Moving hell: almost finished!

[algeh]

I've been offline for a week or so in Moving Hell. I just got my computer set back up today.

Done:

• Caught up on LJ friends page
  
• Caught up on two other blogs
  
• Caught up on webmaster, tutoring, and job-hunt email accounts
  
• Caught up on Ubuntu updates (which is SO MUCH FASTER with broadband internet - it is a whole new kind of thing to be doing now)
  

Not Done:

• Check personal email
  
• Check DW friends page
  
• Check DamnPortlanders
  
• Change address with post office
  
• Pay student loan
  
• Make DW/LJ flocked posts updating address and phone numbers
  
• Change address with dial-up ISP
  
• Change address with college I do not have loans with
  
• Change address with whatever other online places I've told where I live for some reason
  
• Check other blogs I read
  
• Get Flash working now that I have broadband
  
• Find new time wasting things to do on the internet that involve images and/or videos
  
• Play FreeCiv for weeks on end while forgetting to shower, let alone job hunt
  

Some of those things might not get done. We'll see which!

(Now I have to go throw more random possessions in the van and hope that the Carpet Vacuuming Elves will visit in the night.)

...you were doing Ubuntu updates over dialup? Wow.

Yeah, it took a special kind of obsessive interest in having an up-to-date OS to update at least a few times a week and leave downloads running while I slept or left the house all day. Now it's something that can just sort of magically happen for a few minutes while I'm using the computer.
