the internet - gotta have it

well, it is official. . . i'm addicted to the internet. . . thank you Al Gore!

seriously. . . we have been having cable issues at our home since we moved in this year - phone, tv, and internet. nothing major that we could FIX - just the little, annoying electronic goblins that make their presence known at worst times. . . only to disappear or at least fade when the cable guy shows up.

this week i bought a new router thinking that this would finally put this whole thing to rest.
yeah, good idea. . . just wrong.

we had a bad modem, but we were able to switch it out for a less-bad modem that the tech left with us for such as time as this. parts of yesterday and today we didn't have tv service. and i didn't really care. and we don't have phone service at the moment. and i don't really care.

what i care/d about was no internet. . . no news, no blogging, no email, no news, no idea shopping, no after Christmas shopping (i hate in-person, real time, in-the-mall shopping - give me amazon.com!) did i mention "no news"????

anyways, i admit it. . . i need my internet more than my phone or my tv. . . and i can't believe i just wrote that.

i promise - i will go look for internet addiction self-help groups in my area as soon as i finish this post. . .
