Mooooooved.
Ack.
We're in the new place, and about 50% unpacked. But in moving, you know that the first 90% of the unpacking takes about half the time. And then the final (always turns out to be) 90% takes the other half. So to speak.
No phone: the dimwit who moved out of the apartment at least 2 months ago never diconnected her phone. We have her amusing soap-opera voicemail, her bill we don't pay (hello phone calls to Tokyo!), but no phone line of our own. People who know us are getting "this number has been disconnected." Fun.
No internet: we get high-speed DSL from Aliant, who a) are currently on strike, and b) are unable to comprehend the above situation.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bartok tells me they're clueless, so I hold little hope. Luckily work is nearby, once I'm feeling less antibioticized.
No cable: the apartment's supposed to include basic cable, but basic appears to mean "two channels so fuzzy that the TV auto-blanks the screen when you're watching." I will be calling about that tomorrow.
No food: We spent a ton of money yesterday on groceries, but the kitchen still seems empty. How does that happen? It's weird.
Time to go unpack some more. If anyone's looking for us, the only way to reach us is our cell phones.

You'll get your phone eventually. :P

I stand corrected, although it is an ILEC, so yeah... they all are pretty crappy, although from my own professional experience they get better as you move from west to the east.
