time out

My modem broke. After 3 days of pointless, multiple hour-long phone conversations with my ISP, we (more like I) figured out the modem was fried. They are shipping a new one. Thankfully we have our old one from Bellsouth to use till then. OK, I have something to say. You know, a lot of people talk about how Mississippi is so backwoods and yet I’ve NEVER had so many problems with utilities like phone and internet service there, unlike here!!!!!! SHIT! I’m so fucking serious. My service for EVERYTHING was at least 50 x’s better in Mississippi than in the DC Metro area! Damn. So whatever, Mississippi provides better service than the “more modern” part of the country. End rant, and leave no nasty comments, Hahaha!!!

Oh yea, I’ve been infected by Jenn to: Name 5 random facts about yourself.

1. I love astronomy and once considered majoring in it.
2. I rarely answer to my name when called, because it’s almost always for some other “Jennifer, Jen, or Jenny.”
3. I send and received about 40 emails on average a day to & from Mike. We’ve done a 100 easily though.
4. I rather stay home alone than go out with friends.
5. Almost any noise that I am not creating or controlling bothers me immensely.

OK, so I pick five right? This will be random so… Lorik, Jenii, Lain, Midori, Karen. Don’t worry guys, if you don’t do it I won’t cry XD.

I’ll be sending out mail tomorrow. FINALLY, I know. I’ve just been feeling really cramp-y this week so I haven’t gotten around to it all week.

    I’ve had a few internet problems here, but not since I moved into the trailer with Matt I think the wires by my old townhouse were just really old or something.
