My New Cape
I'm almost too ashamed to admit this, but I cannot contain my excitement any longer. We have finally gotten DSL this week. We have been tortured with slow downloads, uploads, browsing, etc for entirely too long. This afternoon, for the first time, I accessed the internet, via my home pc with astonishing speed. I feel almost superhuman. I can do anything- well at least everything faster. I have this insane sense of power suddenly. I have the inexplicable need to illegally download every song I have ever heard, just because I can. I even went to noggin.com today (Dylan's favorite web site) to play the games that normally take 15 minutes to load. I felt so inspired by this new-found speed that I ran about 4 miles today instead of joggin 2.5. Birds are flying faster, I think I am even typing faster. I feel like I have changed the universe for the better. Maybe it's the caffeine from my triple tall, non fat, no whip mocha, but it doesn't matter. Hell, I'm so damn happy about this, maybe I'll even make dinner tonight.

I rememeber when I got DSL. It was almost an orgasmic experience. Let's hope we never have to go back to dial-up.
Last summer, I visited my dad, who lives in Stone Age, Michigan with dial-up? Let's just say I'd rather SKIP the internet if I have to wait patiently for pages to load ever again! (yes, YES! I blame the internet for my increasingly shortened attention span!)
