10 blissful hours of sleep. Uninterrupted sleep. Ah, the joy that is going to bed early and getting up late. :) I am actually NOT feeling like I’ve been run over by a truck this morning, and that’s a wonderful thing.
Much to do today, marketing, PetCo, get mail at my place, start up the thank you notes, get some laundry done, pickup & vacuuming, at least start a preliminary list of things to do to sell my house, and possibly hop over to the computer show if time allows. Also need to check in with grandma this evening, and continue the barrage of “You’re coming for Christmas, dammit, that hasn’t changed!”
There are certain things I am consciously letting slide, like getting the utilities switched over here. Virginia Power doesn’t give a rat’s ass whose name is on the bill as long as they get paid, so I am not even going to worry about switching those types of things over until later. The one thing I do need to do is call Verizon and see if we can get the phone switched over to my name and still keep the same phone number - it would be easier for everyone if the house number didn’t change, and also once I get the phone line in my name I can get DSL activated here. (And I just checked, we *can* get DSL here, woot!) I had been planning on calling Verizon today because they *used* to have Saturday customer service hours, but looking at the bill, apparently that is a thing of the past.
At least next week I’m on 11-8 so I’ll have time in the mornings for making phone calls.
At some point I do need to bring my computer over here and just bite the bullet and use dialup until I can get the DSL switched over. It’s weird not having *my* computer here. (And there is that very bad voice in my head going, “Now would be the perfect time to get a wireless router and laptop and use the old computer as a server or something…)
I realized that pretty much all my posts lately have been long lists of things to do. Boring, but it does give me some illusion that I am somewhat in control of the situation. HAHAHAHAHA! Funny how everyone’s brain decides to deal with things differently. My brain consistently goes with “getting things done that need to be done is the best therapy”… Keeping occupied keeps me in a better headspace it seems.
I have also gotten totally re-hooked on cable. You can bet I paid the cable bill within minutes of it’s arrival yesterday. OMG, so much wonderful brain rot on the telly.
