So I just moved into the new place today. As you may be able to tell from my previous post, I’m not buying a place, but renting instead. I’m running into most of the usual surprises you move into a new place. Since I relocated everything I own, the moving company isn’t coming until tomorrow at the earliest. That means no lights in much of the house or a bed. There’s no trash barrel as well.
Of course without a TV, I can’t get cable installed and that means not only no cable TV, but I have to piggyback on other people’s Internet connections. I figured there might be a million people with open networks being in an apartment complex in Silicon Valley, but oddly there’s just the one. I hope that borrowing someone else’s Internet connection doesn’t make me a bad person. It’s just temporary.
definitely not a theif… they must want to share it if its not protected :)
go without cable for a few months and read instead! it will change your life. TV is overrated!
well, people have been prosecuted for it!
I can’t go without my Red Sox and Patriots! Wait, I have Slingbox set up back home with that.
I spend many hours each day reading on the web, and probably only a couple of hours watching TV. I couldn’t really switch to more reading. And getting rid of the cable would be something my fiancee would have to agree to as well and I don’t see that happening.
