May. 22nd, 2014 08:25 pmWell, we've had a week of shennannigans and no mistake.
So far we've had 3 engineers from our internet provider and a visit from the plumber. The former have still failed to correct an inexplicable problem with our modem hub thing whereby it spontaneously re-boots at arbitrary intervals (more frequently the more devices there are connected at any one time,) and the latter to plumb in a new shower.
It's been a week of arsebiscuits, essentially.
The new shower at least seems to work. Thus far however the engineers have given us a new modem hub thing and replaced all the internal connections and poked the junction box outside and no one knows why it's still broken.
We have yet another engineer coming out tomorrow to probably scratch his head and shrug at it some more. As they are wont to do when they have no idea what the hell is doing it in the first place.
JR's mum is also coming to stay on Saturday and she is bringing JR's nephew with her. They'll be here till midweek cause it's half term and whatnot.
I like JR's mum plenty (She's a mad Scottish woman) but I would be lying if I didn't add that I am exhausted and in the worst possible frame of mind for company right now. I am at the height of a misanthropic cycle and would severely prefer to spend half term asleep and/or antisocially.
So tired... so very, very tired... so very in need of a week or so of late mornings and extra sleep. Only of course I get shuffled to the Burton room for the duration. It's easier to surrender a bedroom than my computer space for the better half of a week. But still. Tired and crabby Llama is tired and crabby.
