Burning questions...Internet help!


I'm without internet at home!  Eeeek!

Any advise you could give me would be greatly appreciated!  

It's been out since a storm we had the other night.  We've unplugged everything, waited and plugged it all back in multiple times, but nothing.  I was on the phone with Comcast waiting for a representative for about 20 minutes last night {my call is very important to them} but I hung up after I noticed that in my network settings the ethernet port is flashing in and out.  I guess I should have stayed on the line, but I thought maybe it was the actual ethernet port again.  grrrrr.  I'm not making a very good case for my Mac right now!  However, it is almost 10 years old!  I'm not convinced it's the computer either.  I like to think it's Comcasts fault!  ;)  Oh, and the light on the ethernet port itself on the back of the tower is flashing green...any idea if that's normal?

Help me please!  I don't want to be without internet all weekend!  :(  

I guess I'll have to call Comcast again if I can't figure it out.  Boo.

On a happier note...It's friday!  We made it to another weekend!  Hooray!  

What are your plans?

We're participating in the Relay for Life in our area this evening, and then laying low tomorrow {as far as I know}.  Then, Sunday, we're having a barbeque with our dads!

Hope you all have a glorious summer filled weekend!  ;)

happy father's day...


he is one of my best friends and favorite people.  
he's always there to lend a hand or give some encouragement or advice.  
he's the kind of guy that will do anything for the people he loves.  
he's the retired guy that mows the lawns and plows the driveways of 4 or 5 of his neighbors just because he likes to help them out.  yeah, he's that guy.  everyone loves him.
he can almost always fix cars, sometimes just for fun.
he's always up for going out to eat.
he can build or fix just about anything.  
he loves a good story and tells the best ones.  
my dad is the best dad i could possibly ask for.  he's been there for me through thick and thin, always with a smile and a wink.  i love him the whole world's sky.

happy father's day, Dad!  I love you!

oh, and the picture was taken at the lake a couple of years ago.  he let me style his hair in a faux-hawk.  isn't he the cutest!?
