Well we finally got our internet set up. It was quite a chore, and the partial language barrier didn't help. The people at Kim's work sent me to a store to pick up the wireless router which would work with the particular isp that they use. When I got there, they said they didn't have it so they sent me to another store. So I went to the other store. They told me I had to talk to my representative, who is the person who sent me to the other store in the first place. So I went back to her a couple days later and she told me that she had just called the original store and that they had some more in stock. So I went back to that store. This time they had it, except I recognized it from the last time I had been there. So they had it all along, and even though the first guy that helped me seemed to speak ok english, something apparently was lost in the translation. Whatever, I was just happy to get the damn thing so I can get hooked up and start earning some money again. Don't get me wrong, a 2 month vacation is sweet, and having a sugar mama is awesome, but I need to get more cash so we can do all the travelling that we want to. So anyways, I take the wireless router home and start to set it up. After about 3 hours last night I give it up and decide to try again in the morning. I don't even want to get into the issues of last night. But it's working now and that's all that matters. And it seems to be pretty fast, so hopefully it'll be good enough for the transfer of the huge files I be downloading and uploading for work.
Oh yea, our Vonage is working now too so I'll be calling or emailing people with my new phone number. It's a Virginia number so it won't cost anything extra for calling to Europe. And all the calls we make to the US are free, so if you wanna talk all you gotta do is give me a jingle and I'll call you right back.
