Internet, Power outages, and other random stuff

Lately at my house we have been having issues with our internet. If you can connect at all it is slow and spotty at best and there are periods where any attempt to connect fails. At one point we also had some issues with the phone. Not being able to get on the internet makes getting in contact with the rest of the world rather difficult, also watching Doctor Who is rather difficult when the internet is down and you don't get BBC on the tv. Course we haven't gotten any worth while channels on the tv in a while, 2 channels only. Also my email has issues.

Today when I went into town to pick up my paycheck the power for the area went out. The store where my dad works was roasting coffee at the time and the coffee roaster filled the store with smoke when the fans in it stopped working. Burnt coffee is a rather interesting smell. Also the traffic lights went out, that made crossing the intersection an exercise in nerves, it was rather fun. I think I might need to replace my sanity, it seems to have stopped working properly.

 After power was restored I went and bought some tea, and a bamboo whisk.

I have been working slowly on my project that shall not be shared or named. It is going pretty well. Of course it is the only knitting that is getting done.

I apparently have a talent for making the internet not work. Seriously it is getting ridiculous how not working the internet is. I give up, will get a better post up later when the internet works.
