Well, ATT came yesterday and did the physical install of the cable connection to the wall at the computer desk. I headed out for work after that, stopping by Infant Jesus School along the way to drop off one last thing that their front office needed regarding Claire's medical history. After work I swung by the house and picked up the family to go to the YMCA. Michelle and I had another great step class with Joanne. She has a new move she's trying to get the class to get used to: the "funk-adelic mombo". It's a pretty neat 16 count move.
We got the kids down to bed shortly after class. I then finished the installation of the cable modem service. There's software to install, calls to make to customer support to digitally enable the service, etc. It took about an hour, but at least 20 minutes of that was being on hold with customer support. After that the connection was made and for the first time I was online without using a phone line. I cleared Internet Explorer's disk cache so that I could see what the service could really do without the browser "cheating" and fetching things from it's hard disk. It was pretty amazing. It reminded me of the high speed connection we have at work. Shweet! (sic)
I'm gonna finish up for now. It's time to get ready for work. Three out of four children are awake. There's no more time for typing.
