They can't all be deep

Finally I can get broadband! Verizon to offer DSL for $14.95 a month. Which is about eight bucks less than I'm paying Earthlink for dialup. It's a pity, because Earthlink has been that rare joy, a provider so glitchless as to be almost unnoticed. But faster and affordable wins.

Also, d'oh. Oh noes, says Mer, I can't try to go to the Serenity press screening tonight because I'm having dinner with Mom. Who is a huge Firefly fan and is bringing my DVDs to dinner to give back. Yeah, it took me 12 hours to figure out the solution to this conflict. Because I am smart like rock.

Heh. S'okay, new plan is to skip out of work an hour early (with permission, I am an honest Mer), meet up with the MerMom, get on line, and pray.

Possibly while talking loudly about the breast cancer treatment that mom just had, because hey, it's true, and just because I have scruples doesn't mean I have shame. And if we don't get in, we'll have the dinner we were planning in the first place. :)

Yay, onemonthonemonthonemonth! I am planning *massive* outing, not opening night but the next evening, so the Shabbas-observant Jews can come too.
