Hehe! We believe you..but, one person having an issue doesn't constitute an actual issue with the server...

I would start with a simple computer reboot.
If that doesn't work, try a complete network reboot:
- turn off all devices on the network, including internet modem (tell your wife her tv is about to go down for a couple of minutes)
- wait ~20 seconds
- turn on modem and allow it to cycle up
- turn on any routers that lie between your computer and the modem; allow them to cycle up
- turn on your computer
- attempt to log in to the public login server (did this fix the issue?)
- log out of the game completely
- turn on any other network devices that you have attached and allow them to cycle
- log back into the public login server (is the issue back?)
There can also be packet loss/high latency that causes issues like this.
These issues are much harder to trouble-shoot unless you have experience in doing so. A lot of times, your isp is the culprit for such issues..especially
when they appear out of the blue.
For any fix like this, I do not recommend a re-install of your game..or os..unless you are 1000% that the issue lies in the current install.
