What did you do Eggs: interact with humans?
If only. My connection went down halfway through my work shift, so I had to keep working on my project for a couple of hours before I could start calling my provider to get help. After another hour on the phone, not only did I still not have internet, but the person (who was very friendly, just in the wrong job) had changed my modem settings. As I finally found out yesterday, the changes were what was preventing the connection from coming back. A different support person fixed my settings, and POOF, internet back.
While I was fiddling with all the cables runinng from my modem and router, I noticed what a mess it was behind my entertainment system, and I ended up pushing things away from the wall, sweeping out dustballs and re-routing all the power cords so that they weren't tangled. I also added a second surge-protecting power strip back there, and nailed them both to the wall so they wouldn't get clogged with dust bunnies again, and reogranized all the plugs so that the video/audio stuff was on one strip, and the computer stuff was on the other.
(I also had to get all my recycling together before the trucks arrived at dawn)
Having stayed up all night, I slept half the day away on Saturday, and made the 2nd call to my provider once I woke up.
This is the Word of the Eggs.
