I miss the Internet.

Yikes.

So I returned to Kalamazoo last week, discovering my Internet, which has been disconnected, was still not working. This is quite stressful, especially on someone who has journalistic aspirations and likes to read and write silly stuff like this quite often.

Then on Tuesday, the letter came.

After the apartment fire, my complex decided to demolish the building. Of course, you know tis from the earlier post about the messed up car. Sounds good, except they clipped the Internet connection.

So, what will they do to fix it? Nothing! They've decided to cut ties with the provider after their contract ends in July, meaning no repairs. This leaves residents SOL. I could try and find another provider, but I'm living by myself for the summer and can't pay the expensive rate on my own. Oh, and I'm moving out in August.

Sweet.

So I'm writing this from a coffee shop. I've been here for about three hours now, trying to catch up on the Web life I've missed all week. This should be fun.

Anyway, I now have an excuse to get out every day. I've got plenty to write, so hopefully I'll be able to continue posting despite my Internet follies.

The good news is golf is amazing. I've played nine holes twice this week and gone to the driving range twice. Looks like I have a new hobby. I'm not going to lie; I'm hooked. Hopefully I can use it to replace the Internet-less void I now have in my life.

Happy Mother's Day everyone, I'll be back with more to burn on lay-ta.
