Welcome to Maryland, Us

[the_gneech]

Well, we're mostly moved. Almost all of the stuff we're keeping is in the new place; what's left at the old place is stuff that's being donated, or stuff that is needed to clean up.

The only major hitch in the proceedings so far is that the FiOS box is over two years old, which means that Verizon can't (or won't, either is equally likely with those guys) activate it without sending a tech out here. Unfortunately, Verizon is going through a workers' strike right now so... who knows if or when we'll get service.

So in the meantime, I have to use my phone's personal hotspot (which will eat through data like whoa), or find a Starbucks and glom on. ;) So my online time may be spotty for a while. :P

Still, given that we had 30 days to GTFO, it could have been a lot worse.

Now... to see if sirfox would consider exchanging renovations for rent...

...

...but first, sleep. *thud*

Wait, Verizon is on strike without both sides putting vicious hit-ads all over the radio?
Weird.

Introduce yourselves to the folks behind you, I think they'll let you borrow their wireless for the time being. They're very sweet. :}

I'm glad the bed fit in the window. XD

Stayin' near SirFox ah? Nifty!

yeah, Verizon is all kinds of twisted lately... bragging about having the 'best' cellular network, but they are selling off the land-lines in big metropolitan areas (like ours!) .. ;P

Is your mobile phone on Verizon? The place I'm moving to has FIOS and when I called to sign up for service, the guy credited my mobile account with 10 gigs of data so that it could be used as a hotspot because of the strike. You might want to see if they'll do that for you, too. Fortunately, I should be able to self-install when I move in. Assuming, that is, that the previous resident ever shuts down their FIOS service.

I hope you at least enjoy the new place some. You'll pull through. :)
