It’s not a physical limb but rather the lifeline that keeps me connected to the digital world – my internet 🛜 service. Yesterday was a breath of fresh air as I enjoyed my daughter’s internet and watched my favorite team dominate on the football field. But now, as the clock inches closer to noon, I can’t help but feel a sense of unease.

The internet service technician is scheduled to arrive today, and I can’t shake off the nagging thought of being disconnected. It’s surreal how reliant I’ve become on this invisible force that keeps me connected to the world.

I imagine how things will go!

As the doorbell rings, I rush to greet the technician. A friendly face filled with confidence and expertise assures me that they will do everything possible to restore my internet service promptly. With a glimmer of hope, I guide them to the room where the modem resides, hoping for a quick resolution.

Watching the technician work is fascinating. Their skill and knowledge shine through as they troubleshoot and identify the root cause of the problem. Each passing moment fills me with anticipation, yearning for the moment the internet will spring back to life.

But what if they can’t fix it? What if I’m left in a state of disconnection for an extended period? The unease resurfaces, and uncertainty clouds my mind. Will I have to adapt to a world that feels strangely disconnected?

Minutes turn into hours, and frustration begins to show on the technician’s face. The problem is more complex than anticipated, and disappointment washes over me. The prospect of being disconnected for an extended period looms ominously.

With a heavy heart, I thank the technician for their efforts and bid them farewell. As they leave, I’m left to grapple with the reality of the situation. The internet, once taken for granted, now feels like a distant luxury. Will I have to confront the possibility of functioning without it?

In the days that follow, I find myself adjusting to a slower pace of life. Without the constant influx of information and connectivity, I rediscovered the simple pleasures I had overlooked. Meaningful conversations with loved ones, immersing myself in books, and neglected hobbies become my new focus.

Wait, I want my internet back. I don’t want to have meaningful conversations with loved ones. I don’t want to immerse myself in books and neglected hobbies. I neglected them for a reason. 😭

I WANT MY INTERNET 🛜 BACK PLEASE! Will I get it back? Stay tuned for part two.
