I Can Take A Hint

Last night was the kind of drive home that just makes me wish I served breakfast down at the local diner.

I ended up stayin' a bit late yesterday. I've got an early conference call, and I'm pitching an entirely new set to my largest customer so I needed to dot a few I's and ask for more ink to cross the T's.

Anyway - it was later than normal when I left. I figured I'd miss the worst of the traffic so I wasn't worried one little bit.

Until I hit the mother of all traffic jams. Seriously. I know I say that often, but I haven't seen anything like this in a very long time.

We're sittin', we're sittin', we're sittin' - oh I moved 1/4 of a car length - we're sittin', we're sittin', we're sittin'....

You get the idea.

So it ended up being almost 9:00 by the time I drug my sorry self into The Belfry.

There was no way in HELL I was cookin', so dinner was a bagle and a cup of Sleepy Time Tea.

I keep my Bible on the computer tower next to where I sit most times. Last night I just wanted to glance through a few of my favorites sites, get a chuckle or some wonderful thought to distract me and then hit the hay. As I settle back in my chair, I put my feet on top of the tower and knocked my Bible off.

I gather everything back up as I'm waiting for IE to start up.

Nothin'. I can't get on the internet. Hmmmm. Router working fine. Computer on. I am in no way in the mood to deal with all this right now.

So I went to bed.

I got up this morning to realize my Bible had turned off the Surge Protector Strippy thingy that the modem and Telephone thingy was plugged into.

No Internet. No Phone.

I think someone was tryin' to tell me something.
