I have drafted this post three times.
Each time was getting wittier and wittier.
And each time the computer spontaneously shut down mid type without warning or autosave.
Now I'm not sure what to to say.
The former posts were this in a nutshell:
Still no satellite television. In an a make-believe world the DirtBoys will return today and fix it for a final time today. We may have the ability to watch American television (or the AFN version) returned to us after 3 weeks without. This will be the 6th attempt, 3rd satellite and 7th repair attempt while we are counting.
The MIL and I are in high doubts. We have resigned ourselves to watching Stargate SG-1 in sequential order from Seasons 1 to 10. By Season 4 I will probably be over it and she will probably be so addicted that her WoW friends will forget her account name and her Elite status. Hopefully it also helps her pull through her nicotine withdrawals.
Our priority ranking to have the repairs done in their eyes is somewhere between dishes and laundry and definitely at the bottom of their list, regardless of what they say. Oh the joys of being a deployed spouse who finally actually requests help and instead discovers it's like asking a toddler to recite a successful rocket science equation. No dice.
I would cross link all the recent failures for the 3rd time but I'm in doubt this post will actually post and don't want to jinx my luck.
So it's off to do some more shopping. Blessed Ramadan is allowing our soldiers, airman and the like a health break for August. They need more than a month but we'll take what we can get.
