Open Thread: Moving Is Hell

We finally have our Internet working after a pretty hard move.

The baby made our packing take longer than had in our schedule. Before him, I think our schedule would've been tough, but just doable with some sleep to spare. As it was, we ended up moving 20% of our stuff ourselves after the movers had gone. Despite missing alot of sleep. So it seemed like forever before we finally finished cleaning the old place. It's done now.

We're pretty happy with the place, though.

The Internet was messed up for six days because Time-Warner makes it hard to have simultaneous cable connections, which is fine for TV, but terrible for Internet connectivity. We Internet types hate what we call "Flag Days", where everything moves at once, and it takes lots of luck to get everything working then. I'd rather've had a week or so of overlap - paying for both connections would be worth it in my mind.

The kid doesn't yet have those upper front teeth that're aching, but he can say "Mama" and "Dada," and today showed he knows which of us is which.
