disconnect

in an attempt to:

A - save some cash

B - get more HD channels

and C - get faster internets

we're going to be switching from directv and sonic.net to at&t uverse for all. this means two semi-interesting things will occur:

1 - i will now have four bills a month; netflix, rent, car payment and cellphonehomephoneinternettelevision.

2 - we'll be without internet for a week as apparently there is some insane federal law that you can't have DSL when you order new DSL. seriously, who wrote that brilliant bit of inconvenience? no halo, no IM, no LOLcats, no email, no flickr, no blogging, no checking the weather in estonia from home for a WHOLE WEEK.

also of note:

• i love lists.

Ahem, about the truck full of dirt on flickr, I do have a backyard with flowers, etc., too. i am doing my part to keep the planet green.

as an urban dweller, i find joy in seeing organic life pushing through our man-made artifice.
