Humidity, Moving, and Blogs

It is humid up here. Just enough that it is slightly annoying, but nothing compared to Arkansas. The only drawback? Non-central cooling. I have 2 "window" units in my bedrooms, but nothing centralized. So I've been having difficulty getting the cool air out to the main living area.. where my TV, computer, Jacuzzi.. etc are. So that is slightly annoying. But I still prefer the summers up here to Arkansas. Now if the winters would just be more like Arkansas winter.. that would be very nice.

Almost done moving our company to the new location. Shower should be going in this weekend which I'm very excited about. Showering at work... which will be necessary after riding in.. and hitting the pool along the way. Or running at lunch around the random paved path which encircles the development behind our building. All these nice small things coming together. Internet is still not installed... but everything else is coming along.

Started up a new blog which is, hopefully, going to track progress as myself, Michael, and Darren prepare to do an Ironman in 2009. Just a place to post what we are doing for workouts, push each other... ok, encourage each other.. etc. Michael and Darren are new to blogging so we'll see how it goes. I know it'll help me get up early and stop skipping workouts. Damn competitiveness.

Ok, I'm off.. gotta load up a few more things and head over to the new place.. again.

I hate phone companies

So I'm helping set up the new phone system at our new office location. I'm on the phone with AT&T. They tell me my new location has an option for DSL at twice the speed we currently have, for FIVE dollars less. I'm was stoked. Told them that is what I wanted.

This was 3 weeks ago by the way.

Yesterday I received word that our new location is too far away from the "central office" to have DSL. So the only option for high speed internet through AT&T is a T1 line... for $300 or more.

Lovely.
