No Cable

In order to put the siding on the house, they have to remove some of the utilities that are affixed to the backside.

Comcast apparently refuses to let it just dangle (and I think we all know how painful that can be). They claim they have to disconnect the cable then reconnected after the siding is in place. I have no idea why.

The end result is that we probably won't have cable for next few days starting Tuesday morning. The TV I can probably live without for now, but it also means no cable modem! And that, my friends really cheeses me off.

However, there is a small sliver lining. I signed up with AOHeLL on my notebook a short while ago. No, I haven't lost my mind, it was included 6 months free with my Dell purchase. I just happened to activate it. So I'll have dial-up over the duration of the cable interruption. A step backwards into the stone age to be sure, but at least I can access all my emails from there if necessary.

I can't believe how cut off I already feel.

It's medieval.
