Okay, now i just need to wait. My computer should arrive tomorrow, the DSL modem should arrive "this week," and the service will be turned on the 10th. Why does the part that doesn't involve anything physically moving take the longest?

Two comments about the changing in climate. I suspect that one of the reasons the building my apartment is in is slated to be replaced is the lack of insulation. Temperature-wise it is fine, but a lack of thermal insulation also results in a lack of sound insulation, and its a good thing I learned how to sleep through noise in the dorms or the buses going by outside the single pane windows might have been a problem. On the other hand, Heat and hot water aren't worrisome to the landlord and a long hot shower did wonders for my shoulders yesterday. It's nice not having to think about the size of the water heater when you're trying to decide how forceful to set the shower.

Interesting side note, being unable to get Hanneford brand salsa (in my opinion the best salsa I tried in maine, which is interesting in it's own right) I tried Casa Sanchez Salsa Roja, a brand I hadn't previously ever encountered. When I got home to try it, I found that i had mistakenly grabbed the 'hot' rather than the 'medium' I meant to, but decided to try it anyway, I would just use less. I would call it a medium. Possibly even a mild if it were to be compared with some other brands, and I don't think that I would want it to be any milder. And while it isn't the flavor I was looking for, I definitely like it in it's own way.

Anyway, I just think it's odd that the salsa had at the northern end of the east coast was hotter that the one I have here at the southern end of the west.
