MOVING STILL!!!
Well, I have returned for the moment. We should be getting a cable modem hooked up sometime in the forseeable future, but for now I am winging it. The new place looks nice, boxes are being unpacked, and furniture is slowly but surely organizing itself into some semblance of order. The only bad thing is that my office doesn’t have a phone hook-up, and the closest line is upstairs. Hopefully all of these problems will go away once the cable modem gets installed.
In any event, it was nice to be disconnected from the world for four days or so. The world hasn’t changed all that much, but it is so relieving to be away from the constant feed of information. Kinda like when you go on a hiking trip for a week or so and you come back without knowing what has been going on. Life is much simpler when you are staring at the trail and the trees. Of course, I was staring at boxes and more boxes, but you get the general idea.
