I have slain the DSL Beastie.....

and I won't bore you with the details, but waiting for your high speed internet sucks. Big time. Finally got it all together tonight, after a couple glasses of wine and a call to the support center to ask what the required sacrifice was and to which diety it was to be made. (I think I scared him). But it worked, and I have DSL.

Why is this important? Well because the dial up decided last week that my blog was inappropriate or something (has it been reading my blog?), and wouldn't let me access it.

Orientation was today. I am so excited and a bit scared to be starting my new job. I have to keep telling myself that I am a nurse, not a student. So the big question is - when do I get to stop feeling like a student? My first day on the floor is Wednesday. I'll let you know how it goes.

On the knitting front, the swatching went well, and I think this sweater might work. Probably won't finish in time to compete fully in the World Cup. I forgot about the whole NCLEX thingy. It's a bit more important than the sweater right now, being my licsensure and all.

Congrats on graduating and your new job! I'm impressed that you are doing all of this and taking on the Knitting World Cup! See you on the virtual field (I'll be the one tripping over the yarn!)

I have slain the DSL Beastie..... is an interesting read. I've been reading a ton more blogs and blogging myself much more now that I have at&t broadband. at&t broadband sure makes running a blog alot faster, you should swing by my site sometime and see if you can get DSL too now that it's cheaper than dialup ($12.99 a month!) WOO HOO!
