I won’t be posting much at all in the next following days for a very powerful reason: We’re moving to a new house. That includes of course packing all the stuff, transporting it, unpacking it, arranging it nicely and falling over from exhaustion.

This also includes having to deal with changing our internet provider. Unfortunately I could only choose between Comcast or AT&T for my cable/dsl needs, which is the same as saying “Would you rather be stabbed in the back or in the chest?”. Marginally, I decided to go with AT&T, but I have no idea when I’ll have internet at the new place.

The good news is I’ll finally be able to rejoin the ranks of those having decent internet. 6 meg pipe and better latency, hopefully. There’s just that matter of… yeah… when, you know, it will be installed and all.

At any rate, we’re very, very happy with our new home (it will be our first time as homeowners). I’m just dreading the actual “move your stuff” phase.

See you all soon. Fair winds, good pings, nice drops, great times.

    Congratulations and good luck! Remember, there is nothing much better than playing a video game when there is work that needs to be done around the house. ~Ethic, revised from a Joe Ryan quote

    You are not helping.

  3. We’ve been debating picking up the ATT pipe, it’s just so slow though in comparison to our speedy Comcast…

    The debate is more “should we have both?”
    We’re nerdy enough to know how to combine the 2 for max speed, but it might be overkill.

  4. I just wanna make it through the actual move without any hernias, concussions, broken bones or heart attacks. I’ll worry about the internet when I can exhale again.

  5. I’ll be going through a move into an house soon (hopefully 2 months, assuming no FURTHER delays with the builder), and yea, not looking forward to the actual move, but getting out of an apt will be very nice. Good luck on your move, hope all goes well!

  6. Moved last year myself, after being in a house for seven years, I decided to hire a mover. It wasn’t the best money I’ve ever spent, but it was very worthwhile.

    Good luck.
