Cut off from the world...

... Or so it felt like for the last week.
Our DSL was down. The company was upgrading their stuff and suddenly we weren't online anymore.
Now, several calls (by cell phone mind you, our DSL-dependent phone was naturally not working) to a "please hold and we'll help you" *insert 30 minute wait here* and hopeless advice, they finally figured out there was an unstability on our line. No shit?
Anyway, it's up at the moment. I'm hoping it stays up, but there's your explanation for why I've been away.
