internet: we have it.
alder_knight and I had a text conversation entirely in capslock while I was at work and she was waiting for the repair people. After almost two weeks without internet, we were pretty close to going feral and biting people and chewing on chairs. Now, I am doing the happy little cloud dance from "Rejected". Hello glorious email! Hello glorious flist! Hello glorious fanfiction! Hello glorious pr0n!
Also, posting half naked manips from coffee shops with old men sitting behind you isn't the thrill ride you would expect.
