20 hours later

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

So I got here this morning, and our internet connection was still down. The nice folks at the phone company did get it working just before 9AM, approximately 20 hours or so after they did something to cause the problem to begin with. Now everyone can get back to online shopping, online banking, sending personal emails, etc. (Seriously, I checked, those were the first things people used the return of the internet connection for. Ahh summertime in the world of legislative affairs!)

As for me, I’ll be catching up on Windows XP SP2 info, and the release of Firefox 0.9.1. Is it just me or does it seem like it 0.9 hasn’t been out long enough to even get used to and there’s an upgrade available already? 🙂

    Cross posted from my Child Abuse Survivor blog, with the following further thought. This is also a good example of why which social network you choose to use, matters. If I had decided that I didn’t like the way Facebook worked, and decided I was going to delete my account and move to Google Plus,…

    I wound up getting disinvited to the Board meeting today. Turns out they invited 12 staff people on top of the 50 or so Board members who were going to be there, and only had a conference room that holds 55 people. Since I only found out yesterday, and had nothing else planned for today,…

    Yeah I know, posting’s been a little light, and sort of dull the past two days. I was actually out of the office yesterday, nursing a migraine/tension headache by sleeping most of the day. Today, I’ve been playing a little catch up, nothing major but stuff that takes up some time. (If I owe you…

    How can the same person in the office leave his PC logged on and Outlook open while he’s not even in the office, and then two days later sit in his office all day long without even opening Outlook? What is the thinking process, is there a thinking process? I don’t understand.. Of course, I’ll…
