oh, Cablevision. Srsly?

[lagilman]

Three days of the internet going in and out like a cat, and I finally think "ok, holiday's over, time to call them and set up an appointment to fix this." So we have an appointment for tomorrow morning.

And then this afternoon I looked over and thought 'huh. ok, cable's out, too.' So I called Cablevision...and was informed that there was a weather-related outage and they were working on it.

So...yay?

And just now, both cable and interent came back on. And I get an email from Optimum telling me "You may be experiencing a loss of Optimum service." No shit, really? And you send me an EMAIL to tell me this? *facepalm*

So it the Internet holds overnight, do I call and cancel the appointment, or do I have the repair person come out anyway, JiC? Because you KNOW the moment I cancel the appointment, the Internet will go out again... And it's already gone out again, so there's that question answered.

Meanwhile, it's Boxing Day, and in the tradition of freelancers, well, in this household, that means it's time to start sorting old files and prepping tax records. Boxes & booze are involved....


Meanwhile, it looks like all we're going to get out of this storm is a few inches of snow and a lot of rain. And wind. I am sulky.
