Day Off! Yay me!
Aug. 20th, 2003 03:17 pmI'm feeling a little neglected! No mails from M from the last four or so that I've sent him this afternoon! I suspect that there's a problem again, though.. yesterday I got a mail from him after he was already home. :) Our mail at home is now a little bit screwy, too.
This morning, I got a call from the Adelphia office in Richmond. I had emailed them (last week..) about our connectivity problems. She called to let me know that they had credited my account and the tech support head was looking into it. Then I had just gotten home from the bank and such and sat down for lunch when I got a call from a local technician, who said they'd be out in 30 or 45 minutes if I'd be home. So I rushed through my lunch (hate doing that) and ran around trying to get the house looking halfway decent. It's dirty but somewhat straightened now. The two techs bumbled about on both of our computers for a while, looked at the line outside and basically accomplished nothing. They were nice enough, and they did try several things, but really got nowhere. I think part of this is that they really didn't give any credit to what I was saying in parts--when we have a connection problem, our closest neighbor has a connection problem as well. Therefore, I don't think the problem is actually with our computer, even though, yes, we do have a router..
I have hosting available for one domain that I'm not using. I can't decide what I should put there. I'd like to use it, but I don't want to waste it, either, on something silly. I think I just want another web project, which is silly of me since Bjorn isn't exactly booming yet. We really should get going on getting it more traffic. To be honest, though, that's not something that I've ever really had to do, and it's very much not my thing. Maybe the internet fairy will do it for me. :)
I dreamed I was Courtney Love last night, which disturbed me. The only thing I know about her--and believe me when I say I haven't thought of this in quite some time--is that she's the one who was married to Kurt Cobain. Remember that my pop culture knowledge is limited, and I wasn't much of a Nirvana fan to begin with. Actually, it wasn't so much that I was Courtney Love in the dream as it was that I gave her a name upon wakening and thinking about said dream and knowing who she was. The funny thing is that I was married to M, in the dream, and not Kurt Cobain, but somehow, it was the same and that's why I had to be her. It was very odd, even for me.
