How I Hate Technology, Let Me Count the Ways...

My email is not working. I would be fine with that, since I don't email people that much, except for the fact that I have to email all of my teachers for the homework that I missed when I was absent. This presents a major problem. 

I have a MacBook. That means that Mail is one of my applications. So I'm used to just clicking on Mail and having all my email pop up right before my very eyes. Since my Mail application is now not working, I have to go the long route and actually go on the internet, log in, and click "get mail." I know I sound lazy, but really, does it have to be so complicated? It's not like anyone would actually want to hack my email account. There isn't anything in it except for forwards from my friends and emails from my band teacher about going to State in two weeks. Plus the newsletters from Eddie Bauer and Bath and Body Works that I'm signed up to receive. Hopefully it will be fixed soon...
