I Hate Technology....

June 18, 2008 3:50pm CST
Ok not really but I do hate when its not working right. Saturday night my modem went bad now it is new and we think someone got it wet but we didnt tell them that. So they sent a new modem but alas I had to wait to get it till today as it was the weekend and they ship 2 day. So wow now I got some catch up to do. But thankfully I am back to the world of Mylot which I missed oh so much. Its like an adiiction I was having withdrawls. So what did I miss while away?

Technology should not be as bad as we made it in our surroundings because it is we who do not give full attention to our proper and respectable work. It is good that we need chitchat and we go for that

Minnie, glad you are back on line. You have to watch lightening as well when it comes to DSL modems you would not believe all of the customers that have lost theirs in the last few stormes we have had.

I was gone for almost a month due to technology and the iodicy of the internet provider that I have service through.. I finally got it straightened out and had the internet on in about 2 minutes, but they were in the wrong and I was right this time, but had the fight of my life on my hands to get it straightened out.. I almost went crazy without my internet.. I do honestly believe that you can have withdrawal when you can't "surf".. Sometimes you just have to reset your modem to make it work right again.. My son who works on computers for a living, always unplugs my modem, lets it set for about 2 minutes and then plugs it in again and it works just fine.. You might try this the next time, if it happens again.. Good to have you back..

I love technology but I also hate it when I'm about to disassemble it and fix it. I use to fix my own computer (desktop) when there's something bad happening with my system unit. I just hate dealing with wires and all that. Anyway, welcome back to you. I hope your modem wont screw up anymore. ;)

Oh my god, having computer stuffs malfuntionning is one of the thing that I hate the most. I can't suft net, can't play games, can't do work, can't msn and can't come to mylot. I would always try my best to avoid something wrong with my computer, and it's nice that you have your computer recovered :)

I do have to agree with you that myLot is like an addiction,because I miss it even though I do get to log in almost everyday, but I haven't been able to respond to discussions the way that I would like to do here at myLot. Glad you are back! And yes, technology sucks when it don't work right.
