Hmmmm personal goal, stop stalking Viv. lol I keep calling her late at night because I know she's awake and hardly anyone else is and I'm bored and usually have stories to tell anyways but still... must stop phoning. (however Viv I do have stories to tell LOL I really really do)
I waited at Neal's apartment for 3 hours this afternoon waiting for the Bell guy to come install the phone... no one came. Bell booked an appointment between 9am and 5pm and insisted that someone be in the apartment all day. Neal had work so myself and two of his friends here took shifts all day and no one came to install the phone. When I called Neal as I was leaving he told me they decided they didn't need to come in person to the building afterall but then had hooked up his phone number to the complete wrong line when they did it from their office. Clearly they suck. However they're able to fix it tomorrow with only the super to let them into the building so there doesn't need to be a full day of waiting again for the stupid phone company.
However I didn't mind waiting because I was WAY behind on my reading of Bleak House and I caught up over 300 pages so I have less than 100 to go to finish the book. *yay* It's a great story, I really want to buy the DVDs of the BBC mini series they're doing of it right now. I wonder how long it takes for the BBC to release their stuff on DVD? I'm assuming they will since they do seem to release most of their stuff.... and I'll get to start watching the series (albeit in the middle of the run) next Sunday because by then I'll have finished the book so it won't be ruined for me.
