Oh, Sweet Computer

I have my laptop back. Finally!!

August was a month of things breaking down on poor little Curly:
1. My car broke down on the ramp of 280S heading towards Oakland off the busiest intersection of San Jose. It was a nightmare.
3 alternators + 1 battery - 1 AC = one pissed off Curly
I think my car is going to shit the bed soon, so I'm looking into buying a Vespa.

2. My coffeemaker broke one morning while I was getting ready for my volunteering gig at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center. Luckily, I aquired a used Mr. Coffee from my old work place.

3. My computer crapped out on me. Hard drive failure, followed by a broken CD ROM provided by the Geek Squad. I finally got my computer back from the manufacturer, only to find out that they had misplaced the AC adapter and battery. F*#@! The nice fella at the counter took care of it and ordered us the new accessory. We recieved it today. All in all, we had no computer for three weeks. :(

Thank you to the Rose Garden Branch of San Jose Libraries for providing me with my daily internet fix. It's amazing how much I rely on my daily dose for survival.
