Just went through pretty much everyone's worst fear...

...Not having internet >.>
I just moved in with my grandma for the next 10 weeks because I have an internship starting over by where she lives. After I got unpacked, I asked "Do you have wifi?" "Wh... what's wifi?" "It's wireless internet." "Um..."
So she showed me her computer, and what she does with it. I told her the box she had behind her computer was the router, and how it hooked up to the computer. Turned out it needed a password... She had no clue what it was.
We eventually found this little folder of info that my dad left her when he set up the computer. She found a paper that she thought was the password. It even said "wifi password." It was an important date, so she thought it must be it. Nope. Tried another code that was on the piece of paper. Nope. Tried again on caps lock, nope. Then I deciphered my dad's shitty handwriting, changed a G to a 6 and tried again... Nope. Tried one last time with the new password with caps lock, and it finally worked.
Freakin...

Seriously, one time I even made a cheat sheet with all of my mother's various log-in names and passwords as my desktop. Sure enough, five minutes after I leave her alone with the computer: "Terry! Can you come in here! It won't let me log on!"
I swear old people just get a rise out of watching us slowly turn pink as we try not to yell at them. . .
