Somebody from Windstream left a note on my door that said my house is outside the 3 mbps area and I won't be able to receive that speed.
Of course.
The heat/air guy stopped by tonight to go over his estimate. What I thought would take 20 minutes took twice that because he was determined to be thorough in explaining the load calculation, cost savings according to the gas company and the unit options, including a couple of add-ons (humidifier and a filter upgrade) that I had already said I wasn't interested in.
Tammy had offered to bring Chinese food and Cooper over, and because I incorrectly estimated how long the presentation would take, they arrived while the guy was still here. She had Cooper on a leash and kept him from getting to me in the dining room, but I could see him pulling to get closer and wagging his tail. He isn't a big wagger -- not like a lot of dogs anyway; maybe it's because his tail curls and is therefore less waggable -- so it was extra cute and I had to force myself not to look at him so I wouldn't laugh. I love that little dog.
I've done the math now, and this estimate is the lowest but only by $500.
Hmm. . . $500. . .I wonder if that's the cost of a root canal.
