Moments after replying to a comment made on my last blog, my Internet service decided to take a tank—again.

Ugh!

Had just gotten it up and running late last night only to have it malfunction, stall out and then completely die this morning. This after the repairman who had been here last night came by to pick up his tools he’d left behind.

Great! Just great!

I find myself seriously wondering if the chimpanzees that work at my Internet provider know what they’re doing. This because every time I call to let them know there’s a problem, they assure me that “it’s working fine.” Then, when they do come out, which takes an inordinate amount of time to accomplish, they assure me that “things should be working just fine now,” and that “you should notice a significant increase in the Internet speed.”

Well, I would certainly hope so! I mean, things can’t get any slower than it being down all together.

Anyhow, by exacting patience the company didn’t deserve, we were able to get them to “fix” our Internet woes—once again. Here’s hoping that it stays working. (This, by the way, is just another in a long series of Internet malfunctions we’ve had to deal with over the past nine years!)

I hope all of you have a great holiday weekend! That it’s stress-free! That you can relax! That it revitalizes you!
