This has been a busy weekend due to the exhaustion from my first week back at work and a number of varied social obligations. I found time to squeeze in a few hours on the tables, but not as much as I would have liked. I suppose that if I have so much going on in life that I can’t find time to play recreational poker, that’s probably a good thing. But my play has also been hampered by a terrible Internet connection — every few minutes, it has been hiccuping, resulting in disconnects and missed hands. Finally, I decided to call Verizon tonight, and managed to talk to some relatively competent support reps, despite the fact that it was after 11 p.m. Personally, I think that this terrible cable modem I have is just busted, but after taking it out of bridge mode (and taking my D-Link router out of the equation) and resetting everything, I think it might have solved the problem. Perhaps being on continuously for 9 months without a reset got it a bit tired. So right now I’m killing some time on FullTilt “testing” it out until I get my return call from tech support at 12:45 a.m. to check in on me. Then… through the pillow I go.
Edit: I take that back. The problems still seem to persist. And I somehow missed my callback (stupid cell phone). Screw it, I’m going to bed.
