Well, then. I suppose I can compose a short post while I'm fighting the hotel internet service. Hopefully, all these posts will backdate like I think Blogger can do and actually be associated with the correct date.
I'm having a good time at the Music Library Association Convention, but I am getting increasingly frustrated with the hotel. You see, most people of my age have at least a slight internet addiction. We know it and, therefore, expect wifi wherever we go. This hotel promised internet access (for a price) but is failing miserably.
So, in order to keep up with my classes - which is doubtful at this point - I have caved and paid the good people at the Loews Hotel about $11 a day. As most of these systems hook onto you IP address, I expected the internet to be available throughout the hotel. Not so much.
You see, I'm on the 15th floor and the conference is on floors 2-3. Someone thought it would be brilliant to keep the access points disconnected with the expressed purpose of ticked off all conference goers. So, I have the internet in my room, but not during or in between the sessions I'm attending all day, each day. To top it off, what's available in my room is slow. Really slow. My lectures keep lagging every 30 seconds or so, if it plays at all.
*sigh* I guess Monday and Tuesday will be busy homework days...
