Internet Frustrations! (rant-tastic)

It has now been one month since the Internet guys over at Acetekk said they would come out and hook us up...they still haven't. We were told they would definitely be in our neighborhood on Friday. They better be hooking us up while in my neighborhood.

The weather gods have turned their smiles into frowns. +30 degrees last week, -26 degrees today. The temperature changes here are more than extreme here...I can't take this anymore. Two more summers to go, then I'm out of here.

On a different note, we have an ACO (Arctic Chamber Orchestra) concert Saturday at 8. I'll be happy for it to be over simply for the fact that there are just too many rehearsals packed into 2 weeks. I'm ready to get back to one a week with the FSO (Fairbanks Symphony Orchestra) next week. We have Giora Schmidt coming up for our next FSO concert. If you don't know who he is check out the video of him playing the Kreisler Recitative and Scherzo for solo violin on You-Tube. Come to the concert. He'll be playing the Brahms Concerto in D.

The ACO concert will be good as well, we have Massimo Mercelli who came all the way from Italy to play the flute with us.

On yet a different note, we had our first ultrasound last week and everything looked great. There is only one baby in there (**few**) and it is very active. It wouldn't stop moving the whole time the doctor was probing. Less than a month until we get to find out if its a boy or a girl. I'll keep you updated.
