Well....my internet issues continue. I called the local store today, they gave me a new modem, to try and resolve my connection issues.
I got home, set it up, called Tech Support for finishing the set-up and found out that the freaking TOWER has been having issues....for at least a week and a half, of not two weeks.
The exact length of time I've been having issues.
I did get a new modem out of this, and got my account credited for half a month. So I'm good. And the new modem does seem to be making some difference. We've were dealing with 10-15 minute waits for pages to load (with multiple clicking of the refresh option). We're now loading at normal speed, with minor hiccups requiring reloading.
I dread checking my mail. I haven't been able to get into it for over a week.

I'm currently laid out here in the bed with my foot up, while I set up the new modem. It's been cramping all morning and I have a burning sensation in it/on it. Feels like my foot is on fire. Still swollen too. After stopping at the computer store, we went to Hel-Mart and bought some staples. I was planning on grilling tonight. So I bought steaks and beer. They're marinating now in the fridge.
I cleaned out the fridge while I was getting the steaks ready. I was going to go visit Virginia this afternoon, but I realized now there's a mountain of dishes to be done. And then there's the laundry issues. I need to wash my work clothes for this next week.
So I suppose I'll go do that.
