For the next 3 days I’m on a sort of mini vacation. I’m babysitting my parent’s dog. I thought, hey, what a great way to break up the monotany of my life….Until I got to my parents house and realized that they have no computer with an internet connection. I didn’t think I would ever make it. But I got resourceful. I grabbed my laptop, made a few calls to MediaOne, dealt with some not so friendly customer support, and voila! I now have 3 days of noninterrupted computing experience.
