#23 - Called To See If Your Back Was Still Aligned

And your sheets were growing grass all on the corners of your bed.

Hours spent without internet access: 37
Hours spent dealing with Sasktel tech support today: 4
Calls made to Sasktel customer service line: 5
Malls visited trying to get a new modem: 2
Sasktel employees who were really nice: 6
Sasktel employees who were complete dicks: 2
Times I tried to go on the internet only to realize it still wasn't working: 12 (low estimate)

Also, while all this was going on I somehow got roped into volunteering at the folk festival. Which is actually kind of good because I was angsting about having to buy a ticket, and I am not actually working during any performance times. But I am working on the site crew. Which is physical labor and lifting and stuff. Oh dear.

Despite the lack of internet and prospects of actually having to do hard work my days off are going swimmingly. I was expecting to spend most of my time lazing around being useless, but I have actually been pretty busy. Yesterday I: cleaned my house, went for coffee with Number One, had family dinner, went to Vi's going away party and then people were over at my house for drinks. Plus, I got up at 5:30. In the morning. It threw off my schedule completely. I made myself lunch at nine and had woken up from a nap my noon. It was awesome though, the day was so long.

Tomorrow I have a meeting, another family dinner, and then Matt's sure-to-be-a-kick-as-time party! I love days off.

Completely unrelated: I am watching So You Think You Can Dance while I write this and some guy just said "I would love to man handle her all up in the hair". What?

EDIT: Is manhandle one word or two??
