And then, to add insult to injury, Mister Computer went tits up today. It had been limping along on its last legs for a year or more, had to restart it often. I learned the hard way to do restarts, not hard starts from shutdown--had a hard time getting it to come back on. Well, today, I shut it down instead of restarting, took a nap, got up to no start at all. Dead as a doornail. Sometimes the on button lights up for just a moment, and the fans start momentarily, but no joy. I suspect the power supply, but who knows?

I actually had another PC on standby, bought it a while back. It's what I'm using right now. Having to start from scratch, though, I need to get my documents, tax records and such from the old one if possible. Unfortunately, the new PC is running Windows 8.1. Oh joy.

I was jonesing pretty bad this afternoon with no cable and no internet, I was reduced to listening to AM radio.
