TV installation woes 

Today didn't go exactly as planned. The cable guy was supposed to show up between 10 a.m. and noon. No doubt you can see where this is going. He's a cable guy — of course he didn't show up on time. I called Charter Communications around 12:30 to let then know that I was still waiting. They said they'd send someone out soon. Someone did indeed arrive soon. However, when he got to the house, he informed me that my neighborhood is serviced by Time Warner Cable, not Charter. Arg! Why couldn't the customer service people have told us that a week ago when we ordered the service?

On the plus side, while I was waiting for the cable guy, I finally finished reading Left Behind. Hopefully now I can move on to a good  book.
