  • Darn You, Internet!!

    I was going to write an introspective entry about the fact that we're flying out to Nashville next week to record a musical that my wife wrote...and how cool it is going to be...and the emotions that accompany such a journey...

    But honestly, right now the main emotions I feel are panic, frustration, stress, and anxiety...BECAUSE MY INTERNET IS DOWN at home.  !!!!!!!
    I can't send any emails from my home computer with attachments...I can't upload Pro Tools sessions to my iDisk...or do any of the hundred things I normally do on a day-in and day-out basis in order to do my job.  And of course it had to happen this week, the week before we leave...

    And now everything is taking twice as long because of the gazillion work arounds + time on the phone with AT&T trying to get it fixed + time with the technician that comes out to fix it + him telling me he can't fix it + all of the copying of data to external drives and trips to Starbucks to upload files (what I'm doing right now) and the eons of time wasted due to this incredible inconvenience. 

    I know I'm wallowing...I know, I know, I know...(wah wah)

    I guess I had no idea how much I rely on the stupid internet in order to live.

    I know there's a lesson the Lord is trying to teach me in here somewhere...I JUST KNOW IT...but I'm too caught up in the moment right now to see it...

    OK...I better go, only 2 more hours until this 600MB file is done uploading (thank you, slowestinternetconnectiononplanetearth).

    1,000 frownie faces.
    :(
