Life without cable

With the departure of my roommate and the full load of all utility expenses on my shoulder I have decided to cut off my cable. I took in the box to their service center this past Saturday. I was thinking that TimeWarner would be slack and take their time in sending a tech out to actually turn it off..... I had previously disconnected service with TimeWarner at an old apartment and they never got around to turning the signal off. I was thinking that would happen again...... Well, I get home yesterday and there is no cable. It's hard to realize how addicted, dependent comforted we are by things in our life until they are no longer there.
