Well, the cabling got installed yesterday, eventually. They arrived at 8AM and left at 6PM. There were 4 of them working on it all day. Yikes

It's good to have the cabling, BUT, my FRICKEN LAPTOP DOESN'T WORK. ARRRG. The network card in my laptop is seriously flakey, and whenever I plug it in anywhere, it starts spewing crap onto the network, and causes the hub to lock the port it is on. Gah. It was working fine before the cabling.. I suspect however that the cause of this all is that the card really doesn't like being used with cables over 5 metres in length. Gah. Useless piece of crap laptop. Also, my mum's computer now crashes at startup and I'm unable to work out how to fix it...

Of course, I didn't get much of a chance.. after the cablers left mum was really giving me an extra hard time about everything.. like making dinner, then cleaning the entire fricken house. Gah. Having this cabling installed is something I've wanted for the last ooh.. 2 years? Finally it's installed and 1) it's not working properly and 2) I'm being forced to do things other than make it work properly.

In the end, I just slammed the door and went to bed. Mum was in one of her nonrecoverable shitty moods, and anything I did would have just pissed her off more and got me more upset. Hope she gets over it sometime today :P Tho early indications are that she won't.

Gah. I haven't had such a crappy day for years :P
