The No Good Bad Very Bad Day

Have you ever just had one of those days where everything goes wrong? That was my day yesterday. I intended to spend the day studying for my last final and finishing up my last assignment. So I went to the school Web site where I log in and instead of the page coming up I get a messsage, "Internet Explorer cannot display this Web page." Argh! I checked our other computer, same thing. It worked the day before so that was weird. So I thought the Web site must be down so I did some other things for awhile and came back and still got the same message. So then I called the school's helpdesk, and spent over an hour on the phone with them, installing Firefox to try that, running spyware and virus scans, trying to bypass the redirect, all to no avail, and of course it seems to be working perfectly fine for everyone but me! They finally sent me to the head guy who told me he would look into it and call me back, argh! I had Ben look at it but he was stumped too, except he thought maybe comcast had put up a new firewall or something. So then I called comcast, our internet service provider to see if they could help, and they decided it was probably a router problem and forwarded it to the Network Engineers. They had told me it should be fixed within 12 hours, it still isn't. If I can get it to work from the library, it looks like I'm going to have to work there. Very aggravating.

So yesterday, Ialso went and took a couple pics of flowers and stuff that I planted over the weekend to show you all and then popped the memory card in the computer, and the files wouldn't open because apparently our memory card is broken! Oh, and I forgot the best part of all, during our record April warm spell, our ac stopped working! It has been suffocating in our house. We have every fan we own going. I guess I should be grateful that it broke now instead of in July and Aug when it gets up to 100. And we have a buyer's warranty so they should pay to fix it. Well, all, thanks for listening to me vent. I'm off to bother comcast some more and see if I can get them to fix it. As if finals weren't enough just by themselves. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day.
