Well, the problem wasn't with my modem. The place in the back of my 'puter where the network cable plugs in is all loose and wiggly. Apparently it's come apart from the mother board. So of course this isn't something that's easy to fix. My parents are out of town for the rest of the week, so I think I'm going to swipe the network card off my mom's laptop and see if that'll work. If that doesn't work then I'm going to be completely stumped.
It is still under the extended service plan thing at Best Buy, so once I've got stuff backed up I can take it in and they'll have to fix it. But I'm not about to let them have my 'puter unless I've got copies of absolutely everything on it!
Hopefully my mom's card will work, then I can at least get on-line from home through the weekend. After that, I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I really don't want to be without my computer for a long period of time.
I have a feeling I'm going to be spending a lot more time at work, just so I can do my blog-reading!

what is it with laptops and those connectors being shitty?? The purpose of laptops is to travel, but that seems to make all these problems show up!! That was the same prob. I had...loose connector just different spot! You'd think they would make them more durable!!
