Me Vs the Universe. The prize: DSL
Jun. 13th, 2011 08:03 pmI had ordered DSL service some weeks ago, but with one thing and another (writing flavor text for next base set, undergoing massive keyboard-induced traumas, etc) I hadn't gotten to setting it up until tonight. After reading the instruction sheet I prepared to hook everything up, and after replacing a phone cord to my office phone I checked to make sure it was working by checking for a dial tone. Which wasn't there. Before switching the cords back I checked the phone in the living room...
...which also had no dial tone.
*^*%U&%^$%^*$^*$#$!!@#
The very evening I want to set up my DSL my phone service goes out??? I DON'T EVEN.
I hauled out my cell phone to report my outage to the phone company (never let it be said cell phones have no good use) and it is supposed to be fixed by the end of business tomorrow. Then I'll see what else can go wrong.
