How do you feel today?
Moderator: Orlion
Well, the Irish grandmother has now left so things might get back to normal now. I've got heaps of work to catch up on <sigh>, but that's life! Son of Seareach yesterday learnt how to say "Echidna" (he says "e-kid-dah") after seeing one near the beach. Of course, now he's finding them everywhere (behind our couch, under the bed...great imagination he has!).
Good luck with your other tests LF; and Tazz I thought you were going to be computer-less?

I am overtired and my nose is runny. 
I can NOT afford to be sick again.

It'd take you a long time to blow up or shoot all the sheep in this country, but one diseased banana...could kill 'em all.
I didn't even know sheep ate bananas.

Power supply had died, as well as the motherboard. Thing is, they dont stock the same motherboard, so that's why it took so long - had to be sent overseas. I am basically demanding a new system on monday. Not going to wait for another 4 weeks.

Lore, I'm no computer wiz, but have had my share of problems and my sister's partner fixes computers etc. I don't know why you would need to get exactly the same motherboard. Your computer should be able to take a variety of different ones...at least that's how I understand it (maybe I'm just making this up!Loremaster wrote:Power supply had died, as well as the motherboard.

Thanks for the advice, and that is what I will be doing.Seareach wrote:Lore, I'm no computer wiz, but have had my share of problems and my sister's partner fixes computers etc. I don't know why you would need to get exactly the same motherboard.

BUT if the computer was relatively new, I'd definitely be demanding a new system. Some computers are just prone to be problematic!

First day of what is nearly a four day weekend. I get my normal days off -Friday and Saturday - work Sunday night, then am off Monday for the Presidents Day holiday.
Sunday nights on holiday weekends are usually ludicrously quiet, so I will probably get to work on continuing education most of that night.
And my kids have no school today or Monday, so we should have a fine weekend.
We had some very interesting weather last night. I did get to have a very tiny adventure driving home in crossing a flooded area of the road that runs between the hospital where I work and the freeway.
Am happy today.
My kids are happily watching the Olympics and playing; the dog is curled up on top of my feet; the cats have surrounded me in furry purry sleepy piles.

I had a night full of nightmares...none of which I can remember much of this morning except for children in carts/buggies that were pulled by goats. And at some stage I remember stumbling across an "internet cafe-esque" shop in a deserted town that had computers in it which looked like they'd been assembled from spare parts. What all *that* means I have no idea!
