There was no internet this morning.

Well, first there was and then not.

This is the worst case situation as one cannot be certain that it is the cable people or the house.

In this case, it was pretty clearly the cable.

We can call Time Warner but no one will be answering. Mostly, I assume because everyone is calling Time Warner. Even at 3AM.

I hate how I react to this when it happens. I get anxious and begin to freak out.

And yet I know it will be fixed and I will eventually be back in business.

This is the new state of things.

I live through and by the computer. Or think that I do.

Reality is another thing.

I quit trying the impossible, did some things I needed to do and went to the gym.

When I came back, it was "fixed".

This is a new dependency. Not one that I like.

But here I am back on the net telling about it.

I do not expect any sympathy. I got myself into this. I gave up hard copy books. I wouldn't even know how to get to the radio although this is not true. There is always NPR, that supremely smug source of succor.

But I am an internet guy.

We are back in business like I knew we would be. Good times for all.

I just don't like the sudden hit of adrenaline that occurs when they bug out.
