Completely connected

My (our - Sarah and I) friend is here visiting - he is actually moving up here to Tacoma. Tonight we went to bestbuy and got a router and he hooked it up for us. So now I am completely connected to the internet and our connection is secure.
Keith if I had read your message earlier I probably would have taken you up on it but oh well... gotta spend my money on something I guess. :)

Now I can spend countless hours on my laptop where ever I want (with in range). I can waste time on the computer while watching tv even.

It is past my bedtime - but wanted to share my good news.

Post Super Bowl Depression

So most people in Seattle are probably getting over their post Super Bowl depression. I had some and I know I did my share of yelling during the game (both at the players to 'go' and the refs to 'stop'). Was fun to watch it with a bunch of people all routing for the Hawks (although I know one is really a Patriots fan but they suck so...). I say they will do it next year. Matt Hasselbeck said he will do whatever it takes. Hopefully the owner Paul Allen will do the right thing about keeping key players. I'm sure he has enough money to keep them... Alexander for one, and Jurevicius another. There are a couple others but I'd be sad to see them go. My friend Melissa (with whom I watched most of the games with this season) and I want to get Tubbs jerseys. He's a defensive tackle - we mostly like him because of his name. I just looked at his stats and realized that I'm older than him. That doesn't make me feel young. :P

We have internet although my computer has yet to be connected - my roommate has a router but am thinking about getting a wireless one - any one have any input?

Other than that I have been working. Gotta keep the money coming in :). Starting in March - at latest the 11th I'm going to be starting at 7 rather than 7:30. A lot of the work is in the afternoon and since in the winter I don't want to work late on Fridays because of the Sabbath I will have the early morning shift. I think this will work out nicer. I think the traffic going both to and from work will be a bit lighter. I have yet to find out for sure. Although I did leave a bit early on Monday (or was it Tuesday?) to see if it made a difference (I think it did). Will eventually see if leaving 1/2 hour earlier will make a difference in my commute time going home. I am guessing it will. I am also guessing I will only have to leave 15 minutes earlier than I do now because when I leave on time I get to work ~15 minutes early. I'm turning into an early bird like my dad but I think if I had my choice I'd be a night owl like my mom. Go figure.
