ya know, some days, i think all things tech hate me.
my laptop monitor is on the fritz. i open it, turn it on and the darn thing flickers until i open and close it a few times.
it's probably a short somewhere, but how in the hell do you fix that? LOL i'm just hoping the extended warranty i bought covers it.
if not, i'm gonna have to figure out how to run a regular monitor out of this laptop.
then tonight, i go to record Criminal Minds and CSI:NY and i swear i saw the little "REC" flash on the screen. the red "recording" light was on. i saw "slp" on the screen.
but the tape? has nothing. nada. zip, zilch. last week's stuff.
what. the. frak?
grrr!

Date: 2006-04-20 06:06 pm (UTC)i have a disk of four eps waiting for later.
i'm slowly encroaching on the end of the series. it will be sad.
but then i have some movies to watch. and some books to read, if i feel like it.
actually, i've been looking for good susan/talia fic. i have found that most of the pages seem to have vanished into the annals of the 'net.
i just finished an unfinished piece that was really good... i hate that.
i'm sure you understand. (seven wonders anyone? ;)
