Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

In the spirit of which: I now have my 4th new hard drive for this laptop in less than a year. I'm still resetting everything and trying very hard not to get my hopes up that this will be the one that works. I was so angry at Dell after I talked to them that I had the options of punching a brick wall or getting trashed.

... Apologies to all the people I drunk-IMed Wednesday night.


Other news: 20th Century Boys continues to rock my socks off. Details at 11.

Seriously though, the series is unbelievably good. I'm sad I didn't read it years ago. I will finish it soon and then put up thoughts all over my journal. BECAUSE IT DESERVES COMMENT.

Computer: Broken again.

I called tech support and they told me they couldn't do ANYTHING for me unless I had anti-virus software installed. Never mind the fact that I had a new hard drive installed a week ago and that my computer is doing the same thing it did for months before I had the new hard drive. Of course, I downloaded, by accident, the exact same virus I had before in the last week of surfing the internet. Magic.

Work: Getting better.

Life: Very busy.

Me: Going to bed early.

I've got a wicked case of the Angries going right now, and I don't want to take it out on anyone. Except tech support.

THEY KNOW WHY.

sigh...

Just had my computer fixed.... again. I got a new LCD screen as well as a new hard drive. That makes the second LCD AND the second hard drive I've had to have replaced on this laptop in the last year. They said if they have to come fix the problem again they're just going to give me a new computer. Which might be nice, as much as I love this computer, I've never had a laptop give me this kind of trouble.

But for now I just have to go through and re-set the computer to my settings. At least it's easier since it's only been 6 months since the last time I did it.

It kills me that I can't remember all the usernames that are supposed to be on my LJlogin thing.
