A few nights ago, we'll say on the 18th, the satellite went out and I couldn't do anything. No games, no email, no web browsing, nothing. That was one of the most boring hours of my life. When I got up the next morning, everything seemed fine until I got the 'router not detected' error. With no router, no Tivo updates. No Tivo updates = sad people and no season pass for Max & Ruby. I reset the router several times. Redid the whole network thing so many times that I was about to cry. When I checked the Tivo, I saw "No wireless network available". I started adding new networks, changing anything that could be changed and nothing would make it work. I had to key in that friggin' 26 digit hex-a-something encryption key at least a dozen times. Do you know how hard that is to do using a 5 year old remote controller with half the buttons gnawed off? Anyway, I finally figured it out.. And it was so easy. I felt like a dumbass for not noticing it before. but on my router config page, it wasn't updating the DNS. It was just 0.0.0.0. All I had to do was key in a DNS number there and it was fixed. Maybe I'm just router retarded but shouldn't it have done that itself? Now, if I can just make it for the rest of my life without having to reset that router or turn off my modem, all will be at peace in my little world of internet, Tivo and cartoons.
Another thing, I got my haircut again today. I say again... it's been quite a while since I got a good whack job on it. hehe I said whack-job. It's a lot shorter and so much thinner now and it looks good! It falls just perfectly around my fat face. You know those fruit roll-ups that used to have the faces on them and you could stretch them to make them look distorted and bigger? That's what it looks like someone did to my face. I have GOT to do something and lose like 10 pounds. Maybe cutting back on eating would be a good start. I got out of bed around midnight to go outside and take a furry blanket out of Charlie's house so he'd stfu and decided to check email (and obviously write this) before going back to bed and I had this enormous craving for a Little Debbie Valentine cake! I went to the kitchen and got a banana instead. After I ate the banana, I went back to the kitchen and got a fucking cake. and I MIGHT just go get a burrito to take to bed with me. No, I won't do that tonight but I have done it before. I used to take bagels to bed with me. Why can I not stop eating? Maybe I should start eating a few bits of sponge before bedtime so I won't feel hungry.

Oh, dude, I totally do this. You were just rewarding yourself for eating the banana.
I don't know if it's the same for you, but for me it's like: "Neener neener, cake! Lookit me, I'm NOT choosing you! I rule! Cake FTL!"
Ima gonna eat the banana! *nom nom nom*
(a few minutes pass)
"Heh, I showed that cake who was boss so I'm going to reward myself for not giving into the cake's temptation. It's okay to have cake this time since I said NO last time. Besides, that cake has it coming; all sitting on the counter lookin delicious like that."
CAAAKE! *nom nom nom*
Ahhh...wait...what's that?
Whachoo lookin at, burrito? You want a piece of me?
Yeah, that's what I thought.
