This still cracks me up.
OH MY. It did mess you up. No tongue hanging out of your mouth.
At about 12 hours without the internet, I rolled up into the fetal position and started sucking my thumb....
An addict goes cold turkey
Okay so this past Monday, I woke up; worked in the morning and expected a nice leisurely afternoon catching up on the DIS. Much to my surprise....
the internet was not working
I checked the connections, checked the router.....I really didn't know what I was looking for (if you remember, dumb Asian here)...but I knew I needed to get it fixed and quick. I was starting to break out in a cold sweat and shaking....
An hour past, still no internet
Two hours past....no internet
3,4,5 hours past still no internet....
When it rolled around to about 7 hours w/o the internet. I started glazing over...
At about 12 hours without the internet, I rolled up into the fetal position and started sucking my thumb....
My roommate came home and rewired the connection so we could use the desktop...However, we went from 3 laptops and a desktop to 3 people sharing just one desktop. I was only able to jump on the computer once in the morning and the then once after midnight last night.
That was nerve racking to me and I got the shakes again.....
The problem is with the router. My roommate purchased a new one, but has yet to install it......so still only 1 computer. Luckily today, neither of my roommates has desired to spend that much time on the computer so I've been able to DIS at will tonight........PHEW...
I can't wait til tomorrow when all is right with the world and I can again sit on the couch; watch a bit of TV and cruise the DIS........
I actually didn't realize how addicted I was until I couldn't have it.......Maybe I do need that intervention.
is how I feel when there is no internet, so I completely understand the fetal position. That my friend is an addiction!
As a stay at home mom, it is one of the biggest ways for me to stay in touch with the rest of the world, current events, etc.

. I can give up a lot in life, but not being able to DIS?? 
Uhhgggg, that's happened to me before and I call up Bob in a panic and he flies right over. He lives for that stuff. I've been known to go to the library which is only 2 miles away and hog up one of their computers.
Umm....I don't think any of us here can be involved in an intervention, unless we are being intervention-ed (Intervened?) ourselves.....
Glad you got things working, even if not optimally. I am always at a loss when my internet goes down!
Oh, and be careful, thumb sucking is addicting....just ask my ds!
LOL!
Oh! You poor baby!!
(I would have been the same way!)
Here's some pixiedust to make it all better...
Kathy
We have four desktops and two laptops so that I can dis from anywhere in the house.
I have to get to work because my binder is feeling inadequate. I have never decorated her all pretty like you guys have. I am off to see the wizard!
Inspite of what you say, it came out great. Of course, I'm a guy so take that w/ a grain of salt. I thought we were bad w/ 4.
Sounds good to me...just put fragil on the box so they dont drop me on my head.Sure, I have a friend who works for fed ex, I'm sure I could get him a special "cargo" rate!
Sounds like a yes to me jordan.perhaps........
We're here for you Man....You'll get through this..if you really can't take it any more head over to Best Buy and pretend you are in the market for a new computer..
Jordy - you have now beat all. I would love to meet the patient, and apparently very open-minded, person who takes all these pictures for you!! This must be a great friend!!! Or are you using a tripod and a timer???
Either way - thanks for the laugh!!!
That is my same reaction to no internet!
Here is hoping everything gets fixed with your internet connections!
Our satellite has a habit of only going out when we REALLY want to watch something on TV!
Our prayers are with you in your time of need!
All I can say is
That happend to us one night last week! No internet, and NO CABLE - NO ESPN!!!! I told DH that he might have to talk to me
If that happened....I would've been out the door.....running screaming.Thanks Jordan I laughed so much soda was coming out my nose (yep it's a bad visual but you deserve it
Have you ever laughed so much you still laughing but no sound is coming out?? Yes, that was me after the "fetal position" picture. Bill was wondering what the heck was wrong with me until I turned my laptop around and showed it to him. Then he understood
Ok, by the 3rd hour I would have been taking my laptop somewhere to hook up to the free wi fi. I can't believe you didn't do that
Ahhhh, sitting on the couch, watching TV and cruising the DIS, what a good time will be had. I love doing that too
If you need an intervention, everyone on your PTR needs one too
NOPE NEVER AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN!!
Fantastic installment Jordan, you always crack me up!!
Sounds good to me...just put fragil on the box so they dont drop me on my head.
Sounds like a yes to me jordan.
I don't know how much help we would all be during your intervention....
We'd just be gathering around you, "More binder pics....more binder pics...."
Great installment as always!!!
