German Router


Got your attention. Last January I bought a wireless router but could not configure it, so returned it. Still using the Dynex. Think the Monday morning storm knocked it out. Or so suggests Suddenclink tech man Henry. He also said there was outside chatter. I said is it the birds? He laughed and said he did not think so. I said well then I don’t hear any outside chatter but it is rather early. 

I told him that I did not like lots of wires. He seemed understanding although I do not believe he really gave a leaky dam. He was not aware that lots of wires fahreeks me out! I go into a la-la-like stage. My brain gets muddled. Time slows down. Time speeds up. Life seems to be a total loss. I find dust I did not know was there upon the wires. Is that is where I lost my bracelet. Then I become distracted from the wires. Lots of Wires Survival Mode I call it. LWSM. At this point I could not make cereal if my life depended on it.

I asked him if I should buy a new router. He said he could not tell me that. I said then why did I ask you. I need to know. 

Honestly, the plugging and unplugging and questions and no good answers and the outside chatter and the birds not being at fault lasted so long that I forgot what his last comments were. Oh now I remember, he said I might like to call Dynex and ask them for help. I might not like to call Dynex and ask them for help either. I can only imagine the LWSM. Unable to make ice water. Whole nother topic there... ice water. I know nother is maybe not a real word but I like it.

I am rambling but it seems to have helped the situation tremendously. 

I may journey to the local router store and purchase a router at the end of my busy day at work. Whole nother topic there... 

Sincerely with or without chatter,
Deb

Thumb Up

I just noticed today how totally weird my thumb looks when I am using scissors. Looks like it is waving to a crowd as if on a paper float in a parade. I did not know thumbs originally came from parades. Wondered. 

And why don't I have two thumbs? I do. But I mean on each hand. Guess it would make a difficult time with toilet paper or picking the nose. Might poke my eye out. I don't know. Seems a second thumb would be of service. If you lost one, you got an extra. That is a bonus. I lose stuff sometimes. 

One could hitch while thumping. Marvelous ability! 

And the thumb is so overworked. Bless it's little heart. Amazing thumb joint I must say. Speaking of joints. 

Should there be an aspirin for the thumb? Sure should. Watch. Somebody will invent it and I thought of it first.

Rule to live by... Keep your thumbs by your side and that is exactly where you will find them when you need them.

I ought to know. I needed mine today to cut paper with my scissors. Funny looking little thumb. Maybe my thumb is mad and is ranting in 'thumb'. Who is listening? Thumb people. So we are all listening to our thumbs basically is what I am saying to you today. The thumb rules.

Thumb Up!
