Mark it on the calendar!

News flash!!! Our landlord stopped by to pick up our application for telephone service. (We had to fill it out a second time because we used the "wrong type of paper"). It took them a week to figure this out and get us the "right paper", but the wheels are in motion. It will take them 10 days to hook us up, so I'm starting the countdown. I've been told that March 29th is the date for the TV to be hooked up and (the big one) April 4th... CURTAINS!!! And to think I was naive enough to think we'd have this all taken care of a week or two after we moved here. "Toto, I don't think we're in America anymore..."
