High speed interweb is up and running once again in my household. It only took four hours of Joe (The Squad calls him “Go”) reinstalling windows, two and a half hours of me on the phone with Dell and another two hours of Gabe loading up our back up stuff and anti-virus protection – but [...]

Not that man. The Cable Modem Man. I hope he’s not trying to call.

I have it on good authority that it is some sort of National Delurking Week. So if you read and don’t comment holla at me. You can just say hi, it doesn’t have to be clever or anything. (note to The Kaiser – Delurker-lurker is to be sung to the tune of “Turkey Lurkey”)

You have got to be freaking kidding me. There must be some sort of conspiracy. I just called Cox Communications to find out where my new cable modem was and they have no record of it shipping out. They also have no proof that it didn’t ship. Yes, that is right. It must be Moron [...]

I’ve read all those books – The Farber Method, “Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child”, and I know everyone has their own opinions on co-sleeping. I’ve heard everything from “You will crush your baby in it’s sleep” to “American women make their babies sleep in cages”. The Goon Squad slept in a co-sleeper next to our [...]

Well, I am still not really online, but thanks to my sister-in-law’s laptop and the ancient wonder of dial-up connection I can get my to 521 e-mails (I’m sure it would have been more if Earthlink hadn’t deactivated my account for a couple of days) downloaded in about three or four hours. I hope nobody [...]

Becky here. I just talked with Sarah. She’s learned that “Verizon sucks ass” (I predict tons of hits on that phrase), so she told them where to stick their DSL, and she called cable. It will be next week before she’s connected. I didn’t have the heart to tell her that it will be “cold” [...]

This is Erin (aka Queen of Spain) speaking to Sarah via cellphone. Sarah, the Goon Squad, and Gabe are alive. They don’t have any interweb yet. For some crazy reason she trusts me to log into her blog and post. Sarah says “Earthlink sucks ass.” They are waiting for their DSL stuff, and should be [...]
