How DID we do it? How did we EVER survive without the internet?? Today the high-speed interenet connection we have thanks to Charter Communications DIED. That's right, sometime around noon (CST) it just stopped working and didn't come back until around 6pm (CST). Riddle me this: how is a girl supposed to plan a wedding without the internet?!? I'm quite convinced that it cannot be done. Early in this period of non-connected-to-the-world-ness I came to terms with the fact that I didn't have email or instant messenger and I was, for the most part, ok with that. However, did you know that when the internet goes down you are also not allowed access to Google and other important "Favorites"??? I can't tell you how many times I sat down to look up a phone number or an address and wasn't able to - I actually had to go to the closet and dig around for the Yellow Pages! If you're reading this slice it means that you ARE connected to the internet so please take a moment to thank your modem - maybe give him or her a little kiss out of appreciation... |
