you don't wanna hear about my good day

[wildestranger]

Last night my laptop stopped working. There was a grey screen of death and some very disturbing clacking noises. Today I took it to the Mac shop and the nice young man told me that it was the hard disk, and they could fix it for me in two weeks. I've had my precious for about two and a half years, so it wasn't under warranty, but luckily I'd bought a three-year care package with it so it will all be fixed for free. Unfortunately, this means I will probably lose a number of unfinished documents, including all my help_haiti fics, and will have to buy a new Word for Macs when I get it back. And probably Snow Leopard. So there goes my tattoo fund.

In other news, my hands are fucked, my knees are fucked, and I've got 100 essays/exams to mark in the next few weeks. Which will be hard without my home computer, and the uni computers seem calibrated to pain my joints in every possible way. So I won't be spending much time online for the newt two weeks, but will be checking my email so if there's something I should know, feel free to poke at me.

Two weeks without internet AND without a computer. What am I going to do with my life?

Ugh, that sucks. How much does Word cost for Macs, anyway? :\

Oh no, I'm so sorry for your precious! And your joints, of course. Have a whole ton of internet-love right now. ♥
