I've recently graduated from college and now I'm out on my mothafuckin own. As I just moved into my new place, I went into the deal knowing I probably wouldn't have such modern amenities as television and internet service. My my, I called the company a week before I moved in and even then the earliest install date was for three weeks away. Aye mie! But I fucking did it anyway because it's AT&T U-Verse and therefore amazing.
I have no idea if any of you guys got screwed by hurricane Ike this summer but somehow its lame-ass tropical depression moved its way up to Ohio and just raped the shit out of everything. That was on Sunday. I work nights and I get home around Conan O'Clock, so coming home to a completely dark and relatively new apartment complex blew ass pretty hard. Around Wednesday, when I spent the whole day reading The God Delusion, I started to wonder if the power would be back before Saturday.
Late Wednesday the Electricity company put out a map of where and when people should be getting service back. I was supposed to have it back Thursday, so I wasn't super psyched to come home to disappointment. Nothin' Friday either.
Friday I call AT&T: "Do you have to have electricity to get uverse installed? Yeah? Maybe you could just bring the stuff here and I could hook it up later? No? Shit. Reschedule plz." Bittersweetly, the power came back on five hours or so after my scheduled install time.
So here we are a week and a half after that conversation. The internet is as glorious as I remember it. I've already downloaded a ton of new albums (WOAH THE NEW MGMT IS FUCKING GOOD) and looked at all my bookmarks and webcomics and Googled a nearly pizza place's number and looked at a ton of porn and checked my email and downloaded the system updates. Internet!
Hell, Conan is ON television right now but I'm DVRing it because I can. OH MAN I just remembered I did the VP debate too and I hope Joe Biden literally raped that gorgeous but unqualified piece of eye candy.
Anyway I think two rape jokes is as far as I'll go in any single post, so it's off to the debates. Godspeed, fellow Forkers.
