Was the blogosphere a little lonelier without me? I guess not. If there was somebody missing something, it’s me missing blogging. I haven’t actually went off to some dream land where there’s no internet connection. I was here all the while, silently lurking and sulking. As much I want to update my blog, technology just failed me.

First, I have no internet connection. I moved to a new place so I have to have my SmartBro reconfigured in order for me to have my internet connection back. But I’ll have to pay P1,400 which I think is way too expensive so I tried doing it myself. Of course I did not succeed otherwise I’d have updated this blog sooner. Second, my PC just died on me. Again, I tried fixing it since I don’t want to pay for something I can do myself. I ended up buying a new video card and power supply but it still did not work. Sometimes there are things better left to the experts so this morning I had my CPU brought to the technician. So there, it took me almost a month to admit that there are things I can’t do myself. While waiting for things to get better, I’ll have to make do with what little time I can spare to sneak and use internet at work and update my blog. Just don’t tell my Boss.

@Jessie- Friend, Ok naman ako. Medyo hindi pa rin maka online lagi hanggang hindi pa ayos yung broadband connection ko. Anyway, salamat sa pagbisita palagi.

@Belle - It costs a lot to have to call for a technician for minor troubleshooting so I have to learn how to do it.
