must have been the fairy dust

Hello, folks! Internet is fixed. I have no idea how. (Ellie's theory is that someone else in the neighborhood called in a problem early enough to get a Saturday tech, and that this problem is similar to the issue we had at Thanksgiving, where the tech had to do something atop a telephone pole. So a neighbor's fix might have also helped us.)

Last night, we went to a Shirtless Shindig to celebrate Jamie's top surgery. The guest of honor himself made me pasties out of adhesive-backed glittery craft foam, and requested that he be allowed to style my hair on unspecified future occasions (apparently, he does lovely updos). ♥ my burlesque-affiliated friends. They always create a comfy, accepting atmosphere in small group situations like the Shirtless Shindig.

Blargh, I am glad your internet issues have been fixed. There is basically nothing worse.

I did get something good out of it - I did some cleaning. Ellie came home and was all "wtf she vacuumed?"

I mean, I wasn't cut off. I could go to campus and get even faster internet. But yeah. DNW to leave the house when it's this cold, especially when it involves walking to the T.
