Happy Saturday Morning!

sigh.. not a happy Saturday out this way. I had been having some minor computer problems since having a monitor die in March. Turns out when that monitor blew, it also damaged my motherboard. Well, last night the on-board video took a dump, and that barely-year old computer won't fire up. It's all under warranty but that doesn't help this weekend. Oooh, this is also on top of having the room air conditioner in my bedroom go out on Wednesday night.

Being a geek, I had a backup to my BBS server here... as it is a BBS, it doesn't need fancy. Freak won't read over 40 gig hard drives, and my main hard drive is an 80. So.. I am in a band-aid situation here. It also won't read my fresh backups with all my sites and content and stuff in build! ARGH!! I have the cavalry (read brother) out raiding his computers and might be able to salvage my precious 3 days to sit and wallow in porn.

At least I have my flaky old hard drive with most of my programs and such available.. and I can FTP and get onto the net as most of you have discovered this morning. You can frustrate the living hell out of me, but I will find a way to work around it!!!

Let's see if I can be online for OTB... if the cavalry makes it here with some sort of computer, I just might.. old dog doesn't have a sound card!!!!
