One of the tips for sticking with Project 365 is to take a photo that encapsulates your day. Monday, January 5, 2009, was the day of the dead modem. I work from home, and I require internet access, so that was a rather big problem. We'd already unplugged for 10 minutes and plugged it back in, per Comcast's instructions, and it still hadn't worked. We set up a service call for Tuesday, but in the meantime, we tried to swap it at a Comcast payment center for a functional one. None of the payment centers had functional modems to swap for, though, so we brought ours back home. Just before bed, we plugged it back in and hooked it back up so that the tech could see that it wasn't working. Only it was! DH, out of habit, picked up his laptop to check his fantasy teams, and clicked the internet, which came up just fine. We were just baffled. Maybe it just wanted a vacation day and a car trip. Anyway, it is working now. Long live the modem!
