Life Disconnected

Here is something that was unexpected for me, that beibg trying to game nowadays without an internet connection. Generally speaking, gaming can obviously be done without the need of such connections. But as I have been finding out, DLC seems to disappear whilst disconnected and that is just a big pain in the ass.

We tried to get back into the swing of things with a session of Borderlands and to both of our suprise, we had access to none of the DLC expansions. So here we are, both of us at level 60 and trying to level off of level 34 monsters/Claptraps. Sure it can work, but I don't think either one of us was prepared to kill that much baddies for little to zero exp.

I think the hardest thing to have no access to has been Netflix. I am glad I at least got to finish watching Chobits before we moved out. What? Despite my inital thinkings about it, the Anime was pretty good. Maybe one of best I've seen even, if that means anything.

Oh and I should forget this little ditty: Our ISP apparently has no actual store/location so paying our bill to be able to transfer service was another pain in our collective backsides. Seriously, are these guys doing that poorly?
