Jan. 5th, 2010 06:41 pmWell, that's over and done with. The move went off without a hitch -- if you discount the frigid temperatures and jimmy-jacking of a sofa over a two-story balcony rail -- and Todd and I are mostly, if not entirely, moved in. The new place is fantastic! It's really starting to feel like home. Obviously we had cable and internet installed today. We had to finesse the TiVo for a while (and we'll be paying a bit more for a "basic" cable package), but I'm really happy with
1) The speed of the my internet connection, and,
2) The fact that I now have a season pass to both New Yankee Workshop and Spongebob Squarepants.
Classes start tomorrow. 'Not a moment too soon, in my opinion. Todd and I have been experiencing a little of the old timey cabin fever around here. Without cable or internet to occupy ourselves, we've had to make some accommodations with our time -- specifically, what the hell we were going to do with it. Over the last two days, I've watched all three extended editions of The Lord of the Rings, one series of the British Office, and all the Mythbusters we had already stored on the TiVo. I'm really looking forward to a little intellectual stimulation at this point.
I watched the second half of "The End Of Time" with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
another_myself last night. I didn't cry, like I thought I might, but my eyes weren't exactly dry at the end, either. I'm still not sure what happened (maybe I need my own Untempered Schism to go back and find out), but I'm really optimistic about Matt Smith's turn as the Doctor. The Special didn't "put my off my feed," I mean. To me, Ten will always be "my Doctor," but I'm excited to see what this new, mushy-faced kid can do.
Pictures of the new place are forthcoming. Would anyone be interested in seeing them?
