gah, technology!

So, this morning my rear derailleur died semi-dramatically on me (it is now hanging only by its cable), changing "I should get my bike looked at by a pro sometime this summer when I have time" to "I should get it fixed ASAP." On the first day of a transit strike, of all things.

Then, between appointments, I open up my laptop, and it freezes on me. Badly. And has been spotty in starting up and freeze-y since, thus preventing me from doing much of anything with it.

I'm going to be running around trying to resuscitate my technological extensions for a while. Goodbye productivity for the same while, probably.

So, maybe I won't be buying your laptop :P

Well, if it comes back from the shop with shiny new parts, I'm still planning on selling it in the fall.

Well, it looks like all I can sell you is parts. The logic board, repaired once already, was shot.

On the good side, I bumped my computer-replacement plans forward a few months, bit the bullet, and am now in possession of a shiny new implement of digital-hubness.

Post to follow when I'm using my own computer.
