Into the Fire

Passionate thoughts about the world of writing and the Power of God

Sometime New Year’s Eve afternoon my internet explorer decided to quit working. I have been on the telephone for literally hours trying to get the problem corrected. No joy.

So, as I sit here typing this little post (from the library) on why my New Year’s Day, etc., posts have not appeared or why I haven’t been able to comment on the comments, I realize how much I depend on the service to have access to my friends I’ve never met in person. Not that I didn’t know. It’s just that being unable to correspond via email or my blog or even others’ blogs has felt stifling. And frustrating to the max as you’ve no doubt experienced yourself with computer problems.

I shall return when the doors to this cyber-kingdom are unlocked for me again. Otherwise I’ll be camped out at the library for awhile: a thought I don’t wish to entertain for long.

Stay with me, alright?

God, this is so microscopically small on the scale of important things for you to answer, but please help me get this problem fixed anyway. You are gracious to care about anything we do, so this is my simple dilemma which could use your assistance. Thank you, Lord. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

    When you get it back, download Firefox and perhaps another browser. Then you won’t have all your eggs in one basket. I prefer Firefox anyway.

    Thanks, Janet. I’ll keep that in mind. As it turned out, it was a router-modem problem which a man in another city across the state (a friend of a friend) took less than five minutes via telephone to figure out and instructed this completely non-tech-savvy person how to fix in just a few minutes. Ridiculous that three Qwest Techs, Microsoft, and Dell who never got back to me couldn’t figure out in hours of instruction. Crazy stuff.
