holllllllyyyyyy fuck. that was a long time without internet.
I blame the weekend, memorial day, and a lack of a credit card/ credit history as the culprits. Had I not had to be in-person and drive all the way to DC last Friday inorder to setup an account with my apartment's gas company, Washington Gas, because I lacked a credit history and thus required to provide proof of identity... I could have taken care of getting internet installed.
Having to go to food/coffee shops with free wifi sucked because I felt it was only proper to at least buy something (sometimes I just bought a newspaper... even then I spent hours in there using their wifi). And those neighbors I could steal WiFi from if I wanted to had weak signal strengths.
At least I have it now. Although, I'm finding that I don't spend much time on the computer... I have so much other shit to do- work, cook dinner, run errands, clean, etc. It sucks.
