The other day, I arrived home to learn that the Internet had gone out. Literally gone out, as our router was suddenly kaput for no reason other than it decided I’m not allowed to have nice things anymore. In addition to the Internet problem, one of the spring balances in our front window had similar feelings about what I should and should not have and simply fell out of the window, causing it to crash down and smash my middle finger.
