I'm feeling moderately human after my trip, although the process to get "up" to moderately human has taken several days.

I also have a lot to do, but I am being blocked by a succession of fails about things I have to do.

Fail #1: QWEST FUCKING DSL
I want a libertarian to explain the market to me again.  I REALLY do.  That wonderful thing, the market gives me 3 choices in broadband provider - all of them crap.  For various reasons I'm lumbered with Qwest who have effectively been down for 3 months and today admitted that no only didn't they have a clue when the interwebs would be fixed in Seattle, but that my modem had crashed and they wouldn't replace it.  So I found myself in the annoying position of having to buy a new modem for a service that doesn't really work.  Words failed me.  Those words that didn't fail me I used on their customer support team.

Fail #2: Chase Online Banking
I'm trying to send myself a wire.  I can't.  There are many many many many many reasons why I can't, and all them are annoying.

Fail #3: Client N
We were due payment under the terms of the agreement and invoice on the 2nd Feb.  There was an argument you could make for them paying last week, or at the VERY latest tomorrow.  Instead they're paying next Wednesday.  No explanation is forthcoming.  It's just that's the way they role.

All in all, not a happy camper.
