mornings have been stranger

I slept really... not. I woke up at 5:30 and went to the gym. Updated my iPod. My network is all fucked. I was getting 50% packet loss for a while.

--- xxx.xxx.xxx.1 ping statistics ---
231 packets transmitted, 132 packets received, 42% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 1.214/1.792/29.794/2.531 ms

Locally! Seems okay after power cycling everything and swapping the cable. When in doubt, swap the cable out. Ah, the things I learned at Netcom...

--- xxx.xxx.xxx.1 ping statistics ---
77 packets transmitted, 73 packets received, 5% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 1.344/3.096/6.689/1.111 ms

5% is still totally unacceptable on a local network, but I'll take it.

Sleep now?
