FINALLY!!!!!!

AT&T, you do lousy business (I've been signed up for service since OCTOBER!), but I'm willing to use your internet since it's like 3/5 the price of Comcast's...


The main point is: WE HAVE THE INTERNET!!!!!!!!!

This means:
1. No more excuses as to why I'm still on "maternity leave" from writing my master's thesis
2. Brian will be home more, since he won't have to go on campus at all hours of the day and night to do the technology thing
3. I will feel like more of the AA-2nd LDS ward since they awesomely send out emails about everything
4. I'll be able to read the Relief Society lessons and blog (thank goodness for Andrea!)
5. One punctuated word: endless.com
6. wikipedia, oh how I've missed you.
7. craigslist.org, the poor college student's version of window shopping for furniture
8. Reading other people's blogs, to hear the oh-so-interesting silly details of the lives of other families.
9. And of course, sharing my own family's adventures and cute pics!

The Inter-what???

So we've decided to take the plunge and get the internet!!! YAE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here's the story: Since we're living off of student loans and savings right now, we've been going without a lot of things that aren't *necessary*. But after months of internet runs to our apartment complex office and local library (cut short by Felix's curiosity about the fans in the back of the computers and his newfound ability to climb stairs--fast), and walking around outside with our laptops trying to pick up an unsecured wireless network (note: frostbite inhibits your ability to type your password correctly), we've had enough. So we're done with Stone Age Living.
I'm super excited, and I know that having the internet in our home will make it possible for me to finish (umm...start) my thesis.
