Lemons

It's Saturday morning and I sneaked out here in the living room to get on the internet.  I am hoping that Lia don't wake up and follow me out here like she likes to do.  I feel that time on the internet in the wee hours of the morning is private and when she walks in and say "Goodmorning Mom," I sometimes feel like the romance of being alone in the quiet room with the lights off typing away is gone.  I feel deprived.  Like I cannot continue.  She starts talking to me and I try to admonish her to return to bed but no luck, "but I am not tired."  "Well, you should be sleeping, it's too early for you to be awake."  Granted, If she did not hear me tapping away at the keyboard she would have layed in bed until the sunlight stream through her windows.   But no, I am up so it must be time to get up.

Mood: Content
Listening to: NPR

It boils down to either high speed connection or Cable.  High speed connection wins.  I can live without television but I cannot live without internet connection.  Truth to be told my 'cable' connection is just clear reception of the local channels which cost eight dollars per month.  But since I am now very tired of dial up (it is soooo slow) I must seek out DSL or high speed connection like roadrunner.  But being that I am a person who believes in living within your means I am not going to put myself in more debt by just adding another expense.  I am anti-American in that respect.  So a current expense must be eliminated before I can add another.  And you guest it! It's gotta be cable.   As long as I can see PBS semi-clearly I am happy - and I can.  I do miss C-span though.
