All Systems Go

Oh sweet, sweet connection! How I've missed you!! My internet is up and running. It took a while. I tried to connect at 5:30, but as to be expected "sites were down and updating" and it's was a painful 5 hours before things were finally up and running. I think they do it on purpose... But luckily I had the help of Tal to distract me. We hung curtains up in the bedroom so the morning sun (lovely as it is) won't wake me a 6 am anymore. But sadly, after Tal was gone I resorted into to my anxious hunched state pushing and prodding for my internet to work while growling "REFRESH DAMMIT!" I soon gave up and called the 800 number and played dumb so they guy on the other line would just do it for me. And luckily it only has to be done once and then works on all computers. This event has brought to my attention the lack of jack in the extra room. Fortunately installer guy was nice enough to leave a temporary solution until I figure out how to install one:
Holy mutha! That's a lot of cord! I think I could actually feed this thing all the way down to the far end of the garage if I really felt the need! But it will do for now until a better solution is available.
