List Mania

Last night we moved into the freshly painted bedroom. There are a couple items still on the punch list:

  1. Hang some pictures on the bare walls.
  2. Rewire the ceiling fan so that the light is controlled by the wall switch instead of the remote control.
  3. Buy some matching curtains to replace the too dark temporary ones up now.
  4. Touch up the closet door and the back of the room door to cover the patched holes.

Our new Cingular cell phone arrived via UPS yesterday. My attempt to activate it on the web failed, so I tried the 1-800 customer service number only to be told to call back during working hours, 7AM to 9PM week days. I’ve got a couple of items still on the punch list for it too:

  1. Transfer over the dozen or so phone numbers from the soon to be crushed Tracfone.
  2. Email the dozen or so folks who have our old number and give them the new one.
  3. RTFM to see how to work some of the features.
  4. Setup my account online so I can recharge the minutes when needed.

Donna’s replacement cycle-computer also arrived yesterday. It came FedEx Ground. Good thing the packages came several hours apart, I would hate to had a fight between the two competing drivers happen in my driveway. I’ve got a couple of items still on the punch list for it as well:

  1. Enter the wheel circumference.
  2. Set the date and time.
  3. Transfer over the the year’s mileage so far (32ish)

Moved my computer desk from the front room to the middle bedroom today and only one thing remains to be done there, fix the small string of white Christmas lights that I use as stage lighting for the Fab Four. But I’ve got a list for you anyway, this is how many electrical plugs I have to accommodate for the desk:

  1. CPU Tower
  2. Monitor
  3. Speakers
  4. USB Hub
  5. Flatbed Scanner
  6. Slide/Film Scanner
  7. Desk Lamp
  8. Cordless Headphones Base
  9. Printer
  10. Camera Dock
  11. Wireless Router
  12. Cable Modem
  13. Cell Phone Charger
  14. Phew!

    Started down, went up, still up.
