And Then I Lost It

(second entry of the day, the links are over there >>>)

So after I posted my last entry and ate a salad like someone was chasing me for the shredded cheese bits, I said yes to this weeks updates from the fine people at the Fruit Computer Company, la la la la la la, and then K left early for the play because she had to stop someplace and then IT HAPPENED.

There.Was.No.Internet.

and you know .... gotta have the damn Internet.

I checked my settings, and according to Maxx the Mac, there was no network to be had. Now folks, I had just downloaded all the updates, so I knew there was a network. I looked over at the modem and all the lights were on.

So I tried one thing and then another and probably changed a million settings and no dice, and then it was time to go to the play.

Well. And well. R was totally flabbergasted when her California cousin walked up to her and gave her a big hug. The Sibs and her whole family did indeed make it, and they really liked it and couldn't get over that R had written this. Not to mention that two of her dearest friends, a couple, just came in from South Carolina today, so they were there, and her oldest childhood friend, who lives in Colorado, was, sadly, able to come to see the play because her grandmother passed away over the weekend so she was unexpectedly in town, and another of their best kid buddies was there, and his mother, so it was majorly old home week. And those little actors on the stage, they acted their hearts out tonight and were excellent.

So when I saw K at school, she said she'd been having network problems before she left. And I asked the Hubs when I got home, and he said that he'd had to reset the router and then everything was fine. But he was amused. I have a Mac. Aren'f they supposed to heueristically heal themselves, he wanted to know, like Data? But before I could try and see, I discovered this evening's festival of cat poo, so I have only just now sat down after running up and down with the laundry (towels on everything, man, it's the only way to go when you're living with an elderly feline, or maybe an elderly person, I probably shouldn't complain), but, ahhhh. And since I'm talking to you, you can see that yes, Maxx had heueristically healed himself, like Data.

I need to cool off and go to sleep. And probably eat stuff first, because I do that.

Okay.
