Mixed-Up Monday

· ·

Well it is a mixed up week.  I was lost on Friday and found and we all hung out in London having fish and chips and it was great.   The Carolina Cats found me in London and Max found me on Fleet Street and that was exactly where I was.

Everything was going great and then blam.  The internet died.  And stayed dead.  Maybe we ate it with the fish? I don’t know but it was a bummer because like the Carolina Cats and Max had never ever been Sunday Guest Stars (or at least not for like a really really long time and now I couldn’t even tell the world!).

Broadstripe promised us they’d have someone out by 8 but no one ever came.  I guess their power was down so the first person the woman talked to at 8 was all, we can’t tell you anything.  Then the Male called at 9 and they were like, we still can’t tell you anything but we’ll put you down for tomorrow.  Then at 9:20 the tech called us.  He had had a really really long call because apparently he doesn’t know Macs and couldn’t find something really important on a Mac to fix the cable and it basically took him all day so he was super behind.  He got here around 9:40 and worked until like 10:20 or so to get our cable fixed.  There were a bunch of little things wrong but nothing that seemed to make the cable die like right now, dead. However, a few of them should make the system less glitchy than it’s been at this house (due to the original guy hooking things up wrong–we have a special cable thing that goes to all the rooms in the house so we can have internet hardwired throughout, so no time loss with wireless AND it’s more secure).  We’ll see.

So that was Sunday.  Then today I was supposed to have a cool photo of all of us because the Woman will be running down to Portland to see her cousins who are in a dog show that’s in Vancouver WA this week at the Inn at the Quay for any Portlanders who might want to go see dogs.  It appears to be mostly Tuesday through Friday which is really inconvenient so that means that Ichiro and I are stuck with the Male because he has to work.  This means this will be a week without Chey and I don’t know how anyone is gong to handle that but I was going to give you a really big picture of me to last you but I have to honor Max.

I hope you appreciate my sacrifice.  And I hope you all survive.

  5. Well that’s quite a mess…
    Those internet fixer guys just don’t understand the importance of our blog business!
    I’d say they owe you some fish-n-chips for all the hassle. Or at least some fish.
    ; ) Good luck the the male. Sounds like a challenging week!

  14. O noes! Lost in space! Internet space, that is — and that’s as big as he universe!
    Sorry to hear about your connection troubles, and that we won’t see you much this week. We just hope you survive the time with the Male!

  16. That is terrible. Hope things get better really soon. It must be working since you are on today. Chey we will miss you. Take care and Happy Memorial Day. Take care.

  17. Great job Max!
    We know how hard it is to be without the innernets.
    It just seems to us that we are on a deserted island without access.
    Mom was really worried we would loss access when that storm came through but we didn’t. She lost access to Satellite Radio so she had to use innernets to get her Radio station (thank goodness for the iPaw) to help her sleeps. But, she didn’t sleeps too well anyway with that storm raging last night.
    We are all glad you got everything fixed.
    Hello gorgeous Miss Gemini…it’s been very scary here the past few days.

  19. It does sound like a very mixed up Monday, but Max you sure do look comfy, not a care in the world.

    I want to thank you so very much for your condolences on the passing of Casper. It was very much appreciated. Thank you again.

  26. I don’t think we will survive, a week without Chey and Arty Mouse missing to boot. We just don’t know what we will do.

    We are very impressed with your Woman’s high standards for cat food. We thinks we may move in with you. We would certainly eat better.

    Iams has come out with a Healthy Naturals Line we do not know if it would meet the Woman’s standards are not, but would be interested in what she thinks of it. http://www.iams.com/cat-food/formula/healthy-naturals-cat-food

    We likes to buy local ideally we would like to grow and raise our own food but Mommy says until Daddy retires it is too much work for her.
