When you are an internet addict trying to buy a house and maybe launch a new feature on your website, it can be a little frustrating when your connection is spotty.

It can be downright maddening when every device in your life stops communicating with the outside world at once.

Evidence of potentially villainous hair. Note its awesomeness.

To whit: The wireless in our house died, followed by the entirety of the internet connection. The GPS on my phone has stopped working. My broadband card keeps sputtering and dying.

I’m not sure if the static electricity contained in my awesome curls has mutated me into some sort of electromagnetic pulse deploying super villian that surrounds myself with an electronic deadzone, but pretty much every wireless device in the vicinity of my body has stopped working. It’s only a matter of time before the effects extend to radios and digital watches.

This is a steep price to pay for having one of the best heads of hair in Philadelphia, but we all have our burdens to bear.
