Nix9to5

Where have you been?

// July 15th, 2010 // Life in General, Work at Home

Right here, actually.  For those of you not following me on Facebook, my laptop crashed as soon as we got back home from Hot Husband’s reunion in Kansas.  I frantically called HP, who sent me through a bunch of steps on the computer–most of which I had already attempted–before deciding that my hard drive was morally, ethically, spiritually, physically, positively, absolutely, undeniably, and reliably dead (thank you, Munchkins).  They shipped me a new hard drive and recovery disks.  Th hard drive came the next day, which I found pretty impressive, but I had to wait several days for the recovery disks.

With much hopefulness, I installed the new hard drive and booted up the recovery disks.  Alas, in the words of the Coroner of Munchkinland, my computer was not only merely dead, but really most sincerely dead.  I called HP again, and they sent me a box to ship my dear ol’ laptop far, far away for repair.

I just got a shipment notification from them that my laptop has been overnighted to me.  Perhaps, it will arrive tomorrow in working condition.  With my laptop back, I’ll be able to do a better job of keeping Nix9to5 up to date.  It’s much easier to get the work at home jobs done when one is not trying to share a laptop!
