my life lately

[serenissima]

I had a very pleasant weekend. Yesterday Chris and I went to a museum in the city, then had a mid-afternoon lunch with an acquaintance of mine from work and her partner. At home that evening, we slew monsters on the Playstation. This weekend marked our fourth year as a couple.

It's a pretty time of year. Lots of flowers are out, and the weather is in a comfortable temperature range.

My new computer arrived, but I haven't taken it out of the shipping box yet. I may or may not get to that tonight; this evening I will represent my college at a college fair. I probably won't feel like doing anything when I get home. Still contemplating whether to get cable modem or DSL or stick with dial-up for several weeks. There is only one cable modem ISP in the area, and they charge $50/mo.

Blah. Did I have something to say?

Check the DSL. SBC (at least here in Texas) charges about $30/month, which was only a few dollars more than the dial-up that I was paying for.

We've had cable at my dad's house for practically ever (okay, only since 1999, but it wasn't available in our area before then and it sure seems like forever), and then when @Home did its belly-up thing, we got all sorts of offers to switch to DSL. Dad took one and we were on DSL for a whole month before we'd decided we couldn't stand it - it was *that* much slower. 'Course, that could just be 'cause Comcast tests out all they're new stuff in our area, but y'never know. Just so you're aware.
