desayunoencamaTaking deep breaths.
I hate this feeling of being cut off, though.
It's horrible that so many of us are so at the mercy of things like gmail being down, though.
And it doesn't matter if it's gmail; any network can crash or go down like this. It's happened with mac.com when I had a paid account with them, ditto with AOL years ago in the dialup days.
(The cell phone networks get oversaturated sometimes, too, but I don't feel as desperate when that happens, and that's usually a momentary occasion. Not as vexing as being cut off from email. Especially when I'm trying to work!)
