Sunday night my hard drive expired, and yesterday geeks for hire arrived and for a price, put everything to rights, except that my email filing cabinent is gone as are my favorites. Sigh. All my nice bookmarks, etc. have to be re-created, and the cookies are also gone, so Amazon and the bank and hundreds of others have to be reconstructed. This is a major major suck up and pain in the ass, quite frankly.
Took up the entire day yesterday and today I am loading all the windows patches, Norton, all that stuff back. I resent the time and the effort and the aggravation. Major bummer, but on a scale from 1 to 10 probably only a 5. Perspective.
In the meantime, ideas for the California book continue to come. My friend says it has something to do with the planets being in alignment. Somewhat dubious.
One of these days I'm going to suck it up some more and get an Apple. In the meantime, spring marches along apace and the slough is gradually assuming some color.
Spring peepers sound like the anvil chorus at night, so we are NOT having a silent spring.
Onward, if not upward,
Grapeshot
