Out of Order

Jan 05, 2008 11:11

Right now, instead of writing about the wonderful night out with 2teensmom and a few comedians (yes, real comedians), I'm going to talk about right now.

Kind of.

My cable box has been non-functional since about 30 January. The cable itself works. I know this because I can watch things just fine if they don't run through the box.

Today is the first day that Comcast and I could both show up at my apartment at the same time.

When I made the appointment, I opted for the early block--8 a.m. to 11 a.m.

I went to bed at about 5:30 a.m.

Yeah, I know, a gamble if there ever was one.

I was awakened by a call at 8:59 a.m. from the Comcast tech who was going to be coming out. "Are you still experiencing a fuzzy picture on your cable?" "No, I'm experiencing no picture. I'm pretty sure the box is bad." "Oh. Well, you're my second appointment so I should be there within the hour."

And so, I dragged my sleep-deprived ass out of bed.

It's now quarter after eleven.

Guess who hasn't shown up yet.

Or called.

Yeah.
