So obviously, Gmail hasn't failed once. Well, at least not since last 
week. Discount that, and it hasn't failed since... March?

In my experience, "noticeable" periods of downtime for Google services 
are surprisingly common.

This is also discounting the fact that there are about a dozen things 
that could go wrong between you and Google transiently. The more you 
learn about how the Internet works, the more surprised you become that 
it hasn't all fallen to pieces yet.
