For the last few nights, our connection has been "wiggen out". We've been getting error messages that I've never seen before. Usually turning off the darn thing, and waiting until the next day, works but ... talk about serious withdrawal. It forced me to ... clean (oh ick, ick and yulk). <BR/><BR/>Glad you're back up and running and glad you're here at blogspot.

I start getting twitchy if I have to go a day without. In fact I'm at work now and you see where I am. It's bad. I did actually write my first book before getting on the internet, and shockingly enough was very productive. I actually wrote every night and never had to get online. I also knew nothing of rules and guidelines and therefore ended up with a 219000 wc beast that I had to gut the hell out of. So being productive and not internet-ing is not always a good thing!! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173191469938389438.post-5694438282115185322009-01-14T10:09:00.000-05:002009-01-14T10:09:00.000-05:00Oh, I've been there, and nothing makes me crankier...Oh, I've been there, and nothing makes me crankier.
