Shiny New Toy
FINALLY! After digging two ditches, laying pipes, reapeatedly calling, threatening, cajoling, and begging the phone company for two months, I finally have a second phone line. So no more disconnecting every so often and leaving the phone free for a while to see if someone's is trying to call me, or if I wanted to make a call, or whatever. The only trick now is for the phone company to get of their ass and give me a dial tone. They told me tomorrow, but you know the phone company. The only workers who work slower than a utilities company is goverment employees. Especially the DMV. Ugh.
Oh, and a dog update: I'm so happy with my dog today. I just reaffirmed how smart that dog is, unless food or his dick gets in the way, of course. When I went to the kitchen to get something this evening, he came over to me and when I looked at him, pointed in the other direction, went a little and look back, to show me that I should follow him. And when I did, he stopped right before his water bowl, and pointed to it with his snout, and when I looked, it was empty. Wow. So I filled it, and he was so thirsty, drank most of the bowl, so I refilled it again just to make sure. He did this to me three times already. Usually I'm good about filling his water, but got too excited about the new phone line today.
