My internet connection should hopefully be restored sometime next week!

\o/
congrats again then :) I would be all twitchy without my 'net

8DD YAYYYYyyy congratulations Alex! Im glad you're getting regular net back x3

Me too... I've really missed it.

Yeah I hear -that-
I never realized how much I've come to rely on the internet just to like, get through daily life [I don't mean in a dependent way I mean like in a paying bills kind of way lol] until I didn't have it anymore cos half the places I go to now have paperless bills

and also I don't have cable so I can't watch tv, it's my only entertainment

I don't have cable either. I gave up on cable a while ago because we realized we didn't really watch tv much. The only person that really watched it was my daughter, and there was really no reason to pay for cable when we only had one channel on ever. She now watches movies and sometimes watches tv at grandparents' houses. If there's ever a show we want to see, we tend to watch it online, and generally long after it has already aired (though we actually tried to keep up with House since Fox posted up the new episodes a week after they aired).

I watch everything online too, all I was ever watching on cable when I had it was reruns of stuff...really pointless to pay for that when you can get that sorta thing either on DVD or the 'net.

I don't like watching reruns unless the episode was good.

I could liiiiiiiive off reruns of MASH, the first couple seasons of CSI, Bones, Murder She Wrote and Good Eats...oh, wait, I do

I haven't had cable in a long time. I really could live without.

I find that the only people that miss it are people that come over to my house and have no other hobbies. My hobbies eat so much of my time I rarely notice if I don't have something like that.

When people come over my house, we just play Dungeons and Dragons or watch a film we rented.

......people rarely come over here...I guess I'm boring to be around. I'll either be sewing, crafting or watching a movie.

I think my friends have been getting bored with me too.

I figure by now they're all warned what I do in my down time, they dont like it they better have an idea in place for what they'd rather do. If they make a suggestion I'm likely to go with it, but if they leave it to me, well they're gonna be disappointed.

I don't want my friends to think I'm boring... OTL
