Timing is everything

It looks like we may have switched ISPs just in time, the old one seems to be falling to pieces. Their service has been iffy for quite a while, which is why we're changing--I figured we'd do it gradually over a few months but right now I'm wondering if they'll last that long! We can still get mail through their mail server, but we can't actually log in using any of their modems (not since Friday). When Dan called their tech support, the wait was hours long and he gave up before they answered--I'm wondering now if anyone was even there. Today, member web pages disappeared, and a few hours ago I discovered that their own web page isn't available. Very annoying but it'd be more than annoying if we hadn't already signed up for another service!

Waiting for the storm

Actually it's not supposed to hit until almost noon tomorrow. As long as I don't have to drive in it I don't mind too much--there's something cozy and slightly smug about being in a warm house, looking out the window for the three feet you can actually see before there's nothing but white, listening to the wind shriek.

I'm up trying to change my email address wherever I've been using the old one up until now (like Livejournal, for example :)). I've had it for about ten years, I know I'll miss something or someone.
