Tired

September 6, 2007

Been feeling quite tired over the past few days, managing only short practices due to other responsibilities. Also been feeling much more hungry than usual….changing seasons perhaps?

back on-line

September 6, 2007

3 phone calls, 2.5 hours and one new cable modem ($80) later and I am back on line again in the calm sanctuary of my own home. Too bad I can’t get the great americano’s here…I guess there are some benefits to being at the coffee shop, though I really didn’t get much done there, but some socializing.

Comcast f***ing sucks

September 5, 2007

I hate comcast. I have repeatededly had problems with my internet, which I rely on when I am working at home and there goddamn answer is always “Restart your router, restart your cable modem” ….”I’m sorry, you have a mac, we can’t help you, we only have PC techs here” “The problem must be at your end” then miraculously after their next update I have no problems, nothing ever changes here at my end and the service level fluctuates from week to week, seemingly coinciding with when they make changes to their service. In short, if you have a Mac don’t expect any help from their tech support, it seems like I know more than they do half the time…why do they even bother paying them they are effing useless. So at the present I am at a coffee shop using their internet connection because my connection, which used to be blazingly fast is now taking about 10 minutes to load any pages and the same to receive email. Maybe I should change jobs and do something that doesn’t rely on the internet….bah!!!

On the yoga front, I tried to get a little urgent matter done this morning before practice and it turned into an hours long ordeal, and as a result I missed practice. I am NOT happy….
