My SO went downstairs on Monday a.m. and said, "Honey, what's with your stupid computer?" This is something he says often because he doesn't always get the subtleties of computer usage - it's usually something pretty simple. So I went downstairs and no power! I pushed the button and no connection - I couldn't figure it out for love or money. So I've been spending the week at the library and Kinko's checking e-mail and waiting for the repair people to come and put in a new power supply.
Last night I went downstairs, looked at the PC and leaned on the case. Suddenly something clicked into place - so I hit the power and here I am. Somehow the case came detached. Don't ask me how. So now I need to call and tell the repair guy not to come (for that - they still need to put in a new modem).
Anyway, I'm back. Doing the alto solos in a concert tonight and tomorrow - excerpts from the Messiah and the Christmas Oratorio - and that's pretty much it for me until Christmas Eve at my church job. The main thing I have to do this week is figure out the grades for my German Diction class. That is the main thing I dislike about teaching - I just HATE doing grades!!!
