ellefliesOh bless you sweet sweet internet.
It's been awhile.
My company has started putting us up in hotels that require obscene amounts of money for internet access. This being the new hotels we're staying in in Germany - the reviews have been overwhelmingly negative. So really I've only had internet off and on for the past 2 weeks - it was very sporadic and there was usually someone hovering over my shoulder willing me to get off the computer to they could do their thing.
Much fun was had by all. Seriously.
And where was my computer in all this?
Broken. That's where. I inadvertently gate checked my computer and I've done it before and it's never been an issue but the baggage handlers in Maine were... aggressive.
They cracked the screen.
And I have a limited warranty. So fun times, I got to buy a BRAND NEW COMPUTER today. To replace the BRAND NEW COMPUTER I purchased in December.
Fortunately my Dad is paying for half the computer further cementing his position as BEST DAD EVER.
Now, I must toddle off and make a phone call that could be determining my future for the next 4 years or more. *crosses fingers*
