Busy Signal

I don't move into my house until Tuesday, and for the past several days, I've been working getting all the necessities (i.e. electricity, gas, etc.) set up so I can move in on time. Yesterday, I went to the phone company to set up my phone line and DSL service. Now, you should probably know that my house is in Budoia, which is a little mountain community and one of the smaller communes in the province. So, it shouldn't have been a surprise when the lady told me that DSL isn't available and I have to resort to (gulp!) dial-up. After they revived me (twice), I took a deep breath and realized this is just part of living in a foreign country. I'll somehow survive, and probably learn to rely on things besides YouTube when I'm bored.
