The new modem arrived today and I can finally feel like I'm alive again.  It's nice because I was actually expecting it to come tomorrow.  Having no Internet though, has sort of been a nice change of pace.  I managed to get a lot of reading done.  I actually finished a novel this morning because I was so bored, but that's actually nothing compared to the tons of useless shit that I consume while I'm in front of a computer screen.

Quit Facebook Day is in less than a week.
