So the past few days have been some of the most infuriating ones as of late.
Day one: Our internet would intermittently cut out and get really slow. Dad calls them to check it out. Blah blah, I didn't understand most of it, but apparently everyone else in the neighborhood is slowing us down, so they're gonna come in a couple days to fix it.
Day two: Our entire phone line + internet die. Can't make or receive calls, no internet, they'll come the next morning.
Day three: They fix the phone line. Oh ****. As soon as they leave, the internet will not work. At all.
Today: My dad is up in Wisconsin with my super-pregnant sister, Qwest says the guy will come around three. Doesn't call until a quarter to five, gets here at seven. Has to set up a Qwest modem, because, apparently ours won't work with the upgrade they're giving us, he can't figure out how to do it- so he calls MY DAD for help.
Well, he doesn't know what the **** he's talking about, so he had to disconnect the router from the equation, so it's just the modem hooked straight up to the computer.
One computer in the house (out of four) gets internet. Now, I'm just pretty excited that I can GET internet, mostly because I have to print out some directions to the parades I'm going to tomorrow morning.
Oops, can't print things because whatever he did won't let me send the file to the printer. Greeeaaaaaatttttttt.
Now I have to use a pencil and paper like some neanderthal. :P
