Outage

Thanks to my hubby's wonderful tech skills, I have internet after a couple of days outage.

I was out for a while, and I've got a 12 hour shift tomorrow, but Saturday I'll be out in force.

Damn Time Warner Cable!

I spent a half hour on the cell with them with no solution; hubby comes home and spend exactly 4 minutes to get me back online and gets the dead phone back on.

ARGH!

I hate calling our cable internet tech support...it's always my computer, not them - when it always is.

Did the call to the tech center actually end up in Delhi? That's happened a few times.

Sorry about the bad grammar in the post. I was in a bit of a hurry. *:)

12 more hours and the weekend is mine. :)

Linda: It sure is.

Batman: With our phone also out, they couldn't really blame my mac.

A: No. Surprisingly, we have a local number for tech support! :)

Damn Time Warner Cable!

I have Verizon. Overall, Verizon's service for Internet connection is quite good and much better than their repair record for the phone line itself.

Glad that you're back online, Brooke. I've been wondering where you were!

Hey, all!

I have to work 12 hour shifts Mon,Tue,and Wed, but after that I have 5 days off.

This full time thing makes it hard to blog. I really should hit the lottery or something. ;)

Oh, and re: the computer; we went to MicroCenter and got a GB of ram. It's really helping to speed the old girl up.

I might have to break down and upgrade our technology right before the end of the year, and then write it off on taxes.
