In the last 5 days the only time I've been able to get online is when I'm at work. For some random* reason my cable modem is no longer working and no matter what efforts I put forth to correct the issue the damn thing sits there and blinks endlessly to no avail. At the moment I do not care to call and infer about any changes to my account but if I don't soon my TiVo will run out of program information, and I simply cannot have that happen.

On top of my internet service on the fritz my cellphone absolutely refuses to jump back on it's normal service. When I look at my phone I see that old-school antenna icon in the upper left. Where did my little "E" go? You know... the service that slightly faster and slightly less annoying that what I'm dealing with now? Last night all I wanted to do... all I wanted to accomplish in my life for those precious hours was to send a photo I took of myself with my phone to Facebook. Every. Single. Time I tried to text the photo it would sit there for 5 minutes thinking and then dump the process. Argh! So frustrating.

At this point I'm ready to give everything up and start all over, but what would be the point in that? At least I found my flash drive two days ago. You know... the one that had my only copy of my personal budget (and which is still showing $10.05 missing out of the blue. Ten bucks, I say!).

Sigh...

Be seeing you.

*I blame Comcast. Those commies!

 



about

Jason P. Thompson is a 20-something web and graphic designer. I currently live in Bedford, IN and work at three small-market radio stations based in the same city. At work I wear many hats including IT Consultant, Webmaster, Graphic Designer, Assistant Program Director and Morning Producer. I do work in radio, so assume that I only get paid for one of those jobs.

I went to school for a career in TV or film but I have found myself down many different careers paths since that time. Perhaps I will never have a life long career (even though I have been currently employed at the same place I was hired on in high school back in early 2001), but that's OK with me.

When not at work, I enjoy keeping up with film, television and graphic design. Television is a particularly "bad" vice of mine; I try to give every new show at least one chance before committing one way or another.
