Just move already!
The lease is signed, deposit paid ... and I am more than ready to get this show on the road. Well, not ready in the practical sense. But I am ready to be out of this little apartment! Like NOW!It's looking like we will be doing most of the packing on the 10th ... the 11th is when I will rent the truck and move the big stuff. How many geeks does it take to move a household? I dunno ... but we will find out. All of my moving buddies are techie-geeky kinda guys. One is coming all the way from Nashville. Another is one of my bestest friends ever ... we lost touch for a few years but recently have been emailing and trying to get together for lunch, we made it once! And the third is one of my newest friends ... blogger Doug who volunteered in the comments a few posts back. I just know these guys will get along like old buddies ... it will be an all day long party. Wooo!
This week, I will call to set up electric and water at the new house, and have it cut off here. Since I have VoicePulse phone service, I don't have to do a thing about that, except update my address on their web site. Comcast will be an interesting adventure ... I want to be sure I have service at the new place on the 10th, and service at the old through the 11th. However, they are infamous for their all-day appointment windows, and only if you are lucky, will the installer call before arriving. I can't sit at the house all day while I am supposed to be packing at the old ... I dunno how that will work out.
Sprint caused a pucker factor of 10+ today ... I got the first bill after adding a second phone to my plan. I was expecting something around $110, but it was $270! For some reason, they were charging 10 cents a minute for ALL the call on the second phone, even ones to the primary phone, which are supposed to be free, regardless! Then I got a customer service rep that was just shy of comatose. I was tempted to ask if there was anyone there that was awake. I kept checking to be sure the call wasn't disconnected, he would go so long without saying anything. At least it got straightened out.
Reason #125,378 that I am desperate to move ... darling daughter has a friend over for the night. I have to be up at 6:30. Every little noise and movement wakes me up. Uggghhhh ....
9 days and counting ... yikes!
