incommunicado
This morning, I left my cell phone at home.
When I try to log into Gmail (or Google Calendar or any of the other associated Google Account services), I get a 404 Not Found messag elike this:
Not Found
The requested URL /sorry/?continue=http://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin%3Fservice%3Dmail%26passive%3Dtrue%26rm%3Dfalse%26continue%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fmail.google.com%252Fmail%252F%253Fui%253Dhtml%2526zy%253Dl%26ltmpl%3Dyj_wsad%26ltmplcache%3D2 was not found on this server.
When I log into Squirrel Mail to use my @gorfajn.com addresses, the program tells me it can't find my prefs file and so I cannot proceed.
Almost nobody has the number for the telephone on my desk at work, because I try not to use it for personal calls. I can't post it here, anyway, so I don't know why I'm even mentioning it.
I can't call anyone from my work phone (besides Julian) or email anyone from my work address (besides Julian) to tell them just about anything, because all of their phone numbers are stored in my cell phone and all of their email addresses are stored in Gmail. And calling/emailing Julian is kind of pointless at the moment, as he is in solid meetings all day long. I can probably remember some of the phantom addresses and phone numbers if I try, but it's probably not worth the effort, because I don't really have anything important to say. I'm just feeling very cut off from the world at the moment (co-workers excepted).
Update: The universe laughs at me. Not two minutes after I posted this message, Gmail appears to be accessible again. And here I thought I'd have a super-productive rest of my day. Actually, I'll have a super-productive rest of my day, anyway, becaues I have to.
