Tuesday

It's funny when you rely upon something so much that you miss it and get frusterated when it's gone. I hadn't had the internet for days in my new place and I'd tried practially everything, I called tech support for apple and AT&T, and everybody kept telling me it was an incorrect password. But it couldn't have been, because my roommate and people we share the router with all use the password to get online. Anyways after a few calls back to tech support, I thought I was going to have to buy a router for myself somehow, and then finally, one random tech support guy gave us the answer we were looking for. It worked once we plugged in an extra to make mac compliant with a router shared with PCs. It still doesn't make any sense to me, but it works! Yay internet!

So yesterday, that's what I did. I figured out how to get internet, met my neighbors- who happen to be Carrie's sister and boyfriend. They look a lot alike and they're both cute and fun. Our other neighbor, to the north, has let their alarm ring for an hour, two days in a row. Carrie said he left her a nasty note on her car once, when he could have just come talked to her, so now he has solicited a nasty note of his own. For the most part the neighborhood actually is quiet. There is a new bar/club at the end of our road on Santa Monica which sometimes brings the occassional group of rowdy people walking by, but parking is permit only, to deter people from using neighborhood streets.

Last night after gaining my much beloved internet connection I watched the season premier of Ugly Betty online. For some reason I absolutely love that show. Then Carrie got home and we took a trip to a closer Trader Joes than the one I found previously. Then I don't really remember what I did, I think I snacked, then I decided to read and go to bed. So far, my days doing my own thing are much less eventful than the days spent with my parents. Things will pick up once I start classes.

I watched Ugly Betty too... it was the first time I'd ever seen it, but I liked it.

I'm glad to see you're doing well and adjusting to everything. You sound positive and that makes me happy.
