The good part about switching over to fiber optics for everything is the cable guy got here early – 8:30 & was done by 1. Another good part was he wasn’t afraid of the dog, which made my life tons easier. When you have someone wandering all around your house and you have to spend the day confining the dog to different areas, that is one major pain in the ass.
The bad part is it took me a bit of fiddling before I could figure out how to hook up the DVD player. Actually I got it right the first time. I just didn’t cycle through enough of the options on the TV. Ya know that button that says, ‘source?’ Well who the heck would thing there would be 439 choices there??
The scary part: Theresa said he looked like Larry the Cable Guy:

He might have. A little. Plus he smelled of smoke. I also couldn’t help wondering why he sat out front in his truck for an hour after he was all done here. Lunch break? Smoking break? Did he have binoculars and was spying on me? I’ve got news for him if it’s that last one – there ain’t much to see around here.
If he had Larry’s money I would let him in….and let him stay and visit for awhile.
Don’t you have a school across from you? Weirdo was probably watching little kids.
Yea! I’m glad you’re back.

Nah. Didn’t seem the creeper type. Plus I’m way more interesting to spy on.
What are you doing in lieu of the DVR from the cable company? Are you loving the FIOS?

I didn’t have Time Warner’s DVR. I had Tivo. Now I have Verizon’s DVR. So far it seems pretty similar except that I can record 2 shows at the same time.
