17 Mar 08 Manic Monday

Why does everything seem to go wrong on Mondays? I remember writing on this topic just last week.

Services that were once a luxury, such as telephone, and even electricity are now seen as necessities and for many the Internet falls into that category too. It certainly does for those of us that rely on the connectivity to earn a few pennies each day!

This morning,  no Internet. That means no phone too, when you use VOIP. That’s not so bad, as mine is set up to forwardto my cellphone if there’s a net outage anyway. Although I can check my emails on my cellphone, it’s not a full web browser,  and not the best way to try and reply.

Fortunately, I was off to visit a client this morning anyway, so I’ve been able to purloin a spare computer of theirs to do some other tasks that needed doing this morning.

Heck it was only yesterday, that I was commenting that ‘we’ve never had it so good” as far as the Internet goes.  I guess, I put a jinx on things, and today’s citywide outage is all my fault!
