wireless internet, you are so cool

Well, I finally bought a wireless router. That would be rowter... not rooter. I will do my best to say it rowter, but I guarentee that I will still say rooter in my head. And reecies peecies.

I set it all up on my own... (okay okay, I called in some professional help)

But anyway, an hour later, I had everything hooked up and configured the way it needed to be. And so far so good, I have "excellent" connection in my room and no one has tried to steal my signal - yet.

And so far, its AWESOME to have signal in my room. Basically I spend time here sleeping and changing, and thats about it. Nothing extracurricular.... so its just this room that just holds my junk and my bed and im only there when I need to use one or both of those things.... But now I can do something functional in my room. Not that sleep isnt functional.... but working on my laptop is much more functional. So far I have done grading and watched Thank You For Smoking. It is a small step, sure, but at least it is a step.

It has also reinforced my previous notion that kids should never ever ever have personal computers in their room or any other place that is secluded. I am not a porn watcher, but if I was, wireless internet and a laptop would be the perfect combination. My kids are going to have me watching like a hawk.... At least, I hope that I am able to do that.




In other news, VA Beach was a blast, I had a wonderful time... here is a picture of me and Pam. Little sleep was had, the race went well, the weather held off, and overall it was great. :)



That is about all I have to say for now.


Signing off....



from my room!
