Computer Blues

The Lamps vs. Technology. Who do you think will win? Considering our computer has won Rounds 1, 2, 3, 4, and well, ALL rounds, I'd bet money on technology. We've had huge computer issues over the last year and finally broke down and bought a new one in May. And of course, here we are a month and a half later, with more problems. It started around the time I decided to start a blog. The keyboard decided that the letters s and k; numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6; and the ? were no longer needed, so they just stopped working. Granted, you can usually do without the letter k, but the letter s is pretty useful. That made my blogging and emailing quite amusing. Then a day later, the mouse decided it didn't want to work either, and the entire keyboard stopped working. So here we are with a brand new computer, but we can't use it without a keyboard or mouse. To make a long story short....after talking to Compaq for a long time, we have to FedEx our computer to them, pray that none of files accidentily get erased, and wait 7-10 days for it to come back, hopefully fixed. That may not be a big deal to some people, but I'm a Willis - a computer geek (thanks Dad!).

It's going to be a long week....


Moral of the story...don't count on too many posts in the coming week or two.
