My laptop died! HP Pavilion v6000 and it just stopped working today. Shut off, went dead, won't reboot. Thank the stars for Harris Amelia, my baby laptop, and having everything either on the external hd, dropbox (which is the best thing ever--why aren't you using it? See, it saved me!) or in emails. And all my pictures are safe too. Whew! But man! Talk about lousy timing--this doth suck.
I will likely have to replace it, according to what I Googled. The problem seems to happen often with this laptop, which sucks. I did get a full 2 years out of it. Think they do that on purpose? I think so.
I won't replace it with a big laptop though, not this time. Back to desktop, as Harris Amelia is a real trooper, and I am quite happy to tote It around with me when I need a laptop. I am just disappointed that this happened now. Evil!
My daughter's new computer is a gorgeous, ridiculously-awesome iMac monster, but I am not going to convert to an iMac...can't afford that, anyway. Ha, can't afford a replacement at all right now! Oh well.
Job hunt chugs along at a slow pace. I've been sending out a few resumes a day, and tomorrow will go get some resumes printed so I can mail those out to different companies. It seems almost futile, sending out resumes like this. But eventually, something has to click, right? Thankfully I am not in dire straits financially...but that isn't that far around the corner, either.
My writer's group is going to meet tomorrow night, and it has been too long since I've bonded, so am looking forward to that, forward to getting out of this house. At least it is beautiful weather here! The huskies have been outside all day long, enjoying it. I don't blame them.
Okay got some beta'ing to do, so best get to it. I just can't believe that stupid laptop of mine. How dare it go kaput now! Argh.
I am not amused!
