My internet has been really on the fritz the last 3 weeks. Sometimes my internet connection works, sometimes just not. Sometimes for hours, sometimes for minutes. It's a real pain in the ass. I complained about it to my ISP, but I've not received any answer yet. I have a feeling it might be connected to the various construction sites that sprung up in my neighborhood since the new year. My beautician has had the same problem (she lives across the street from me).

I almost set my nightstand on fire yesterday. A candle to close to my earphones & my iPod-Remote = stinky electronic disaster. Fortunately, "only" my earphones and iPod-Remote were affected, but still. It stank horribly and I could have hit myself for being so stupid.
