... This is going to take some getting used to. I have joined the rest of the wankers and got a web capable phone. So now I am posting to LJ from a phone while waiting for Stacey at the hardware store.

We have been working on the house since last night. Stacey put. In a garbage disposal and is nearly done installing the dishwasher. I have been working on cutting a hole in a perfectly good wall to put in the exhaust for an above the range microwave. This would not normally be a huge challenge but the wall the is a half inch of granite, drywall, and then a half. Inch of wood panelling (and that is just the inside. O_o.

I also spent a fair chunk of time on the roof today cleaning out gutters, sweeping, and removing moss. I don't think anyone had done that in years. Tons of work left to do. Most of the terror has worn off though. :)

Guess that's all for now.

Ahhhh, the joys of home-ownership, and D-I-Y projects! At least you two are pretty handy, and not afraid of the challenge. Congratulations again on your new home, it's awesome to see things coming together for you!

BTW, still waiting for that updated Snail-Mail address... :)

We just got our first web-capable phones in the last month, too. However, I have only gone as far as enabling mobile email and texting because I haven't been able to swallow the idea of spending an extra $1K/year for an unlimited data plan. 250 text messages per month, for two people, bumps up our plan another $120/year and the mobile email $60/year for just one person. As much as I'd like to be able to look up maps, read the news, and post to LJ from my phone, I can't justify the price-gouging.

Whoa, what cell company do you have? That's a crazy insane price for data. I'm not even paying that much for a dedicated cellular modem.

Verizon Family Plan. 1K minutes/month, 500 text msgs/month, and 60 MB of internet/month = $120/month = $1440/year.

If I wanted to break it out into separate talk/text & data plans, Talk/text = $150/month, unlimited data for both lines = $60/month. Total: $2520/year.

That's before all the taxes and surcharges.

The Sprint Everything Data Family plan offers 2 lines, 1500 shared minutes, free calling to any mobile phone regardless of carrier, unlimited text, data and Direct Connect, GPS navigation, TV and Blackberry services for $130 a month (before taxes and fees).

That's comparable to the Verizon plan. I'm never going to use 1000 minutes or 500 text messages in a month, so they might as well be unlimited. Not interested in Direct Connect, GPS navigation, TV or Blackberry services.

Very cool, though! Please let me know if you need grunt labor; I'm still out of work.

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3240/2984064708_891eb2109f.jpg?v=0 is the best picture I could find of this online, yet it doesn't even begin to capture the sheer overdetailed, overly bright awesomeness of the original. I wanted to point it out to you anyway.
