First make hot chocolate. Then conquer the world

December 13, 2008 by Andrea Mrozek 2 Comments

I have a new computer and a new router. I am told I must program the router, and that this will be easy–that my computer will “see” it and all will be well. I’ve been putting this off. I expect the worst. The system will crash and–horror–I’ll lose my connection to the Mighty Internet. Today’s the day–here we go. Fare thee well, faithful readers, this may be the last you hear of me for the whole weekend.

First I make hot chocolate, then I conquer the world.

    I’ve always found this to work, myself. 🙂

    Make sure you password protect your wireless! You don’t want the neighbours surfing on your dime.

    It must have been the hot chocolate that made it all work.
    I am sad you have such low expectations for yourself and Apple products. I would not lie… I had faith in both!

    And yes – it is both password protected and a closed network – you can not surf on her dime and no one will know the network is even there…
