Of course you can. Come on out to the West Coast. We don't bite.

Ah, I haven't gotten my new bill yet. Damn.
Kafer, I've actually considered the west coast - for at least part of the year. but the sunny part - not the part with the rain all the time. Gasp

pfft, false. NY gets more rainfall per year than WA. http://www.currentresults.com/Weather/US/average-annual-state-precipitation.php

AND, you have more rainy days per year than we do: http://www.currentresults.com/Weather-Extremes/US/wettest-cities.php

It's true Seattle is overcast a lot. Not any more than NE Ohio, but it is. The rain is often very light- mist or drizzle more than heavy rain. The Springs are long and the summers short, but not brutally humid like back East. Winters can get quite gloomy (that's what coffee is for), but are not so freezing cold, however they are more humid than back East so the cold tends to feel as though it sinks into your bones.

Portland is similar except that the rain is harder here, and I think the Fall seems to last a few weeks longer, which is nice. Portland also has better restaurants and less traffic congestion than Seattle.

In both places, when the sun does come out during Winter/Spring, people take full advantage and it's really quite lovely to see everyone out enjoying the sunshine. These last few days in the 70s have been a perfect example of that. Delightful!

Besides, I didn't say Seattle. I said West Coast. You want a hot uniseason, move to SoCal.

I just got this email from my Verizon contact:

I checked and we do need to have the line installed before the 5/18 cutoff.
We can’t request a due date further out than a month, so the earliest we could place this order would be 4/18 with a latest due date of 5/18.
(I recommend a due date before then if possible to avoid an issue on site and reschedule).

Let me know if you have any questions, but it looks like after 5/18 there are no exceptions to this product cutoff. Bummer!


Keep your fingers crossed that we can close before 5/18!
ugh.
