Crappy DSL is Crappy

Posts have been not happening due to technical difficulties on the part of my isp. I *think* they're mostly resolved now. They're also due to my being busy and being too tired/lazy to post anything here when I've had time to check in. SO, here's how my last few days have gone.

Friday was awesome. I spent the day cleaning and cooking for the barbecue I planned on having. I got to spend time with my favorite people and feed them, and then we tried to have a bonfire. I say tried because there were some pretty nasty wind gusts that kept putting the fire out when we were trying to light it, so we called it quits and headed out to a diner nearby to hang out.

Saturday, I think I slept a lot. Then later in the day there was a food-tasting party at my cousin's house, which inadvertently lead to spending the better part of the day with my nephew. I am absolutely retarded over that kid and love him like crazy, so being able to see him for as long as I did made me happy, especially since he's finally lost his fear of grandpa and was being all kinds of sweet and loveable.

Most of Sunday I had no internet. I was unhappy. Without internet, I can't check the things I need to for school, I can't look for work as quickly or fuel-efficiently, and I can't post here or get my gaming on. That's mostly in order of priority.

Today, well yesterday now since it's technically Tuesday morning, part of the internet problem was fixed, but right after my dad got off the phone with the isp, it went out again. I'm assuming it was for resetting since we found out the speed we were paying for wasn't supported well in the area and we had to downgrade. I also got tax refunds back today, did some banking, had dinner with the family, then bought an Xbox 360. I just can't make use of my xbox live account yet because only one phone line in the house works, and that is located in the kitchen, which is nowhere near my xbox. So, that has to wait. I also got in a nap, and then went bowling with a friend, and as we were on our way to the diner to hang out and b.s. some more, we got rear-ended. No damage, we're fine, she was driving and decided to let the other guy go... but I think we both peed our pants a little bit.

Aside from a few minor incidents, it's been a good few days, and I've been able to sleep without too much trouble, just... quite a bit later than I wanted. Like now.
