My DSL is alive!  I'm back to the land of the living and coming out of the fog of insanity that I suffered while I had no internet... for 5 days.  FIVE DAYS!

Gah, I didn't realize that I'd be so depressed without it. XD

Mountains of messages everywhere except for LJ.  Hmmm.  *heads back to dA for cleaning*

happiness, joy

*waves*

I was just thinking about you this morning and wondering if you were okay. Glad to know the problems were technical and not otherwise.

Thanks!!! It's great to be back! *happy sigh*

I'm all goofy right now. XD

Uh oh, 2 months without computer? I guess it wouldn't be so bad when it's something that you choose and not like malfunction and service denial. lol

When I went to Japan for a week, I thought I'd miss internet, but I was so busy doing other things I didn't mind it either. :D

Now the silence if making sense. I was beginning to wonder too...

5 days, ouch. Glad to have you back, though ^^

Can't blame you. Isn't it scary to realise the hard way just how dependant we are?

I got kind of grumpy at first. Felt deprived. So it was like I was suddenly on a diet that I didn't want to be on. Then, I got mad at the lousy service. Then I got sad that I couldn't get in touch with my buddies or share my drawings. Then, I also worried that what if I had assignments piling up that I should know about. (Note how low in the scheme of priorities "work" came in... I don't know how to feel about that. LOL)XD All in all, this was something I would rather not experience again.

Yay! Glad you're back, and that you're okay--like everyone else, I was starting to wonder what was up.

I'm happy it wasn't something more serious, but internet problems really are wretched. Whenever my cable modem stops working I start to feel like all the oxygen has is slowly disappearing from the room. XD

Yay! It's sooooo good to be back!

Normally, I don't mind automated phone stuff when I dial the customer service, since I don't use it that often, but when you finally get directed to a real person (...why with such a thick accent I can barely understand!) and he/she's still not much of a help...

I know what you mean. XD

I missed you *hugs* I was wondering why you were so quiet :'(

The internet is the drug that sustains us; and we fear two scenarios; a) internet outage b) power outage...

My recent internet problems also left me navigating those stupid automated phone systems every night for a week, worst thing is when you finally get to the end of all those automated questions but then when it says it will transfer you and it doesn't and all you get is SILENCE...and after you do it all again, we also get those bad accents over here and I love how when they don't understand your problem they just say "I'm sorry madam, but I can't help you..."

Ohhhh yes. The customer disservice line! The abomination of modern society!
