Ric called Bell South today and arranged to have the line cancelled at the end of the month.
Therefore, I am forced to bid adieu, after the 31st, to the internet.
I will be back mon cherie, and with a much better ISP I am sure.
If it does take a month or two, because convincing Ric I am able to afford it may take a while, I will not neglect my blog...
I have copied the entire blog so far and will maintain it "offline" on my hard drive until I can upload the saved posts once re-established.
I also have the Job Center close to home which allows unlimited internet access on their state-of-the-art computers. It is intended to use for job searches but they don't monitor use and you can easily use their system for general leisure access. I've done it many times before.
But this new development is one more reason why I think it may be time to move on. If the job I am now commited to is great, I will be making enough to look to living on my own again. If it is not, then it may be time to look to living in less expensive digs. Either way, I think my days living with Ric are near the end. And this time, it will likely be the end of our friendship as well. The way I feel lately....eh, no big loss. Certainly other friends like John Chiafalo, Claudia and Rich, Chris Porter, Michelle, Alicison and Wayne have meant more to me yet they are now defunct...how can Ric measure up?
Time will tell, but lately I feel I am embarking on a new plateau. And disconnecting from the oddity of the pod person formally known as Ric may be a nessessary step in gaining ground.
