and internet chose to go down. It was early, so I said, I´ll watch TV for a while and maybe watch the news. But the TV was down too. And I did not have the house phone that is free to call to Chile. That is one of the reasons why I wonder if I should have a combo of internet-cable TV and phone with the same company. But other people tell me none of the others are good either. So I took a nap and I woke up not knowing what time it was. I took my pills and discovered that I had internet again. I returned to the wonderful post "USA - What May Happen Now" and read more comments. It´s late now, but I am not sleepy. I slept 3 hours while the modern world was down. What do you do when that happens?

I have the combo here and they go down occasionally. Usually the cable is on regardless. It is nice to have another phone incase something happens so you can call to report it. We are lucky it doesn't happen very often here.

@celticeagle The worst is that the company will charge the same to all of us.

I have my cell phone, but I have discovered that when that happens, the whole neighborhood has the problem.

@marguicha I was pleased that I was ready to switch off anyway. I hate it when I'm in the middle of lots of posts etc and bang, the power goes off.

I call the company and complain, complain, complain. Glad you are back to the modern world.

I will not spend my cellphone money in that. They will not mind me and I cannot send them a dragon to boil them in fire

When the internet is down and there is also no cable available, I either go out for a walk or I read a book.

Hi friend! I sleep at least 6 to 7 hours a day. I think the last time I slept for few hours was when I was trying to beat a deadline. Hum..Ahhh..I remember now..It was when I was tasked to have a talk for a seminar. I was fidgety. It was my first time and I don't want to fail or disappointed my superior. That was why, I did not sleep much just to make sure everything about my presentation was accurate.

Ours goes down now and then. Usually just work at something else. Right now my biggest challenge is learning to do more on my tablet with my computer down.

I can´t blame this on the weather. The day has been sunny and no wind.
