f*cking technology
first the downstairs computer died. one night Anand turned it off, and it never turned back on. I hated that computer from day one. I had wanted a laptop a few years ago and instead Anand brought home this hulking beast of a machine that tied me to the downstairs. over time it became buggy and slow and crashed and froze and generally caused problems. so now that PC of sh*t has been disassembled  and is cluttering up my office floor for the last week while Anand tries different ways of reviving it. i would like to just put it in the recycle bin and never see that PC of sh*t again. and now, to make matters worse, the printer has apparently died, or at the very least, has emphysema. it makes a horrible wheezing sound when i turn it on. ugh. soooo annoying. so now i can't ship my orders, and the mess in my office is annoying me. now i know why Jules told me that OCD can lead to serial killing. that mess makes me want to kill something. haha. well, i guess i'm going to go occupy myself with cleaning out underneath the bed. i'm sure there are a lot of allergens under there, ha ha.

This is an older male chauvinist observation, but technology is a lot like women; ya can't live with 'em and ya can't live without 'em ;-)

Make sure you can salvage the hard drive (asuming that's not what caused the death). You can then get your data off because I don't know of anyone who really does regular back ups.

thankfully we have an external hard drive and do do regular back ups!

Y'know, it was one of those comments - "I bet if I say that, they'll be the one couple in 1000 who DOES do backups!" LOL

haha, so true isn't it! i had also moved most of my important stuff to my macbook. but it's a good reminder to keep things backed up once or even twice!
