Rental Schmental

My landlord called today to check up on the new faucet he installed because the last one leaked. I mustered up all the courage I had to explain to him how by not knowing what was expected during the rental I found it to be very awkward, uncomfortable and an invasion of our privacy. He was extremely apologetic and explained to me his method as well as why he does it. I guess its less to look at us and more to fix broken thing that just happen in a house. Still, I don't think I will handle much more than a year of this guy.

Then there is the Internet situation. Lebec finally got dial up. However the canyon we live in is only accessible to it near the beginning of the homes not up here near the top. I don't know what to do. Do we get another phone line for our dial up and tough out the rest of our time here or do we pay a fortune for satellite Internet. I know that I will have high speed in Lockwood Valley. So what do we do? Some of you empathise with our mourning of all things highspeed and some of you probably don't understand the fuss. But how I love to use the Internet at my in laws just because it is fast.
