I have no internet!

I mean, I do, at work. And on my phone. But my internet connection (which, um, our landlords give us for free, so we can’t really complain) at home is dead.

It’s the worst!

Beyond the obvious fact that this is terribly disconcerting (what happened on Tumblr yesterday?!!), and generally annoying, it also makes me seem like a liar.

One of my coworkers asked me yesterday if I got the email he sent the night before.

“Um…no? My internet doesn’t work!”

“Oh. mhmm. And is your printer out of ink? And did someone steal the flash drive that had your project on it? And I guess it goes without saying that your dog ate your homework…”

Sigh. That’s right. I’ve become a parody of a student.
