auntbijouMy internet disappeared last night.
I'm not sure why. There I was chatting happily with a friend, yawning fit to crack my head open, but making a valiant effort to stay awake, because it's been like, FOREVER since I talked to him last, and... *zzzzit*
It was gone.
My computer was on, and our power was on. Just... no internet.
Not long after, I saw several AT & T trucks driving up the street behind my house and thought..."Hmmmm, I wonder if this has anything to do with the squeal of brakes, and the bang I heard a little while ago?" And how my screen flickered for a moment just before everything stopped.
It didn't go blank. It just... didn't work anymore.
They fixed it a couple of hours ago, thankfully, so I AM BACK!!
Now if I can just get Messenger to run again...
*frowns and threatens internet with hatchet*
