BREATHE!
It might be your connection, if a lot of people are on the network and such then it will slow you down.
Have you had the computer on for a long time?
What else are you doing on the computer?
I'm assuming you have a fast connection at school, right?

My computer-savvy Nora!! *leaps and tackles*

In my desperation, I rebooted the entire computer and tried re-starting the DL. Now it predicts 4 hours 18 minutes, and I can live with that. *G*

I think you're probably right with the connection thing... We get the internet here through the apartment, so if everybody's home and using it... :-P (But, nope, I just turned the computer on when I got home, and I'm doing nothin' else except talking to you. *G*)

You'll laugh 'cause I was reading old LJ stuff from the weekend that I missed and suddenly had an urge to check my recent Flist and poof, there you were all flailing and needy. *snuggles* Just call me Supergirl.

Good girl. It's usually it. Also, the best time to download is when everyone is in class or asleep. Then again that's always a hard coin to toss. *wiggle brows* So we're alone... ;)

Hee!! Did your super-hearing pick up the distressed wails and much vivid cursing of an unhappy fangirl? X-D This could a seriously useful superpower!

Yes, but that's when I'm usually in class or asleep, y'see. *snerk* (Man, you're the sanest person I've spoken to in the last few hours, I can tell you that. Spoke to one fellow at legal services who would only identify himself by the name of a planet. No last name, sir? Oh no. Just call him 'planet-name'. *facepalm*)

*rotflmao* A load of cannibals?? Actually, you *should* start worrying if they smuggle those! You should even... get out of the country...?? Like... fast? *g*

[strangecreature]

Darn smugglers, sneaking their expensive Colombian cannibals into our country! *shakes stick* :-D
