November 10, 2004 - 4:36 p.m. Gah. So my Internet is broken because somehow my Winsock (some kind of Microsoft interface between the ethernet and wireless cards and the actual Internet; Spencer thinks the name is hilarious.) is corrupted. I don't know who bribed it or turned it to the Dark Side, but somehow, it's not working for me anymore. The Microsoft website had a handy way to diagnose my problem and even offered a solution, which didn't work even though I did it twice. But, right, I'm incommunicado for a while (though I guess you could call me) until I can find a solution. Any ideas? It's so ironic that the kid who uses the Internet for everything gets it taken away. I mean, come on, we had to actually watch The Weather Channel this morning instead of looking it up online. I'm having to steal Nyssa's computer to even tap this out. (The library is just too far to walk in the rain.) Pray for my computer. ...before & after...
