let's hope this is not where I jinx the internet connection again

I haven't been very good about updating, have I.

The drama about the internet connection continued for about a week more after the last post, and my feelings about the whole thing had pretty much boiled down to "what the heck, I don't need the internet anyway". (That is not true. While I have discovered I could live without an internet connection at home, I'd rather not live that way.)

Then I was a bit sick -- a horrible sore throat, low-grade fever combination that didn't seem to want to go away -- and that along with insomnia and fatigue didn't make me the most pleasant person to be around. I found myself drifting off while at work a lot, which made me feel a bit like an idiot, but then again, I doubt anyone noticed.

So now I have an internet connection (hopefully) and am better (mostly) I shall try to be around more. (Yes, we've all heard this story before.)
