My Heart Beats On

Hey folks. Just a quick post to tell you that I'm still alive and well. Well, alive. It's been murder trying to get anything done on a 56k connection, so instead of running into that wall of frustration night after night, I get online, check my e-mail, and disconnect. The good news is that DSL is supposed to be installed on the 11th. One more week of this and I'd go completely crazy. I can't wait to get back into my daily / nightly routine. I miss posting goofy crap. I miss writing Lockergnome issues. I miss responding to e-mails. I'm out of the loop, and I don't like it. Not one bit. No sir. Besides, I've got to show you how nice this place is shaping up! We've got a few more boxes to move, but we're 99% there.

In fact, we're selling some items: Sofa cover (cream colored, barely used);
Plastic chair mat (to place over a carpet);
Two tall, black CD towers (one wire, one metal);
CD caddy (holds 100+ CDs, great for underbed storage);
Various power strips & extension cords;
Dog cage (perfect for smaller dogs);
Bodum Santos coffee machine (trying to cut down);
Wire-neck desk lamp (bulb included!);
Large stepladder;
Floor chair (light blue cushion);
omputer system (800MHz PIII, etc.);
VHS-C Camcorder (JVC GR-AXM270 with 5 blank tapes). I'll hopefully upload some pictures at work tomorrow. If you live in the Bay area, let's talk. I gotta move this stuff out of here. Prices weren't mentioned because I'm willing to dicker.

And if you know of a certified electrician who lives in the area, I need him or her ASAP. There are still a few outlets in this apartment which aren't up to code, and I'll be damned if I'm fixing them myself. BRRRRRRRRZP!

It's good to see everything is coming along well, Chris. Dial-up is murder..isn't it. Have fun.

Come back to us soon.

Cutting down on coffee?!?!?!?!?!
Nooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Caffeine!
I hope to never have to use dial-up again.

Man… I don't remember the last time I used a dialup. It's been so long…

“$4,000 for the pretty wife and dog!”
“SOLD!”
Just kidding. ;oj

Stephen and I have been looking for a good sofa cover – only thing is, we don't live nearby. We can send you a check to also cover costs of shipping if you're willing… let me know!

What is dial-up? It's been so long. I'm not sure I even want to relate to what you are going through. Hope to see you back in full operations soon Chris. And, don't give up on caffeine! I hear they are going to make it one of the required food groups…

Caffiene in a pinch = Chocolate covered Expresso Beans. Munch on 2 and you're wired for a couple hours.

LOL! ;D Sorry Chris.. I really dont mean to laugh at you.. hehehe.. hahaha.. (snicker)..;p~~~ I get everything done on dialup.. AND, at that, a pretty slow connection most of the time (bad phone lines I think). Dial up is my world. I dont KNOW any better!! ;)
