Wow, not having the internet really sucks
September 1st, 2008
Because I’ve been at home I’ve been using the Internet a lot more, as a result we managed to reach our Internet cap with three days to go. Â Three whole days with barely a snail’s pace of bandwidth.
It hasn’t been pleasant.
Not because I’ve wanted to go onto the net, I mean of course I did want to go online but it was more the knowledge of not being able to which bugged me. Â There were a couple of times that I wanted to look something up quickly and because of the speed limiting it would take ten or fifteen minutes to process the whole thing.
But as of midnight the Internet is back.
So if I haven’t responded to an email or commented on something I’ll catch up over the next couple of days.
Something that was positive is I got to read the entire back catalog of the Marvel series Runaways.

Yes it does! I seriously considering changing providers (optus currently) when we move.
Now on to Runaways (I’m going to post about this later tonight), you need to drop everything else you’re currently reading and get yourself a copy of Volume One - it is awesome, it will hook you.

Aww. I have all volumes of Fables here now! Haha and I just got Green Lantern and Supergirl off Amazon. x) I’ll put that next on my list.

Sarah, definitely stick with Fables if you’ve got ‘em all. I just need the last two and it’s killing me.

I already find it sucks when it’s away for an afternoon, because somehow it’s always on a time when you ‘need’ it most.

I know it drives me crazy, I don’t have to be using it, but the second it goes out I know that there will be something that I want to look up!

I can’t imagine being tossed back to dial-up speeds. I’m scared that Comcast will start considering me a high bandwidth user because I’ve been working from home more often, and start tightening up on me.
