crazy up and downs

irked and bored..not a good combination..

.
our internet connection has been down for almost a week now. I am not the most patient person in slow internet connections. The connection has been intermittent. I called up the PLDT DSL customer service this afternoon hoping that i could find the answers i'm looking for. well, I did not find it. what i found was myself, waddling knee deep in a puddle of my own nasal secretions. (i've always wanted to use this line after i got to read it from the book, "Why Do Men Have Nipples?"--fun, smart book!)
.
Translation? NOSEBLEED!! I am not really sure if it was from the techy lingo the personnel used when he guided me through the troubleshooting or it was me speaking in tagalog! I really tried to sound tagalog but i was not sure what accent came out. I kept the conversation more like "ok..ok..yup..naka check sya..ok..wait lang..then?..uh huh..hmmm..wait..yah..ok..wait..yup.." The "wait" part was me trying to decipher if I really know what I'm doing or I am just a dummie in technology! Of course I also injected a couple of full sentences in tagalog! (tongue out!)
.
Anyway, I'll keep this short since I am taking advantage of the "up" in the intermittent connection we have. (Apparently, there's nothing wrong with MIG and the signal in our area..Dunno what's wrong..)
.
I forgot to watch American Idol live! grr! I was doing some research for my grad school assignments during one of the "up" times of the connection earlier. (Can you believe it? 12 units na ko after a couple of weeks more! haha!) I just realized that I forgot to watch it as I heard Anoop Desai singing when my sister switched channels. And as I prepare to lift my butt up and go to the living room, Tito Nonoy had just grabbed the most powerful gadget of all and switched the channel. Shocks and smuckers! That was quick! My butt haven't even lifted a millimeter! I'm catching it now on primetime. (harhar)
.
I just wanted to say in additional that I was overwhelmed by the comments left in my previous post..hehe! You guys are right and I was also thinking the same. It's just that sometimes a shadow blinds you when you are down just as I said in my reply to your comments. But now, I'm up again..hehe! crazy girl! actually after I wrote that entry I already realized that there is so much good than there is bad. So, yeah..best of both worlds! thanks mucho!
.
Love and Bliss frecklesnoots!

Damo gd ta ya parehas.hehe Like the speaking Tagalog thing. Ako I'd rather do push ups than have to speak Tagalog, given the choice.hehe Not that I hate our national language. Budlayan lng gd ko ya. And I feel so awkward when I speak it. That goes saying you're not alone. hehe

Parehas man ta sa "realizing the good" in these solitary boring life. Indeed, there is more good than bad in our situation. It's not like also that we chose to be in this situation. So make the best na lang kay basi someday we'll miss this when we're waddling knee deep in a puddle of our own sweat gland secretions 'cuz we're busy working. hehe
