Sick

July 15, 2006

I’m not feeling well today. Actually, it’s been a whole week already. Monday, my migraine made me grumpy for most of the day. Tuesday, I got a runny nose. Wednesday, I felt like I’ll be having a fever, which carried on until Friday. Then this morning, as if things aren’t worse enough, my throat started getting itchy and now I’ve got a cold and I’ve developed a knack for imitating a dog’s bark.

Today my son and I are spending most of the day together. I hope he won’t catch the virus from me.

We’ll be having sinigang for dinner. Maybe I’ll take in lots of the broth to try to loosen out the stuff building inside my nose.

48Kbps at last!

A serviceman from PLDT called up this morning and informed me that he’ll be coming over to check on our phone line. He came at about 11am and check the little box that connects our phone line to that bigger box in the street post.

Apparently it wasn’t our primary line (the wire that connects our phone unit to that little box) that caused the problem but the secondary line (which connects that little box to the street post). He switched connections in that bigger box and voila, the line was clean, my connection rate is now 48Kbps.

The one who previously fixed our line may have not done a good job at making that connection, causing the problem on our side.

All’s well that ends well, everything’s back to normal.

Now about that DSL connection… :)
