The Modem Has Been Pronounced Dead

We finally got rid of whoever was hijacking our wireless signal. Then we hooked up the Ethernet cables to put an end to it. Ten minutes later, lightening fried the modem.

The lightening struck. The power flickered. The modem got fried. No internet access. This is the first morning without internet. I usually check my email first thing in the morning and play a few games. Not this morning.

It wasn't so bad yesterday. I did all the regular maintenance on my computer that I'd been putting off. My system has been cleaned up, tuned up, optimized, defragged and scanned to death. It's never run faster! This is the stuff I kept putting off because it took so long to do. Well. It's done. I want my internet.

This is definitely not the right time to try to quit smoking. Can't wait for the new modem to arrive.
