What “tomorrow” brought

Well, it’s official now, my desktop computer is dead.  Leigh-Ann thinks it’s probably the power supply.  At least that’s cheap to fix, if you don’t buy the power supply from Dell or Dell’s approved vendors.  I haven’t seen my email since the wee hours of Monday morning because I can’t remember my passwords.  I’m sure there’s more bad news in there, so I’m thinking of just never looking at my email again.  Frankly, I don’t think I should touch anything that has any sort of power supply - we seem to be killing off everything electric, slowly but surely.  Last week, the pool motors finally died, so we’ll soon have a mosquito pit in the yard.  Our microwave started its death throes a couple of weeks ago when it decided to turn ON when the door was opened while it was plugged in.  We can still use it, but we have to unplug it when we open the door.  However, it’s started making a burning smell, so it will die completely soon, I’m sure.

For something fun, here’s part of the Justin Timberlake/Beyonce “Single Ladies” video parody from SNL.  Unfortunately, NBC has made YouTube remove the skit videos, while at the same time NOT making the clip available on their website.  Stupid.  Annoying.  Nonetheless, I loved the skit and I can’t get the song out of my head, nor Justin Timberlake lisping, “We’re the dancers.”  I’ve never been a big Justin Timberlake fan, but every time I see him on SNL, he wins me over again with his talent.  He’s a funny guy.

Next entry: I miss my desktop! Previous entry: ugh, power was shut off yesterday
 
  1. Yikes! That is a scary microwave.
    And I wouldn’t have the faintest idea how to blog on an ipod. I am impressed.
    Hope tomorrow brings something better.
