cable part 2, and the rest
so, cable guy left after 2 hours, removing our booster, changing the ends on all our cables, and repairing some squirrel damage at the pole, and declaring everything fine, and still having the boxes reboot, he ended up not being confident he'd solved the problem and replaced the boxes anyway.
so now, we have new style boxes, 2/3 the size of the old ones, if that. maybe this different model cable box will not give us so much trouble. i'm hopeful only because the old ones were all the same model.
we'll see.
we ended up going to upper arlington/hilliard to get some free hostas from one of nala's coworkers. then to feast on the dragon, west broad target, jacks aquaria, and then to the pickettage to drop off some mp3 cds for their long car trip to nyc this weekend.
i cant wait for dry weather.

I picture you sitting on the couch like it was a Hospital waiting room, breath baited as you wait for him to come back - in scrubs, of course - remove his mask and say "You will be able to tape 'Howard Stern' tonight" so you can then sob and release all the tension and dread you've been building up... as you sat there, reflecting on all the good times you've had with the cable... while Kate Bush's "This Woman's Work" plays in the background, just like that scene in "She's Having A Baby."
