cedar_groveWhy is it that when you get workmen in to do a job they always screw up something else? They unplugged the modem so that they could plug in their radio... to have music... and maybe the power tools they were using, though I didn't see much evidence of that when I went in to find out why my computer wouldn't connect to the internet...
Finally they buggered off, I turned on the modem, /nothing/. It sat there telling me it was receiving downstream communication, but two way...? Nope. Was it ready even... Nope.
Half an hour, it took, for the damn modem to reinitialise itself. Half an hour! On Monday they better plug in some place else, or I'm going to plug something else in on /them!/ I should stay calm. It's Friday, the week is done. One week closer to Christmas vacation. *sighs*
Second performance is today... so I'll be leaving soon to go to the theatre... won't be home until about 10pm - oh well.
