Day 118: Computer Headache

I have spent literally the entire day fighting with Dell's customer service.  And I'm still where I was three weeks ago.  There are enough horror stories on line, so I won't detail this one.  But this is quite literally what I have been looking at all day.


I feel as if I'm in a vortex.  Heeeellllllppppp mmmmeeeeee!!!!

Better day tomorrow.  Yes!

OH!  I just realized I'm three away from 100 posts!  What to do...what to do...

Any ideas?

And here's another quick, kinda fuzzy, photo of the cardinals.  Just because I love them so.

I am sorry about the computer headaches. They are no fun at all. :(

You got 3 in one shot; that's gotta bring you some kind of luck...

elizabeth: I'm more frustrated at my lack of knowledge about them, actually. If I knew more, I would probably know the right questions to ask or, most likely, wouldn't need to deal with Dell at all.

Maureen: I know! I'm so hoping. They were buzzing around like mosquitos. Only prettier. And not annoying. So I guess mosquitos isn't such a good analogy. Hmn.

I'm so sorry about the computer struggles - that really is the pits. But I DO love the cardinal pic. Cardinals were my grandmother's favorite so now they're a favorite of mine.

Wasn't it a nice time when one was still forced to use pencil and paper...wishing you all the best to get your computer fixed and a wonderful Thursday as well.
p.s.: Remember the day after my computer 'died', when I had to deliever a speach about X-Rays at the university doing it all wich chalk, instead of power.point - heard some strange commments by the professor...yes, time has indeed changed.

I love the cardinals! Love your gorgeous pictures, Lynn. I don't know if you remember me from YSA days in Edmonton. My maiden name is Harris, and I hung out with Jim Holt and was Beate's roomate. Anyways, I remember you. And, um, hi. :)

Tracy! Hey! Sorry this is so late. Ends up that I should (and will) check my spam folder on a regular basis. I hate that I missed comments.

Your face looked so familiar when it showed up on the followers tab. Thanks for placing it for me. Now I DO remember you, which is something, considering how self centered I was in Edmonton. Honestly--I was all about my woes and disappointments for much of that time. Not pretty! How ever did you find this little spot? I'm glad you did!

I saw your comment on Mike's blog, so that led me to yours. It's a small, small cyber-world!
