Convenience!

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! For the first time in seven months, I am sitting in the comfort of my own home browsing the Internet and writing a blog. Yes it is true, for the last seven months, the various structures that I have called home have all been devoid of an Internet connection. During those seven months I was required to use the computers at work after hours (Yuck), or pay an arm and a leg for a wireless connection outside the park (Yuck). I have recently moved just outside North Entrance of the park to a real house with a real Internet connection! And I actually signed a 12 month lease, Gasp! I have rediscovered the joy of browsing the Internet and wasting time. Of course I have a to-do list, but since I have to wait until the end of the week to receive news about some job applications I should have plenty of time to check my email every five minutes, look at YouTube, read news, and generally plug back in. And the timing is great. The temperature hasn't risen above 0 degrees Fahrenheit in the last two days so a little quality couch time can be justified.

Good. I'm glad to see you have access to be blogging on a regular basis cuase I definitely need places to check out online to deter me from doing something productive such as studying for finals. How is the chair working out for ya in your new place? Haha-your old college rug is now in our living room. Thanks. The southwestern design compliments our plaid couch nicely. I should just call you. We had a blizzard yesterday with zero visibility and 40 below zeroness. I wore snowboots to my finals today.

Congrats on the lease and the interweb, my friend!

Question: did you need to get little snow shoes or other such traction contraptions for your crutches?

Welcome back to cyber space convenience! I was sorry to read about your foot friend, I hope it is no longer the color of eggplant but more in line with your peachy complexion!
