What doesn't work?

I was sitting here working on my computer and was called away for a little while.  Upon returning to the room, Stacy said the DSL isn't working.  Okay, what is that and why does it affect me?  It's the thing that gives you the Internet service.  "Well don't just sit there, go fix it."  She tried her best before she called the phone company.  They said they will deliver a new box within 24 hours.  "WHAT?"  I need it now.  Okay I guess I have to wait.  One, two, three, the hours went by.  Yes, I did check to see if maybe by some luck it came on by it's self.  I was going into withdrawal!  I was sweating and shaking every time I thought of my Blogs and other things that I check on a daily basis.  People might think something has happened to me.  Will they ever forgive me for ignoring them for 24 hours? 

23 hours later there is a knock at the door.  Yes, they are here with a new box in hand.  "We will have it fixed in a few minutes."  They found out it wasn't the box, it was something someplace else that knocked it off.  Out they went.  Then they called wanting to know if the modem was working?  What's a modem?  The guy laughed and said he will return to check it out and to be sure we have Internet.  Guess he didn't believe me.  I did tell him I was computer illiterate.  Sometimes that is fun. 

They did fix it.  It does work and now my computer is attached again.  Yea!!!!!  I'm back!....
