Net split...

terryclothYesterday, I woke up after leaving the computer on all night to download the I7 patch to find that the computer had crashed after a couple hours.
Today, I woke up after leaving the computer on all night to download the I7 patch to find that the downloader still thought it was downloading, but it wasn't getting any bandwidth. Rebooting revealed that Earthlink was no longer accepting my password. According to their tech support, it's a problem on their end and I should try again later, but that means that not only did I not get anything downloaded overnight, I can't leave it downloading while I'm at work today.
*sigh* I have most of it from downloading at work yesterday, though, so I should still have it all before it goes live. Assuming it doesn't go live today, and that Earthlink is back up again tonight.
Last night's CoH was mostly screwing around with Gnomorre with Quarrel. I got on as Aci first, but the conversation with the coalition went like this:
Me: "Can anyone help me with a timed mission I've been waiting to take? The text warned that I'd need a group, so it might have an AV in it. Probably level 40-41 enemies."
Guildmate: "Maybe."
Other Guildmate: "Hi!"
Me: "I don't have a team yet or anything... it's one of Kelly Uqua's missions. So... anyone interested?"
Entire coalition: *silence*
No luck finding a pick-up group either; only one person of appropriate level was LFT, and he was logging off as I asked him. I wanted a team of at least three (so that it would actually be an AV, if appropriate) so I needed at least one other person my level.
In other news, Lost was less weird and more 'disappointing' this time. Mr. Ecco vs. Locke in a crisis of faith: Whose worldview will survive? Tonight on pay per view!
