no... it just loses pressure and stays cold. So then I took a shower in the other bathroom.. except that shower has a leak somewhere. And I'm just standing there in my towel in a state of WTF?! What deity did I offend? Who/what do I need to sacrifice to make this work? And then of course I realize I forgot my hair dryer AND all of my multiple hairbrushes. So fun times this morning. Supposedly the plumber is coming back later today to check it out.
Anyway, I have 45 more minutes left on this computer. I'm going to go soak myself in fandom, look up a few addresses/maps and then it's off to the supermarket so that I actually have some food to eat.
edit: And I'm totally checking twitter and my email compulsively through my phone, so I'm not *totally* disconnected. All those comments on my last entry made me smile. *huggles all*
