No Internet for the past week due to some problems with the router; I fixed it while the landlords are out for their daughter's wedding. Is that Geek Squad material?
Also, the electricity went out for a whole day here. The electric company was supposed to shut off the power for the house next to us, but they made a mistake and shut ours off instead.
All these problems with technology made me realize just how dependent I am on things like computers, TV, and Internet. I was literally dying without them. Then I see a show on MTV called "The 70's House" - has anyone seen that show? It's horrible - which goes on to further prove that we can't live without current technology. We are children weaned on digital milk, extracted from the matrix. I dunno what the hell that means either.
I'm about 3/4 of the way through Chuck Palahniuk's Choke. (Yes, I started reading it this week because of what happened.) I'm liking it so far, but I'm starting to see through the pattern in his writing. I still like his style, though. He must have some childhood issues...
Don't we all.
the electricians messing up and shutting down your house ... now thats classic
ReplyDeletei wanted the 70's show... that show is insightful and weird.
