Why doesn't our internet work?
It is everyone's nightmare (or at least one of mine) to wake up and be told I've been cut off from the cyber world: no email, no msn, no Google! Horrific! And that's exactly what happened today.
From what I could tell it wasn't my fault, even though the router is in my room for accessability to signal for everyone. The lights were flashing where they should, it was just no one was home! I fiddled. Unplugged it. Mike re-set it. Still nothing. At a complete loss we text Kirsty's mike who is mechanical genius.
Some hours later, when Mike still hadn't turned up, Tariq emerges telling us that his internet isn't working properly (communal sigh), 'yes, we know. None of ours are either, mike is coming round to fix it.'
Tariq disappears, 20 minutes later a knock on the door- 'Sorry guys, it's my fault, I turned the modem off in my room last night!'
Thanks Tariq!
Apparently he 'wondered what the switch was for' and 'decided to turn it off' when nothing exploded or stopped working, he 'went to sleep'.
I am now filling time before Sushi. I'm very excited about this, I haven't had sushi for so long, too long. Only someone who will remain nameless but it's fairly obvious who it is, decided to play 'Civilization' and got carried away forgetting the time. Now, I don't think it's unfair to point out that I have been told on many an occasion that I need to plan my day to get the most from it. I did this today. Everything was planned around leaving at 6.30 for Sushi. I did some work, I arsed around on the 'net, I ate lunch appropriately, I even made time for my workout dvd only to get upstairs to a text asking if we can put it back to 7.30 because someone forgot the time and hence didn't do their Workout and would 'feel bad' if they didn't do it!
Hmmph.
Let it be written here forever, I NEVER want to be told again by said nameless person that I am to plan my day, and if those words are uttered, i reserve the right to shout at the top of my voice : HYPOCRITE.
thats all folks
