Yes it has. A very very terrible week.
I appreciate everyone's concern though :nigga:
Basically, heres what happened. It went out friday morning, there was a storm the night before so I thought it might have been that and they would fix it. It became saturday and it still wasn't working. So I tried all the basic stuff (resetting router and modem etc.) and nothing worked. I called Comcast and they told me to get my modem checked out, thus leading to the other bane of my existance.
So on the way to best buy to get the modem checked out, my car starts to rumble. After some switch hitting, I got it to work again. It scared me so I decided to let the mechanic look at it, since I was like, 2 minutes from him. On the hill after the bridge leading to Specks Chicken, the car stalls completely, including my steering wheel and brakes, so I have to quickly throw on my blinkers and hit the parking brake to slow the car and roll it into that clock shop nearby. After a few minutes, the car decides to start again so I limp it over to the mechanic, who luckily was there dispite it being a weekend. I let him know what happened and he told me he'd look at it on monday. So for the majority of this week I've not only had no internet, but also no car. So needless to say, it truely sucked.
On to Monday, he tells me all thats wrong, and I basically take the root that costs the least, which is still senselessly expensive. He fixes it all by tuesday, but I couldn't pick it up until today because I couldn't get a ride on tuesday, and wednesday was the stupid forth of july.
Meanwhile, I call Comcast again on tuesday and tell them to come and check the wires. They said the soonest they could come was today between 11-1.
So today, I wait here for hours, he shows up late as hell, and apparently it was some stupid thing they put on the wires malfunctioning or something. In the meantime, my router was also being a mess, so he had to fix that too. After that was done, me and Dylan go to pick up my car. So I pay my needlessly large amount of money to "fix it", just to have to take it back a half an hour later. We decided to stop at Specks for lunch, and after, the car wouldn't start again, and when it did, the car continued to act crazy, making this really obnoxious noise, and reving really strangely. So I left it there, and I am not paying another dime for that car, I think they did this intentionally to make some money off of me now, since it seems like his prices are going up for his amounts of work. I'm gonna be getting another mechanic's advice once he looks it over. If he tries to get me to pay anymore, I'm taking it somewhere else.
So in closing, with near 100 degree heat, no internet, and no car, life is terrible.
Plus, I missed everyone here.

Like you wouldn't beileve.
I basically just spent a lot of time just either pacing or just laying around looking at the clock trying to pass time.
At least when the car was working, I could just drive around to pass the time, or go someplace to do something. But I didn't even had that, and in it's place I just had boredom and the long wait to figure out what was wrong and how much it would cost. I'm still there even now. And now I'm mad because it's not fixed even though I just paid an abserd amount of money for it to be fixed.

So I'm hoping the mechanic will let me buy the parts personally, it turns out some part he was worried might go just did, so I need to replace them, but if he buys the parts, it's gonna be abserdly expensive, so I found a parts wholesale website that sells the parts for like, less than half of what he gets them for. So I figure I should see if I can buy the parts myself and then just have him do the work, reducing the cost dramatically.
I haven't heard back from him yet. I might call him soon.
